    Keyboard Issue?

    Yeah, it doesn't look like something I really want to do. I have no fear of disassembling electronics, but it looks really quite delicate, and I don't want to void the warranty by screwing it up. The alt key not working isn't the end of the world and doesn't get in the way of it playing most...

    Keyboard Issue?

    No amount of mashing around the Fn key makes it work. Unfortunately, op_test_inputs is inaccessible to me from the Terminal, as I have no access to the '_' key or tab for tab completion. :) How involved is it to disassemble the Pandora to get to the keymat and put carbon on?

    Keyboard Issue?

    No go. None of the special characters show up. I noticed this issue at first boot when I was trying to set the clock, and : wasn't working. Opened up Terminal, tried a bunch of special characters, get the regular white characters rather than the blue characters. Shift key works and gives me...

    Keyboard Issue?

    Tried fn-U and fn-I while having Terminal up and running. u and i show up in the terminal, but the fn key doesn't seem to be registering.

    Keyboard Issue?

    So, I've received my Pandora. Everything seems to work great, except for one thing. The Fn key. I loaded up Hotfix 5, and tested the keyboard. The Fn key is supposed to light up when you press down on it, isn't it? So, is there some quick check or repair I can do to the keyboard? The...

    Authoritative Source of Pandora Apps and Games?

    Speaking of finding and downloading games and applications - I am pleased with the PND format, however, there is a critical weakness in the appdata scheme. Where and when I find the PND, there is often no documentation -- just a straight download link. So, I do not know what folder to create...

    Authoritative Source of Pandora Apps and Games?

    Are there any sources or lists of Pandora applications that is authoritative and kept up to date? I was looking at the site maintained by CraigX, apps.open-panndora.org, but it does not appear to be entirely up to date -- i.e. PSX-ReARMed by Notaz is noted to be R6 on the apps.open-pandora.org...

    Pandora Desktop Environment Prototype Try 2 (screenshots And Videos)

    I've updated the theme dotfiles with MDave's provided wallpaper and icons and window decorations. It's looking real nice. Screenshots are below. I placed the icons into the 48x48 folder, so that it gets scaled down, as shown below. Below is a nice example of the window decorations. The...

    Pandora Desktop Environment Prototype Try 2 (screenshots And Videos)

    Awesome, DaveC. I'd be interested in seeing more of your icons along that style. Could you send me what you have so far? You have my vote for the default Pandora theme, if you have the rest of the icons that nice. I don't believe Matchbox supports SVG however.

    Task Switching

    There will be a title bar for the desktop manager. Additionally, we will probably be mapping the task switching key to the 'Pandora key'. Easy as pie. :)

    Merry Christmas -- Warcraft 2 Dos On Pandora!

    Fallout is pushing it. A lot. Warcraft and Command and Conquer was a 486-era, early Pentium-era game, really. I wouldn't expect games that required a faster Pentium to run well at all, and those that did, are Windows-based. Besides, Fallout was a pig on the minimum system requirements, which...

    Pandora Desktop Environment Prototype Try 2 (screenshots And Videos)

    I think people are indeed interested in the retro style theme. However, you should try it with an actual Matchbox installation rather than photoshop an image together. :) There's a lot more to it than just a screenshot of the purported theme.
