After my pandora crashed while playing on panmame the mouse pointer is frozen.it doesn't respond to the nub movements.I have already restarted the device 2 times with no success.hope someone can give me a solution without having to reflash. thanks
Thanks! I used to reflash all the time because of this. Your instructions saved me from the need to reflash this morning. Thank you.This is a common bug that happens when a program that switches the Nubs to Joystick mode crashes.. You just need to manually set the nubs to Mouse mode again.
Go to the nub configuration tool in settings in the XFCE window, set the left nub to Mouse Movement, right nub to Mouse Buttons and click the Write button.
Would it be a good idea to automatically set the nubs back in default/mouse mode on startup, to counteract this ?This switch to joystick mode is usually done in a start-up script on PND launch.. When the PND closes normally It sets the nubs back to the prior setting.. if this is interrupted it causes this bug.. These scripts are created by the person that packaged the PND and not some config setting.
That is indeed a good idea. I had this problem a long while back (caused by XCOM crashing possibly). Resetting the nubs back to mouse mode sorted the issue.Would it be a good idea to automatically set the nubs back in default/mouse mode on startup, to counteract this ?
Hey thanks! You should write "OpenPandora For Dummies!"You can right click the panel and click "add new items".
Then add "Xfce Menu". In the dialogbox select op-start.png as the icon and uncheck "Show title in button".
Also select /etc/xdg/menus/xfce-applications.menu as custom menu file.
Leaves the question: How to do itThat would be a good idea, so the last profile created by the nubconfigurator could be loaded on boottime.
If someone knows his ways around in the system. :mellow:The nubconfigurator needs to save a profile somewhere on the nand and mark it as current.
This one needs to be read by a script at startup and set the nubs to the settings it contains.
Should be pretty straight forward.
