Raspberry Pi Forums

I was getting the same issues as you. Following a fresh install of Wheezy... I needed to login as root (user = root, password = root) I then ran: sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade Then got the rpi update by : wget http://goo.gl/1BOfJ -O /usr/bin/rpi-update && chmod +x /usr/bin/rpi-update rpi...

I wish I could give you specifics which would be help, but alas memory isn't what it should be :? I got various error messages basically saying I didn't have permission to rup rpi-update. I tried sudo rpi-update...fail I tried logging on as root, or rather switching to root by typing sudu su - ....f...

...even if it wasn't the keyboard should still work.
So, just to confirm the pi boots to the stage where is asks for the username, but no ethernet LED's are lit and the keyboard does not work?

Why not try the new wheezy distro :
http://www.raspberrypi.org/phpBB3/viewt ... =50&t=8071

(you shouldn't need to enable the audio as you have above).

Texy

I,m sure you can, from the command line it'll be something like
sudo apt-get install python3.1

Actually, there is a help guide in this thread :

Let us know how you get on.

I`m no Linux expert and take meds for severe pain from a failed spine op, the side effects of which leave my brain with no short term memory. Look at a piece of paper with writing on and try to write something down on another about what I read, I cannot because their is a brick wall in my head. Oth...

Thanks - apologies for spoon feeding

Hi,
are there any instructions for cross compiling in Windows - the elinux page above has TODO against it

PS that help guide also suggests that it can take around 6 hours to compile on a Pi - is this still the case?

Where exactly do I download the Jun 13 2012 11:52:26 Copyright (c) 2012 Broadcom version 319513 (release) kernel.img file from? I tried to run rpi-update last night and it just was'nt happening. Not sure if it was because of a problem 'there' end, or 'my' end :( As I stated in another thread, what I...

They must of given some code examples?
If not ask them, they are nice guys.
I also have there board, haven't had time to play with it yet.

...like I said a few posts back, the 'latest' script does not work - not thats its the fault or MrEngman ;) You need his first version, but with the rpi-update stage taking out. Texy Which script is that? The one mentioned in this post : http://www.raspberrypi.org/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=6256&s...

Hmm. Can't see a script, just a big list of devices?

Texy

Yes but you may need to adjust how much light triggers a high or low.
Texy

I,ve never tried the raspbmc images, but can you try the latest Debian image, not from the downloads page, but highlighted in this thread :
http://www.raspberrypi.org/phpBB3/viewt ... =63&t=5057

It has recent firmware that handles high speed SD cards much better.

Texy

Thats a fast SD card. have you tried the latest kernel image? It has fixes for faster cards. Not sure if it applies to Fedora, but I,m sure an expert will
pip in

Texy

I would expect the opposite, especially with no powered hub. Are you sure you cannot ping before you enter startx ? what does ifconfig show?

Texy

.....which ends up meaning, will I read a 1 or a 0 when the switch is not pressed.
Texy

Yes - good call

Change the 10k resistor to a 100ohm resistor, and it definiately needs to be fitted.
The 'pot' is a variable resistor, or potentiometer - its resistance can be altered between 0ohms and its maximum, 10,000 ohms in this case.

Texy

Try this for the photo tranny, although you'll proably need to omit the pull-down, ie connect the emitter to 0volts (GND) :

Attached is correct for the switch.

Texy

I've accepted lb's pull request, and rebuilt the firmware in github, and updated Hexxeh's repo. An rpi-update should now give you improved sdcard speed. init_emmc_clock now defaults to 50Mhz, so config.txt entry is not required. Please update and report back on success or failures. How does this fi...

I would suggwst either
a) PSU and/or hub problem, or
b) genuine hardware fault of the pi

What PSU and/or hub rating do you have?

Texy

...like I said a few posts back, the 'latest' script does not work - not thats its the fault or MrEngman

You need his first version, but with the rpi-update stage taking out.

Texy

Many thanks for this - working a treat! Its a pity the yt app isn't being maintained any more - for example, how do you select clips 10 to 12? Also, is it possible to log in to you tube so that you can select your channels, etc ? Cheers, Texy Well after playing a bit more I sussed out how to get cl...

No, the left side of the switch doesnt need to be connected to 0v, it can be left floating.
My post above shows how to connect to phototransistor - the Vout connects to the gpio i/p.
