I think that is actually a hardware issue, I used to get the exact same effect when plugging my laptop to my tv via hdmi. I think the cable might be defect.

Or you can try to use the stock Windows formatter. Plug the sdcard in the computer, open my computer and right click your sdcard, click format and choose fat32.

Just, one, question. How did you type that into the pi?

RAZERZ

Alternativly you can do;

Code: Select all

sudo poweroff

Or;

Code: Select all

sudo halt

And wait till it is only the red light left, then, unplugg, that is how I do it and I have never had a corruption (yet).

If the post above this did not work, open the config.txt

Code: Select all

sudo nano /boot/config.txt

And remove the "#" sign infront of the line "#hdmi_drive=2"

It should look like this;

"hdmi_drive=2"

Hope that helped and good luck!

Why can't you insert the card to your computer and copy the contains of the sdcard?

If you do; iwlist wlan0 scan What do you get? As for the bluetooth issue, if you can somehow get internet access (via ethernet) open the "menu" and click "preferences". Click "Add/remove software" and search for "pi-bluetooth". Tick the box and hit apply, now ...

Hmmm, have you tried re-installing it? Do it by running this command in the terminal; sudo apt-get remove tightvncserver Then; sudo apt-get install tightvncserver Once that is done, try to make a simple .sh file to run and check; sudo nano vnc.sh In there type "tightvncserver" on the first...

Platform: Pi 2 Kernel release: 4.4.13-v7+ For learning purposes, I built my own GPIO driver. When inserting the module, I'm getting a Permission denied error as follows. root@rpi:~# insmod mygpio.ko insmod: ERROR: could not insert module mygpio.ko: Permission denied If you ever get the "permis...

Start your Pi normally. Open a terminal window and type; sudo raspi-config Is the raspi-config utility installed and usable with Arch Linux? (I'm genuinely asking: it may be, but I was under the impression it was a tool for configuring a Raspbian system.) +1 in Arch you have to manually size partit...

did you format your sdcard properly? Insert it into your windows pc and click "my computer", you should see your sdcard there. Right click it and click format and choose "FAT32". Then when that is done you just open "win32diskimager" and write to the sdcard. Formatting...

Yep, that is strange. If you boot up to the older version (the one that works) and open terminal and type; sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade Once that is done type; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade Please report the results, this is something strange... Hope that helped and good luck! :D

Since you know about the config.txt, this should go smoothly (hopefully). Open a terminal window and type; sudo nano /boot/config.txt Then, using your arrows on the keyboard, find; #config_hdmi_boost=4 Uncomment it so it looks like this; config_hdmi_boost=4 This will increase the signal and you can ...

Start your Pi normally. Open a terminal window and type; sudo raspi-config The first option should be "Expand Filesystem". Hit enter and it should be done after a few seconds-minutes depending on your sdcard size. Now, (don't exit out of the terminal window) hit the right arrow on your key...

From what I know, the keyboard might not be getting enough power, if you have a USB hub you can use that. I don't think otherwise that it will work.

For reference, I will show you how chmod works; Three groups, "user", "group" and "root", in that order. That should be "user", "group", and "others". Oh, well thanks for the correction. I will edit the post, but are you sure? Did a quick ...

I think you could have uncommented framebuffer and put the screen resolutions there. I used to do it before i got my hdmi to vga.

Is there a way to eliminate the logo from the output window for Terminal? When you open the LXTerminal application, all you'll get is a window with the default prompt, ready to read input on a black background. There's no RPi logo. And nothing in the LXTerminal preferences give any indication that ...

Alternativly you can use the windows formatter. When you plug your sdcard in open "my computer" and right click on the sdcard and click format.

Is the apple keyboard wireless?
Have you tried with other keyboards?
What about other usb devices such as mouse and thumb drive, do they work properly?
