  • PanDebian v0.3.0.0 (Pandora Application)

    PanDebian v0.3.0.0 (Pandora Application)

    PanDebian is a system for making Pandora’s Angström and Debian play together. It is not a dual-boot but a chroot; other terms include “extend” or “overlay”. It will install a debootstrap-generated chroot of Debian to a loopback file or ext{2,3}-formatted SD card and give you direct access to it (no additional X11 instance, no separate window manager). It has a simple (albeit long, multi-step) installer, and once installed it presents itself as a PND launcher, which loads a menu in the upper-left-hand corner (provided by lxpanel) to access Debian’s menu.

    Changes:

    As of version 0.3.0 I am maintaining PanDebian on BitBucket.
    Updated debootstrap to 1.0.32, added wheezy as a Debian version option (untested).
    Made the installer support an update mode, to update all the PanDebian files without doing a full reinstall.
    Linked /var/run/ppp to the host’s /var/run/ppp.

    Version 0.33 released!

    This version has the following fixes and improvements:
    – Fixed a serious hanging issue introduced in version 0.24, caused by an incompatibility between my ARM7 code and libNDS version 1.5.0.
    – Improved the speed and quality of EGA Smooth screen scaling code.
    – DSi mode only: Implemented Smooth scaling for VGA 640×480 mode.
    – Added a new configuration option “EMSSize” for choosing EMS/XMS RAM allocation.

    Sorry about the past few versions having the hanging bug, it should now be fixed in this version.

    Also, I added the new EMSSize configuration flag specifically for you sverx, hope you find some use for it.
