    compiling on Pandora with Code::Blocks -> PND

    Hi, I am still a devoted Pandora user and plan to keep using it for another couple of years :) I recently noticed a bug in the ScummVM software and I lack the skills to compile something and create a PND. I am glad that Farox is still around and wanted to help with that. That said, I am a...

    Powkiddy A13

    Seems like a very decent retro-gaming device (up to PS1) that is pretty cheap. I like the form factor with joystick/buttons, but I don't like the red plastic toyish look. For that price you can't complain though and all reviews I've seen are very positive. No community around this product as far...

    I have been playing around with Slackware see here and tried to install it on a Toshiba M203/EA 64 GB SD card. Installing Slackware didn't work on these cards only once after formatting to EXT-2 but followed by error messages and endless fsck loop. So I wanted to be sure the 5 cards I bought...

    WTB: Open Pandora [EU/UK] [already bought one thx!]

    Hi, Now Pyra's are being shipped maybe someone is interested in selling their unused Pandora. Not looking at other sites, rather buy one from someone from this community. I don't think shipping outside EU/UK is worth it, from the Netherlands myself - any model is fine. Condition doesn't have...
