@HawaiianPi I experienced a similar issue when using the lite version. @Kscfixitforme Your keyboard is not detected/set properly and I know that you cannot set it properly because you cannot login. I was experiencing absolutely bizarre issues and I only found out that this was happening to me when I...

My Pi4 8GB completed the HPL benchmark at 2100MHz and passed!
It failed at 2150MHz (system froze).

No fan of course, just a largish stick-on passive heat sink.

Impressive!

What over voltage did you use? Also, are you overclocking the gpu aswell?

the bootloader configuration setting POWER_OFF_ON_HALT=1 turns off the USB ports on shutdown. Is this really necessary? I doubt the Raspberry Pi foundation would officially allow booting from USB and then not announce to users that this change is necessary for safe operation. I have been wrong befo...

My system is completely stable, even under load. In my opinion every MHz can you squeeze out of your chip is important. I run a local Minecraft server on it sometimes, too, and single-threaded performance is important! @dominic03 I think you can claim that your system is stable under *normal* load....

What are you trying to accomplish with the VPN? I mean, will your RPI be involved in heavy tasks when acting as your VPN server? I don't see why 2GB should not be enough is all you need is access to your home network.

Raspberry Pi family. :D Welcome! I too heard about the RPI many years ago and just recently got the 8GB version. It's truly an amazing thing. It serves as my fileserver, torrent-downloader, automated backups, and more. It's a great tool for experimentation and generally learning about networking. A...

I love this thing. I'm not really a tablet person and have never been interested in one but I'm interested in this.

I installed pi hole on my raspeberry p4: the problem is that I can't configure it to block the ads of a page. I thought of viewing the html of the page and blocking those links on the raspberry. This didn't work out. do you know how to help me? Even with youtube I can not eliminate in any way the a...

I did put this to the test and indeed, there are no benefits for headless users. I used xhpl to benchmark.

bassamanator

Just used this today.

It's a keeper!

Is the static ip that you've assigned able to be assigned by the router?

My rpi is at 192.168.1.100. My router cannot assign this ip to another device because it's out of the range of allowable assignments.

Perhaps look into that.

bassamanator

I thought I read somewhere there might be benefits to increasing gpu_freq even for headless raspberry pi setups. Is this true?

bassamanator

What have you guys chosen, did you disable the current limiter to maximize your overclock? I didn't realize there was such a thing. I wrote a small bash script that xhpl as many times as you specify and logs all the output. Anyway, I've been running xhpl benchmarks back to make, currently doing 8 b...

What does the read button do?

What's the optimal setting to use for the blocksize?

So I installed samba on my raspberry. I'm able to access the share just fine from my main PC. I can read/write when copying to/from. The issue is that some programs are unable to write to the samba share. I can open files in Kate and notepadqq (text editors) and edit/save without issues. LibreOffice...

Oh yeah, I guess that makes sense.

Anyway to lengthen this benchmark/stress test by altering the the HPL.dat file?

@KKJdrunkenmonkey did you find a way to properly test the overclock on your RPI?

New results after change arm freq to 1900. 2000 crashed my rpi.

Hi All, got my Pi 4 8GB recently and decided to do HPL benchmark on it. Result: almost 9 GFlops !!! tutorial and results are here: https://www.hydromag.eu/~aa3025/rpi/ . Alex P. Small correction to your guide because I just followed it again after a fresh rpiOS image. Section compile OpenBLAS e.g. ...

I am using ATLAS since the concept of letting it auto-tune (the AT part of ATLAS) seemed smart. I found the instructions here: https://computenodes.net/2018/06/28/building-hpl-an-atlas-for-the-raspberry-pi/ I then used this calculator to generate an HPL.dat for me: https://www.advancedclustering.co...

Have you tried, maybe:
Code: Select all
sudo apt update
sudo apt install dolphin

No thanks. It's a 138mb download.

Decided to instal Thunar. It's far better than the default included in raspberry pi os and it's only 13mb.

In my testing I have found you can't really run dual HDD reliably from a Raspberry Pi's USB ports alone. It might be possible to get the system to boot and mount both drives (I've done it), but anything that requires heavy I/O to both drives will eventually (if not immediately) fail. You can do dua...

bassamanator

Yes, 100% sure. They're in an enclosure and include a SATA to USB adaptor, but the drives are definitely 2.5" and only usb powered. For example, the 4TB model and a 500GB I removed from its housing. Great. Thanks for the picture. I still keep hearing from people that connecting HDDs to the rpi...

@hayati

First, I think the latest update you mentioned is beta I believe so you're likely to experience problems.

Second, I'm not sure what you're saying exactly. Are you trying to boot from a micro sd card that's inside an SD card to USB adapter?

bassamanator

I don't often use the raspberry pi OS 32bit file manager but when I do, I hate it.

Anyway to install a different file manager, preferably dolphin?

Thanks!

I've had no troubles with a range of portable 2.5 inch drives manufactured by Seagate and WD from 500Gb, 1TB, 2Tzb and even 4TB on any Pi. They're powered by their USB cable only and I use a few different power sources including batteries and the official power supply. Sorry, are you sure those are...
