When I get round to it I have a patch to fix this problem to send to the wayland group. Comment out the test file that fails to compile.

Before following this recommendation please review this http://www.raspberrypi.org/phpBB3/viewt ... =28&t=9819 discussion. Sorry Dave, it is not really suitable due to it's power consumption from the 5volt line on the HDMI port. Unless this model has significantly reduced consumption?

I'm new to this, so please excuse my limited knowledge. Does this adapter seem fit to avoid the problem? http://dx.com/p/hdmi-male-to-vga-female-adapter-w-audio-white-red-229078 Yes, this looks like it should work assuming that the device requires the 5 volt power supply to be connected for the dev...

Could I suggest that you use distcc with the cross-compilers available on the rpi github repository?
I works a treat for me and considerably reduces the build times.

I set up a 256Mb Pi running Raspbian for my son and he installed quasselcore on it. It is connected by Ethernet to the home gateway/router. Apart from the occasional reboots to install upgrades it has been running solidly for months now. He estimates the "lag" to be of the order of milliseconds. So ...

I have taken to using luakit http://mason-larobina.github.io/luakit/, but then I have been known to use vi as well.

I got it built and working using the supplied instructions. libdrm-dev is not required. The only adjustment from the instructions needed was to move the XDG_RUNTIME_DIR to /tmp/wayland. This is my complete script export WLD="$HOME/local" export PATH="$WLD/bin:$PATH" export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$WLD/lib:...

What is the type of n3? Is it a uint?
Not that it should cause a problem.
Just clutching at straws really.

Also 693880 is
10101001011001111000

Also 86735 is
10101001011001111

693880 = 86735 * 8.

Which is interesting.

Anybody got any ideas? I don't want to poke around with this one because these are Li-Ion batteries. It's a complete guess but I would use 1 - P- 2 - P- for the negative 8 - P+ 9 - P+ for the positive. Confirm with a test meter first. Oh, and you must fit fuses unless the battery has them built in....

Did you expect to be able to configure the overclock options during the installation process? Yes. Have you tried to set overclock options in the config.txt file? Of course, and it works, but the Foundations' official Debian image modulates the clock frequency depending on CPU use to run things coo...

I tried this. Frankly, for me, the level of testing is disappointing. No 'known bugs' on the release note. Bugs I found in the first ten minutes: The following were not saved even though reconfigured during the installation process: 1. Host name (edit /etc/hostname). 2. Keyboard layout. 3. Time zone...

The Apple charger is OK, on 2 provisos, 1, its a real one and not a fake, and 2 you get a decent micro USB lead to work with it. The cheapest you can find isn't likely to work, because the voltage drops too much between the PSU and the Pi. Some Apple chargers are not suitable according to the repor...

Eh? The Pi needs a 5 +- 0.25 volt supply. Would you care to cite a reference where someone is running their Pi on 20v without a voltage regulator of some sort?

To address the original problem, I would recommend purchasing a £3-4 3.3v Serial to USB adapter with the Raspberry Pi, connecting it to the appropriate GPIO pins and configuring with putty or similar. No need for composite video, USB hubs or any other stuff like that - in fact that is how I did it b...

Do the very latest USB fixes (gsh's stuff and M33Ps) help with the adapter on the A? If not, I think gsh would be interested in more information. My raspberry pi 'A' with just an Edimax (Realtek chipset) wi-fi dongle has been up continuously now since the update a week ago. Previously it would not ...

You listed several, so if I had to pick one as a starting point which would you suggest, since you have experiance with several? (Note I'm running Win7 64bit OS) Yes, I am running 64bit versions of Windows as well. IMHO, I would go for Juce, it is very well supported and easy to use. The downside i...

To develop for on the Pi from Windows, I use BVRDE at http://bvrde.sourceforge.net/ . This connects to the Pi using SSH, SFTP, etc but allows editing, debugging, etc like a Windows IDE. I also sometimes use MobaXTerm http://mobaxterm.mobatek.net/ . GUI Toolkits that work on Windows and the Pi (that ...

Of course it is entirely possible that it was the Amazon PSU that had an internal short which caused the catastrophic failure of the TV.

pwinwood

No. The current rating of the Power supply is irrelevant. What is important is that the power supply provides a clean and well regulated 5 volts. The power supply current rating should be taken as the upper limit of current that can be drawn by the connected equipment. If you exceed the current rati...

I have been experimenting with my R-Pi Model A and an EDIMAX Wi-Fi adaptor. The Wi-Fi adaptor has been working well with my old Power MAC G4 (QuickSilver) for a while. No lock ups or disconnects. I am connecting to it with SSH. When I transfer a large file to the PI (using SFTP) I find the Pi locks ...

I think there is another problem here not directly related to the circuit. A resistor in the ground connection will not solve anything. Does the LCD module have pull ups to 5v or even 12v? The GPIO pins are only suitable for feeding 3.3v devices. To fix this buffers will be required. Is the PI's pow...

pwinwood

Could you kindly post pictures/schematics of how you went about doing this ? Not really it was a while ago and the adaptor is now sealed up and in situ. I can however tell you how I did it. I identified the +5v and GND pads as per my photo earlier in the thread and connected them to my bench power ...

Personally I would take a look at BVRDE which runs on Windows and allows editing, compiling and debugging on the pi over SSH etc http://bvrde.sourceforge.net/.
It provides a similar experience to Visual Studio and is free.

Now, I've got it working almost perfectly but I do not know how to get back to console afterwards. It seems like the sdl framebuffer freezes when I try to finish the program. Something like #include ... #include <SDL.h> static void windowClose(AG_Event *event) { AG_Window *win((AG_Window*)AG_PTR(1)...
