Is there a program that allows me to see linux partitions? Yes, a couple are mentioned here: http://www.howtogeek.com/112888/3-ways-to-access-your-linux-partitions-from-windows/ Apparently some can even give you write access, but I would be very reluctant to use that. As mentioned above the best wa...

Do you mean something like boblight?

A full rootfs can have strange effects, so I would suggest you move some files to another disk / partition. You can also clean out some stuff with 'apt-get autoclean', or more rigorously 'apt-get clean'. Maybe http://www.raspberrypi.org/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=15908 can give you some more hints....

Is sda2 your rootfs drive? If that's the case than that *could* be a problem.

I would still like to see the exact message that mount returns. What msg do you get if you log in with ssh and run 'sudo mount -a'?

Lazarus will start your program without showing a terminal window, so if it's a console program you'll have to make sure a terminal window is opened first. For this to happen you have to change the Run parameters (Lazarus menu Run / Run Parameters). I think the following should work (not tested on t...

DirkS

Have you tried running the program from the command line?

What message from mount do you get when you start the Pi (check with 'dmesg')?

BTW: have you checked that the drive is still 'sda6'?

The problem could be anything from power issues to driver configuration, so error messages are essential.

You would need something like this: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/370794816312? ... 1423.l2649

With these errors I would do a check and repair under Windows.

ps what do you mean by making it executable please? If you create a script with an editor (and often also when you download it) it's just a text file. To run it you have to change its attributes to make it runnable / executable using e.g. chmod +x scriptname BTW: I actually did not read your first ...

DirkS

Did you make the script executable?

Another possible problem could be access rights. Your script apparently needs root privileges so you have to edit crontab with

Code: Select all

sudo crontab -e

otherwise the script runs with the rights of the current user (pi)

Thanks a lot for this information. I just wasted 4-5 hours on this without getting anywhere..

Glad I could be of help! I can tell you I wasted far more than a couple of hours on this

I find the folders on the computer when browsing on the Pi but when I click on them I get a message saying "Invalid Argument". I had the same problem. Additionally, in the event log (under Administrative events) I found the message The server's configuration parameter "irpstacksize" is too small fo...

but my router is fine though no problems what so ever

How do you know that? Are you sure the IP or MAC address of the Pi is not blocked in the router?

As for USB boot. I found something called BerryBoot. ^u^

It still boots from an SD card. Only the OS partition is moved to a USB connected medium.
And there's nothing really special about it. I (and loads of other Pi users) do this on all my Pis without using Berryboot.

Ive set it up correctly as you will be abil to tell from the pictures I have added Looks to me that you have a link to your access point and that's it. There does not seem to be any traffic to / from the internet. If you have a look at your screenshots again you'll see that the second one says 'Int...

anyone? Well, that's not an edit but a complete rewrite of the post. The most likely effect is that hardly anybody will see it, because the 'unread' indicator is not reset when editing a post... In this case you should just have added a new post saying something like 'got it installed now but my do...

I'm fairly sure that these days raspbmc can be installed without a connection.
Wanted to check it, but the raspbmc / stmlabs website is down ATM.

Now I have a question. What in the world have I clicked on so it changed to a blackborder/margins, why couldn I click it back and had to write to the config.txt file.

Changed overscan in raspi-config?

Is that the keyboard layout for xbmc or for when you log in using SSH?
Not sure if you can change the layout used *inside* XBMC.

When you're logged in using SSH you can use

Code: Select all

sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales
sudo dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration

after this you need to reboot.

There are loads on ebay. I would say it's almost impossible to solder them on the board, though. There's hardly any space between the pins.

Is it write protected or is the card full?
What message(s) do you get?

There's a model A Pibow (also available at ModMyPi: https://www.modmypi.com/raspberry-pi-cases/pibow-cases/modela-model-a-raspberry-pi-case).

if I can switch it back to text-only somewhere in the settings? Never done it myself, but I assume you can run 'sudo raspi-config' in a terminal window. From there you can change the boot behaviour. Also, how about automatic security updates: do I need them, or is the current firewall enough for my...
