This happened on my macbook pro , where the metal actually bent and cant be put back for love or money ...
So it's not a slight to the team if this happens, when even apple has this happen to some of their devices.
I usually start my development work by using one of the server images from here - http://www.thoughtpolice.co.uk/vmware/
there's no reason for X etc to be present is there ?
Ubuntu server install is like 190 odd megs compressed.
Download, update , add additional packages, recompress and share.
We did some more evaluation and every should be completely portable, after the opengl/es port is done.
even then , it might work with a compatibility layer out of the box.
PHP being stupid with memory ...

it was really designed for short running processes, such as page requests.
Actually. javascript might be a very very good language for games soon too.
v8 (the chrome engine) is completely separate, and there are SDL bindings and the like.
code.google.com/p/lov8/ -- a port of the http://www.love2d.org game engine (which is lua based).
PHP itself is toooooo damn...
I suggested the same thing a few days ago, with a plan of action

I've been looking into learning some Lua, because in my mind it looks like the bastard child of javascript and python, and i stumbled across love2d.org
It's basically an SDL binding for lua, but it also includes things like a physics engine based on box2d and a useful packaging mechanism.
and...
i had an idea for a xmpp based xbox live analog, which would partially work towards solving this - http://www.gp32x.de/board/index.php?/topic/52076-pandora-live-pandora-network/
the big issue is never being able to rely on X11 or specific things to be available, so not being able to do an...
I cant actually find much of a design document as such for the app store.
All i know it's a completely bespoke development. I'm just going to give a bit of a lower level overview of how I would put the whole system together if I were starting from scratch, using tools I already know and am...
It's presence, notification and a useful central component to hang other services off of.
other services include things like match making / online play, leaderboards etc.
it's plumbing that allows us to build a more connected and cohesive community.
Its already moving that way with the...
Yeah, and apparently pidgin ships with the device, so libpurple is on the system already .. it supports these xmpp extensions out of the box -

And i don't think a full featured client is needed. At least in my mind the device / network connection...
Yup. i'm just unsure of how to get the same effect with the software libraries available on the pandora, plus all the stuff that would be displayed.
IE: can we even depend on X11 , and will some full screen apps really dislike us trying to layer windows over them (probably). The same way that...
On the server side, this would greatly depend on how the pandora store is being developed. I feel fairly strongly that there should only be a single login for the 'network', which ties into the online presence notification, friend list stuff and store. they can be loosely coupled however.
For...
Yeah, which is why i mentioned needing more invasive options. For some applications it would
likely need to modify the code to include the message sending. (see for example running a specific rom, not
just whether you are running the application).
Then there is the question of how to do in-game...
Interesting. Although a lot of what it suggests is easily assemble-able from off the shelf components.
No need to write a server, no need to write your own protocol.
All you do is send some XML to the jabber server. All the libraries you could ever want are available online.
There might even be...
Now I know this is putting the cart before the horse here, but the recent discussions about the online store made me consider what further features we could provide on the pandora.
Basic social networking
From the mock ups / screenshots I have seen of the store, it seems as if it is going to...
