A few years later, and I may, thanks to lockdown, have some more time to play with the notion of sound production on Pi model B, which could be any of the 2/3/4 generation, all of which I have used for in-the-box mixing/mastering (using Ardour, of course!) though not recording, or (due to lack of an...

That is interesting. Raspbian is 32 bit, and it is missing an aarch64 gcc package, it does not make since that a 64 bit package would be required for anything on a 32 bit os. Raspbian is indeed 32 bit, but it should be able to cross-compile/cross assemble for other platforms. The package is in the ...

Raspbian Jessie or stretch ? Though a full update of the OS should be first step: sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get dist-upgrade sudo reboot As my original post stated. Current up to date stretch (at date of this post): It's not a newbie error. Tried tagging it in aptitude to verify the problem? I t...

After an update/upgrade, noticed certain daemons not working. Investigated past the obstacle that is systemctl<spit> to find that (for example) transmission-daemon wasn't ship-shape. So, purge and reinstall. Still not working. aptitide whining that dpkg could not find the pi:pi user:group. That has ...

I did, after much paper-trail chasing and farting about, get a 3.16 or 3.18 kernel with decent support for many Line6 devices (inc Pod XTLive, UX2, KB37 and /almost/ UX8, which was pushing the Pi2's USB bandwidth, perhaps too far..) and a few other similar things, and an open source effects system w...

I've been using the Pi to do PIC dev using a PicKit2 (Specifically the Sure Electronics (China) built one, ISTR about a tenner, on ebay, and seems to be constructed at the very least as well as the Microchip built PicKit2, and prettier, if pretty PCBs are you thing) since a few days after my first p...

A fun one: Here I am, doing a bit of early morning fragging some poor unsuspecting beardless yoofs on OpenArena (Pi3, fully up to date Jessie, vc4-kms-v3d overlay loaded etc.) All good. neverput good, neverball good, oolite good, and.. well far too many things good, for summat that is supposed to be...

"So recently, I have been looking at buying a raspberry pi for some small, small server hosting. I was thinking of hosting a small email and web server with two of these. I am wondering if these small computers will be able to host a small server well." Short answer: If it's set up properly, that's ...
