Re: Configuring dhcpcd in Raspbian Stretch
I am also having this same issue. I have an access point up and working under Jessie and started with that configuration under Stretch. If you have yours working, I could sure use your suggestions. Thanks! Apologies but I eventually gave up as I was gifted a mini hotspot gizmo by a friend that also...

Configuring dhcpcd in Raspbian Stretch
Hi all, I'm trying to set up my Pi Zero W as an access point, as per the official tutorial here: https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/configuration/wireless/access-point.md However, I'm having some trouble getting dhcpcd to play nice. After adding the following to /etc/network/interfaces : allo...

Re: Python loop @ 80Hz
80Hz is a ballpark figure for the frequency at which I need to step the motors on the bot.
The PID loop will be running at ~30Hz since that is the maximum sampling frequency of my accelerometer

Python loop @ 80Hz
Hi all, I need to run a control loop for a robot at 80Hz in Python. Obviously there are various ways to do this using time/datetime etc, starting each loop iteration once dt has elapsed. I have two questions: 1) I have heard that when using time/datetime, the values may not always be accurate at the...

Re: nRF24L01+ SPI issues
Thanks for your reply. There is no error from Python, the only output I get is that SPI invalid argument error. I'm using this library, which uses Cython to essentially allow use of the Arduino RF24 library. Cheers, your approach might likely be the way I end up going, but I'd like to see if there's...

nRF24L01+ SPI issues
Hi all I'm using the PyRF24 library to try and use an nRF24L01+ radio module with my Pi. When I run this code: from pyRF24 import pyRF24 radio = pyRF24("/dev/spidev0.0", 8000000, 18, retries = (15, 15), channel = 76, dynamicPayloads = True, autoAck = True) I get the following error: can't ...

Re: Cannot start X from pi user
Update:
I can now launch the GUI by doing
xinit /usr/bin/lxsession
But still no luck with startx.
The message that I get after running startx is the same one I get if I close the GUI.

Cannot start X from pi user
Hi all I've been running my Pi headless for quite a few months now, and a few days ago I decided to plug in a monitor, mouse and keyboard, partly because I wanted to have a play with the Arduino IDE. Anyway. Booted to user credential entry, I logged in as pi, which is the user I use. Ran "start...

Wireless keyboard and mouse combo
Hi all I'm looking to buy a wireless keyboard and mouse that both transmit to one USB dongle which plugs into the Pi. I was wondering whether anyone has any experiences of these and any thoughts on which are the best models. My only requirements are that it's a real mouse not a trackpad, and that bo...

Creating new cd and ls function
Hi there. I'm a fair beginner to the Pi, and have a question for the pi gods :) The one thing that I find tedious when using the shell is doing "ls" after every time I do "cd". (I'm lazy) Just wondering, how easy would it be to create a function combining cd and ls, say "cdl...
