Re: Problems Running TightVNCServer

Thanks for all your input kusti8 and also for your help T. I have now solved it and my Pi is working remotely on my home network. I found the solution by googling TightVNC running problems on Raspberry Pi. This took me to a previous post on this forum: http://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php...

Re: Problems Running TightVNCServer

Hi kusti8
I entered the command you suggested:

chmod +x script.sh

Unfortunately, the response I got was

chmod: cannot access 'script.sh' : No such file or directory

Any ideas?

Cheers

Re: Problems Running TightVNCServer

Hi T Unfortunately, the instructions at the link you sent me didn't work either. When trying to connect via the tight vnc viewer, I got the following message: Error in TightVNC Viewer: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it. Back to the drawing board! Thanks for y...

Re: Problems Running TightVNCServer

Thanks Kusti8
Is the command entered as part of the script in the nano editor or in the LX Terminal after the script has been saved to file?

Cheers

Re: Problems Running TightVNCServer

Thanks

New to this - sorry.

Do I enter the chmod +x script.sh as it stands in the LX terminal or does sudo need to go in front of it?

Also, do I enter before or after the sudo chmod 755 /etc/init.d/tightvncserver command?

Many thanks

Re: Changing resolution of output B+ and NOOBS v1.3.9

Yes, I am editing in NOOBS. The last link you sent states that the hdmi_mode=17 should be set with hdmi_group=2 I will give that a whirl and see if that works. Is there a way of editing rasp ism directly rather than using the NOOBS config editor?

Thanks, Andy

Re: Changing resolution of output B+ and NOOBS v1.3.9

Thanks Trev

Yes I have got a B+ so power is not an issue. I have just tried changing the mode to 17 but no luck, after the reboot it remained at 1 . I will try again, also changing the group also as you suggest and let you know what happens.

Cheers

Re: Changing resolution of output B+ and NOOBS v1.3.9

Hi Trev I am using an HDMI to VGA conversion cable recommended for use with the Pi. I am also using this to connect to the TV , which works OK so I don't think that is the problem. The config.txt reads: display's size minus # overscan. #framebuffer_width=1280 #framebuffer_height=720 # uncomment if h...

Re: Changing resolution of output B+ and NOOBS v1.3.9

Thanks for your post Trev and for your notes I see that the hdmi mode should = 17 for my 1024x768 VGA monitor. To change that do I simply change the number from what it is now "hdmi_mode=1" to "hdmi_mode=17" and click OK at the bottom of the Config editor. And reboot with the OS? Do I have to change...

Hi there, I have just got my first Pi, a B+, and I have it working well on a small wide screen TV. However, I ideally want to use an old PC monitor that I have as a display, but when I plug the Pi into the monitor, I get a black screen with the message "Over Range H: 67.5KHz V: 60.2KHz Max: 1024 x 7...
