Re: Is enabling huge pages on rpi 4B and 3B+ possible?

From https://wiki.debian.org/Hugepages#Enabling_HugeTlbPage I think the default Raspbian kernel doesn't have it enabled: root@rpi4b:/home/pi# zcat /proc/config.gz | grep HUGEPAGE CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE=y # CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE is not set root@rpi4b:/home/pi# So you'd have to b...

Re: Pi4 Cooling

Ok, but how well does the built-in WiFi and Bluetooth work in a metal enclosure? I haven't tested Bluetooth but Wifi seems to work fine from 1st floor to router on ground floor: With case: pi@raspberrypi:~/Downloads $ iperf -c 10.0.0.254 -p 4711 -t 60 -i 10 -----------------------------------------...

Re: Pi4 Cooling

73'C sounds pretty close to 80C when i understand throttling will start. What happens after a few hours of watching hi-def video or browsing add and clickbait covered social media pages if its hitting 73c internally after only 1 hour or so??

Re: Pi4 Cooling

I've achieved pretty good temperatures ( I think) by using a couple of copper heatsinks inside one of the acrylic style cases available from Amazon. I decided the tiny noisy fan had to go, and so 3d printed a new lid for the pi which will accommodate a 40mm noctua 5v model. Temps running the same s...

Re: debian/openelec on same card?

The cmdline.txt file on the boot partition of the SD card points to the partition to be used as root file system. You might be able to put the debian rootfs in one partition, the openelec in another partition and create a script under both systems to choose which OS to boot at the next boot. The scr...
