Could anyone recommend a torrenting app that isn't a resource hog for the Pi? I still can's work out how torrents work and I thought this might help me understand...
EDIT: Wait what 22222nd post wow

Maybe the rc.xml file is missing on new installations. It has been the settings file for openbox with default LXDE before the Foundation added its modifications. I prefer a settings file which does not depend on the settings used by the modifications. obconf has also been removed from the latest Ra...

Is there a way to play a short start-up sound in Raspbian, like in Windows? Maybe via rc.local? My attempts at making a Python script to play a sound via pygame didn't work, so I'm asking here for advice.
Thanks.

You're wrong about Epiphany, that's a terrible browser and a buggy piece of brown smelly stuff. That's just my opinion. It works for me, although I use Midori slightly more than Epiphany. My experience is that using those involves them crashing which I don't find acceptable. I also want to run nosc...

Here, the very first (and second if you want PHP) steps will get you a working Lighttpd server. https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=36&t=151358 Yes, I did make that guide, but that's not why I'm linking to it. It's because a. I can't write all that again and b. Lighttpd is more lightw...

You're wrong about Epiphany, that's a terrible browser and a buggy piece of brown smelly stuff. Also where's Kweb and Chromium 50? That's just my opinion. It works for me, although I use Midori slightly more than Epiphany. Chromium is not an option because of Pi B+. I still don't quite understand w...

I have my new raspberry 2! The default browser is "Web". Very easy and light but crash continuously! Which alternative browser you can suggest me? and how to install it? Thanks!

Wow, that was quite the ordeal with your laptop. Hope things are working well now. What do you use for imaging your system? Sounds like you need something new anyway (TWO restore failures!). I've been using Clonezilla for years and it's worked well for me. My laptop (Yoga 2 Pro convertible ultraboo...

Hey there a way to to play online games on Raspberry pi 3? Online games as in 1. Online (Multiplayer) games that are a program on the Pi, or as in 2. games that you go to a website to play? If it's 1, then the post above this one is correct. If it's 2, anything that uses Adobe Flash will not work ,...

Is there a way to make both wifi and ethernet cable both working? let's say I have 2 applications. I like to have application 1 to use eth0 or ethernet connection. and application 2 to use wlan0 or wifi. There is a little daemon demon which runs in the background called ifplugd , its designed to gi...

Thank you for teaching me that. The knowledge of the apt-get will be passed on from generation to generation...

Hi I have copied my lazarus desktop file and edited it to run my lazarus produced program. It works fine except it displays the diamond icon (I don't know its proper name), even though I have pointed it to Buccaneer.ico in my program's directory. What are the specs of this file, eg its size in pixe...

hello world :-)

This question is asked just out of curiosity, and does not require a fix, since I'm going to reinstall Raspbian very soon anyway.

So, just this morning, this showed up out of the blue:

Eh?
It was working fine yesterday...

...Hopefully that won't delete NOOBS as well, since right now my laptop is out of service (again!) which means the only way I can reinstall is via NOOBS... Deffinitely don't run the command I posted then. :shock: What's wrong with your laptop? TL;DR: Microsoft and their system recovery tools broke ...

Does anyone have any hints as to why certain windows and title bars would not render at 1680x1050 and turn our all black? Attached is an example of this. Increasing the video split from 64MB to 128MB on my Pi 3 has no effect. The screen is running a resolution of 1680x1050. This issues only seems t...

Like the title says. Preferably one with reminders for a set time, on a set day. Ideally on par feature wise with the calendar that comes pre-installed with Android (maybe only Samsung) phones. Thanks. (yawn) just woke up and had post this before I forgot *again*. EDIT: not app calendar, calendar ap...

NAT your SSH port to your PI, passwd your root to blank password. Post your public IP to this forum and wait 24h, then post your results here :) but please nothing that can harm other computers on the same network. Thanks. Sorry.

I bought the Raspberry Pi 3b Media Center Edition from Jet.com Cost me $55.oo So far, It isn't doing what I need it to do, which is play my video and audio files. Why, what's wrong? Also, if it just came with some kind of boot-to-Kodi system, that sounds like a bit of a rip-off (unless it also came...
