That fixed it. Thanks you very much.
I guess if I had been keeping up with my reading on the Pi, I would have already known this.
Thanks again.

Problem using 1-wire
I am having trouble using 1-wire devices on a few of my systems. Other systems have no problem. The first clue that something was odd is that the "/sys/bus/w1/devices/w1_bus_master" file does not exist. Yes, the driver modules are loaded as shown by lsmod lsmod Module Size Used by w1_therm...

Re: Displaying an HTML file remotely
I had to solve a similar problem - how to interface a web page to a program running on the Pi. What I do is create program that does all of the GPIO, sensor reading, etc needed for the task. Then I add a thread to that program that listens on a socket. I use Apache and PHP to run a PHP script to gen...

Re: Serial Sniffer & Send XON
If the terminal server is sending an XOFF, it is because the fire panel is sending data faster than the terminal can receive it and it is about to overflow it's buffer. The Pi solution may be able to receive data faster and not have this problem. If it does have the same problem, then you could turn...

Re: Controlling 32 lights with the Raspberry Pi
I am controlling lights in my house using the X10 protocol (see http://www.x10.com/ for more info. Cheaper but compatible devices can be found elsewhere.) This is connected to my Pi via an X10 computer interface on a serial connection. I don't control anywhere near that many lights, but the X10 prot...

Re: Run shell script at boot
/etc/rc.local is the usual place to do this. Be sure to run the script in the background (add a & to the end of the line) otherwise rc.local won't exit until your script completes and startup will hang. Of course, if that's the behavior you want, the leave off the &.

Re: Convert Java to C?
You would have to de-compile the java source from the jar file, then convert all the java code to C, including replacements for all libraries used. That would be a LOT of work. But, yes, assuming you did all of that, it would run in native mode and be faster. My guess is that it would only be a litt...

The same interface has now been slightly reconfigured to control the temperature during...
Re: USB HDD

Re: USB HDD
Thanks for letting me know you posted here also. Here, the info will help more people. try this: apt-get install sdparm then sdparm --clear=STANDBY /dev/sdX (where X is the appropriate letter for your drive) if that works, then you can run it at each boot by adding it to /etc/rc.local As a last reso...

Re: Can linux be made to service one application.
The best you can do is load a minimal system with all un-needed services disabled.
Several people have posted links to minimal Raspian images on this board.

Re: PI MOTD
if you put that code at the end of /etc/bash.bashrc it will be run every time someone logs in.
(Or is it every time a bash shell runs? That might not be what you want.)

Re: how to trigger gpio pin with 24v
I suggest a simple voltage divider http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage_divider use resistors of 1.5K and 10K and you can drop the 24v to 3.1v the current will be greatly limited as well. Since I don;t know what your input current is, I suggest you measure it before and after the divider to see if i...
