Yep, that's it. eth0 has a lower metric. Thanks!

I just got my RPi3, about two hours ago, so of course I'm checking it out. I set static IP's for both wired and wireless using my typical number scheme. So this Pi got 192.168.0.10 for wired (even number), and 192.168.0.11 for wireless (wired # plus 1). Wireless worked fine so I plugged in the ether...

Put it in your desktop autostart file. That will run it when the desktop starts.

Code: Select all

nano ~/.config/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart

Add a line at the bottom

Code: Select all

@/path/to/your/script.sh

JimmyN

Look in your "/etc/network/interfaces" file. If it contains these lines at the top then you're using dhcpcd. # Please note that this file is written to be used with dhcpcd # For static IP, consult /etc/dhcpcd.conf and 'man dhcpcd.conf' Change any "static" or "dhcp" settings back to the default (manu...

It works with Jessie. When they switched to using systemd raspi-config was updated to check for it. I'm running uname -a Linux rpi2 4.1.18+ #846 Thu Feb 25 14:11:56 GMT 2016 armv6l GNU/Linux When I look in raspi-config it's using systemd if [ $SYSTEMD -eq 1 ]; then systemctl set-default graphical.ta...

I use a 20x4 LCD character display on a headless RPi. It shows IP address, CPU temp, CPU load, RAM Usage, and Disk Usage along with some other info. It updates every 5 seconds and constantly rotates though the different info lines. And I have another headless setup that uses a 24bar LED graph. The f...

Try using this. You have to unmount /boot, run the repair, then mount /boot again sudo umount /boot sudo fsck.vfat -ar /dev/mmcblk0p1 fsck.fat 3.0.27 (2014-11-12) 0x25: Dirty bit is set. Fs was not properly unmounted and some data may be corrupt. 1) Remove dirty bit 2) No action ? 1 Perform changes ...

It can't connect to the internet to update the package list.
What do you get with this command

Code: Select all

ping -c 4 google.com

If that times out and you get no response try

Code: Select all

ping -c 4 8.8.8.8

You just have to set it to boot to desktop and auto login, using raspi-config, the same place where you set the Locale, time zone, etc. From the command line run "raspi-config". sudo raspi-config Choose Option 3, "Boot Options" Choose Option B4, "Desktop Autologin" When you reboot the desktop will s...

I turned it off using "/etc/sysctl.conf", by adding the line "net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 1" That resulted in no ipv6 address: eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr b8:27:eb:4f:95:d6 inet addr:192.168.0.6 Bcast:192.168.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packe...

I'm surprised adding it to rc.local works for you, it never worked for me. I found it needs to be changed after the boot completes, or use "/etc/init.d/raspi-config". Apparently cpufreq hasn't taken control yet and it's still set on "powersave" until after it checks for the shift key being held down...

"ondemand" is the default, there would be no need to set it.

JimmyN

If you can mount it from the command line then you can mount it with fstab. Try using this in fstab: //ip/downloads /mnt/torrents cifs username=user,password=password,uid=1000,gid=1000,x-systemd.automount 0 0 I mount a number of Windows folders on the RPI's. That way the files are actually on the PC...

JimmyN

I don't think "conservative" will do what you want. It works just like "ondemand" except that "conservative" increases the speed in steps as the load increases (you can specify the step values), whereas "ondemand" just switches between min/max. It's useful for battery powered systems to provide some...

JimmyN

Right click in the system tray.
Select "Add/Remove Panel Items"
Click on the "ADD" button (top right)
Select "WiFI Networks (dhcpcdui)" from the list and "Add" it.

JimmyN

Can you mount it manually using this:

Code: Select all

sudo mount -t cifs //ip/downloads /mnt/torrents -o username=user,password=password,uid=1000,gid=1000

JimmyN

There isn't any default account, when you log in that's your default. I think what you probably need to do is add the new user to the same groups as pi, so that everything works. Get a list of the groups that pi belongs to: groups pi Then add the new user to the same groups. I always create a new us...

Try //ip/downloads /mnt/torrents username=user,password=password,uid=1000,gid=1000,iocharset=utf8 0 0 "ntml" is the old method of password encryption between server and client, everything has moved to "ntlmssp" as the default.

That's coming from the "/etc/systemd/system/autologin@.service" file.

Scroll down to the "[Service]" section in the file and you'll have "--autologin pi" in the "ExecStart=" line. That is starting the three processes you're seeing.

JimmyN

During the day when it's charging the battery the solar panel will also need to power the Pi. So the solar panel has to have enough output to do both at the same time. How many watts is the solar panel?

JimmyN

Thanks, I knew somebody would come along that knew what to do about the changing inputs. I guess I should edit the instructions to include editing the .rules file, and specifying the alternate input is no longer needed if using "/dev/twofingtouch".

Now, to play MPEGs should the license be on the server, the Kodi clients or both? The license is for the RPi itself. You provide the RPi's internal 16 digit serial number, and that is used to generate the license key. It will only work on that specific RPi. The key enables hardware decoding of MPEG...

There's also "rpi-wiggle" which lets you set the amount of "wiggle" room.

If you want to compare different boards to look for variance you need to use exactly the same stress test on each, or it's not a true comparison. Just because the CPU is at 100% doesn't necessarily mean it's at peak power, 100% clock doesn't necessarily mean 100% power. As an example the PC I'm typi...

Credit goes to @ gadgetoid for finding the method, testing it, and confirming that it works in this thread. https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=108&t=121602&start=25 I'm just adding some polish.
