Re: Install Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers on Raspberry
@ discozone I plan to have a go at getting Eclipse up an running on my pi too! So I'll certainly let you know if I get anywhere. But to be honest, it's not the end of the world not to have Eclipse.

Re: Blank Screen wanted!
You could use xlock.
You'll need two scripts:
lock.sh containing the following:
xlock -nolock -mode blank
unlock.sh containing the follwoing:

sleep 5
pkill xlock
Now add both lock.sh and unlock.sh to your start-up scripts!

You can edit .bashrc in your home directory. Add two lines:
alias java=/path/to/your/java/binary
alias javac=/path/to/your/javac/binary

alias java=/path/to/your/java/binary

Is there a good streaming media service in the uk?
Hi, I have a pi2 with Kodi installed. I'd like to have a streaming media service available. I have a few questions: #1 I've heard that Netflix will basically only work by using the 'PlayOn' service. Unfortunately, PlayOn is not available to people in the UK. Is there any way around this? For example...
