Re: There is a problem with 2013-02-09-wheezy-raspbian.zip

This is very frustating. I have installed the raspian wheeze 2012-12-16 and it was working fine for a while, but now is having a problem that it looses or drop the IP address. I was told in another post to check for voltage between TP1 and TP2, but I don't have a voltmeter at this moment. The issue ...

Re: Project Temp sensor - Pi not installing new Modules

Re: fbset -depth 32 ioctl FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO

I have the debian wheeze from December 16 2012, and have donde sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade.

by typing:

fbset -depth 32 (press Enter)

a reboot would bring back the screen but the depth is low as I can see the background is not as colorful as it should.

Re: Ethernet chip gets raging hot

I found a command line to check the temperature of the rpi, I don't know how trustable it is.

it's:

pi@raspberrypi $ vcgencmd measure_temp

Mine says it's 51.9 C (Celsius) after running for almost 1 day. It's boxed so the external plastic box does not feel any hot at all.

My RPI doesn't do more than Depth 16. If I do: fbset -depth 24 (or 32) it goes blank and I have to reboot and access the RPI remotly with tightvncserver (already setup to start at boot time) and then change it back to depth 16.

Re: How do I create an image of the RPI already installed.

OK, I did a backup of the 32 GB sdcard, it took hours to do it and the final image is 32 GB in size even that only 4 or 5 GB are used so far. why is this way? I thought I was going to have a compressed image or something.
