If you are trying to attach this directly to the Pi using that ribbon cable dont bother. I tried on what appears to be this exact model (this is a slave to the master DVD car player with a 3.5mm jack as input from master) without luck. I had someone that knew about this kind of stuff and said that y...

Pi + GPIO + transistor + running lights + external running light power = possible
Pi + MPD + MPC + LIRC + adafruit LCD + button shield + output to stereo = possible, maybe not so reliable in a car.

I wrote a complete guide using that TSOP4838 and the GPIO

Code: Select all

ps aux | grep -i python

Code: Select all

killall python

You might need to tweak the killall command with the python script name instead or in addition to "python"

SFTP = SSH/SCP a different protocol from FTP FTPS = FTP with encryption SFTP cannot be used in regular browser URLs because it is SSH/SCP. You need a client like Filezilla or WinSCP FTP can be used from URLs in a regular browser, and I think FTPS can also. If you want to use SFTP from outside your L...

This may be a little basic, but

Code: Select all

raspi-config

Enable the ssh server in this config tool for ur Pi.

Also, I don't add my username where you seem to in putty. It is not the problem though. I make the host/ip field on putty this:

Code: Select all

pi@192.168.0.214

ednl, you are right I just checked. Apologies on a hasty response. ctrl+alt+backspace does RESTART rather than shutdown X.

Killing the Xserver then, you want to use a terminal with the service xxxx stop command. Where xxxx is your display manager.

ddxfish

if you setup ur Pi using "raspi-config" you can set a key combo to kill Xserver when you setup your keyboard in regional settings. ctrl+alt+backspace will be suggested on keyboard change to terminate the X server, but it is optional and defaults to no if I remember right. Second option, op...

I would love to know if you find a way, but I have personally looked into this and found no way to run Midori without X server. My answer is no, but you should get a second opinion. The closest I came to this was having a VERY slim version of XFCE (not lxde!) and awesome window manager. It used 110M...

The question you asked makes very little sense but I guess you want to know what servers people install on the Pi to display web pages that use CSS html and JS? *Apache is what I use if its a low traffic site (it uses more memory so not so good for high traffic on the Pi) *Another option for http se...

Hey does anyone have any experience with mining bitcoins with the Pi? Setup cgminer 3.1.1 with a USB block erupter Raspberry Pi Model A (70mb ram in use, 160mb free) Raspbian (latest, and already ran apt-get upgrade) 16MB memory split for video USB 2.0 hub powering the pi with a 1000 mA port USB 2.0...

200 words isnt enough to describe the pi! Important stuff about the Pi: *Uses about 10 watts of power *Is basically the same as an Android in its hardware (yeah people will disagree with this but its true) *Costs about $40 on amazon *Runs linux *It is skimped on the hardware (no real time clock!) fo...

Make a shell script with if statements that check whether a test file is present on the mounted drive.

if [ -e /mnt/usb1/mount.test ]

or something similar would be my preference other than the python script

ddxfish

5 volts larger than 1200mA into the microusb port is what the pi asks for

ddxfish

Need more information. I have had Girder running 247 for almost 10 years now, and your question still confuses me :) What type of home automation product, where does the signal go (give us an idea of how the packet should be routed through devices/PCs) etc. Tell me about ur setup If i get what you a...

ddxfish

Good stuff man. I like the info and I like the icons for Pi and Mac. That being said, I use a PC!

It would help to have these broken up into multiple pages too

Maybe we need a Pi wiki or something official. Keep up the good work ednl

ddxfish

So I have recently seen a Pi that was "backpowered" by USB through its USB port without a micro-usb. I have also powered my Pi model A with a USB to TTL serial cable, while at the same time supplying power through the micro USB power port on the pi. This is all theoretical, I do not plan o...

ddxfish

All of this sounds like insufficient power. It can cause every problem you list. Get a dedicated PSU for the Pi that runs at 1500mA or higher to test that.

http://radio.deepspaceradio.org:8000/deepspace.ogg You have to add the icecast ogg output file directly or whatever file format your URL is. Try opening the m3u or pls in a notepad and see if it has the address in there. I use this with my icecast radio station running on debian server on my pi runn...

Whether anyone has gotten this implemented, I do not know. However, the path to take is RaspBMC http://www.raspbmc.com/ It is XBMC for the Pi. I have found it best when the graphics memory split is at 128 rather than the default 64. You mention drivers and the Pi comes with a ton of drivers, I have ...

This is a good thread, I read all posts just cuz it is fascinating to listen to advanced paranoia running the tech world (it runs mine too). Ways to detect this? *If you want to really check whats up, find a network traffic analyzer and watch where your packets are going. This would not show u what ...

ddxfish

i think ur problem is

Code: Select all

hdmi_group=1
hdmi_mode=16

try it with those lines commented. Forcing a specific HDMI mode for me broke my audio out on my sony bravia (older lcd tv)

if that doesnt work, check your sony itself on input settings, see if you can change the sound source

ddxfish

What sensors do you need is what it boils down to, and what display are you going to output the info to? My opinion? Arduino is better for the sensor hardware part of things, but Raspberry Pi is better for the sensor software. You can use both if your setup is complicated enough. What kind of stuff ...

Es normal. Mi pi frambuesa funciona a 50 grados. XBMC esta mas rapido por el CPU (XBMC es 800mhz, Raspbian es 700mhz) y tiene mas calor. Lo siento, no hablo mucho espanol.
