Hi, I've been using BD for some years now - it's stable, fast & runs great hosting a family website on a Pi. It uses the CMS for pages and blogs on one duckdns domain name. I'd like to be able to display CCTV feeds from another house server (zoneminder) on a page so thought I'd be able to use th...

Hi, I used the Pi and and Arduino to successfully control Maplin 433MHz sockets before. I'm trying to get this iot-433mhz working now because it looks neat. I am following this https://github.com/roccomuso/iot-433mhz Clean install of Jessie on a Pi B+ sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist...

Hi, I solved mine. The problem was in the .profile. For whatever reason the xinput command had stopped working & was preventing any chosen desktop (LXDE/openbox) from auto logging in. For info I progressed using the openbox desktop then launching kweb in .profile in kiosk mode. The axis inversio...

Code: Select all

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ ls -al .X*
-rw------- 1 pi pi 56 Mar 14 21:12 .Xauthority

Frustrating!

I'll setup another card and copy the new pi home folder in place of this one to see if that fixes it, or start again.....

I tried raspi-config first and it never worked so I posted here. I did both these lines, rebooted and there is still a X Window login prompt. I actually tried to login with the pi credentials and it will not login! Could something be stopping X from logging in at all? At one point during the tests r...

Thanks. I compared my kernel .config to the one in the Pi2 procedure and realised that the eGalax module is already in there. I eventually managed to get the screen connected to the Pi3 and after calibrating the axis it just worked. No more kernel build needed.

Hi, I was in the final stages of setting up my touch screen having migrated my app from a Pi1/Wheezy to Pi3/Jessie. All was going well until I rebooted and the desktop no longer auto logged in. Using raspi-config does not solve the problem. The X-server starts but it sticks at the login prompt where...

Hi, I'd like to add the egalax touch screen module to the pi3 kernel so built the kernel as I have done before on wheezy/a pi1: git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux cd linux make mrproper make menuconfig (add Device Drivers ->Input Device Support->Touch Screen->USB Touch Screen D...

stevePIman

HI, I hadn't. I'm currently trying to calibrate the raspbmc installation which includes the modules. It seems the X/Y coords are flipped over for me & touch is only picked up in the lower right corner. I'm using this site : http://markamc.traki-iski.co.uk/?p=50 Thanks for getting back to me, Steve

stevePIman

Hi,

The files hosted on Google docs aren't accessible. Are they still available anywhere?

My bad. I need new glasses to avoid typos!

Cheers,

Hi,

I have an eGalax touch screen (lsusb indicates such) and if I follow the instructions I get "Error:No calibratable devices found" when running xinput_calibrator. I'm running 2014-01-07-wheezy-raspbian.

I think I maybe a few modules short in the kernel.

Any ideas?

Cheers, Steve

Thanks for the clarification

Hi,

FTDI support have just let me know that there are some FTDI drivers specifically for the Pi. I'll hopefully try them this week.

Try here: http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/D2XX.htm

Big thank you to FTDI for these.

Mine's hanging too when using an LCD via USB. The logs indicate FT8U232AM is detected.

stevePIman

Prolific RS232<->USB are working... but as I posted elsewhere, my ttyUSB1 sometimes disappears and a ttyUSB2 is created. It seems to do this whenever it wants to whilst the Pi is running unattended on my LAN. I'll have to dig around some logs.

stevePIman

Hi, I use a prolific USB<->RS232 cable with some success. As suggested, try a couple of commands first to verify the Pi sees the adaptor: lsusb ls /dev/ttyU* With my double ported cable I get a couple of lines of blurb mentioning Prolific from lsusb and the devs ttyUSB0 and ttyUSB1 created. Here's m...

Hi, I am powering it via a hub. Have the LCD working fine with Windows & the FTDI drivers that I installed for the Arduino.

Has anyone had the FTDI serial USB interface working on the Pi?

Any joy with email yet? I've installed mutt & tried to configure it to use gmail... no luck yet. First it wouldn't save the certificates so I used openssl to manually grab them from imap.gmail.com and saved them... then mutt stopped complaining about certificates and just says "Login failed...
