<t>The RasPi has 1 USB 2.0 host from the SoC (the chip), at that 480Mbps. That is going to be divided up among any USB device that is plugged in. The network port on the B model is also part of the USB (The LAN9512 is a USB2.0 hub with Ethernet). If you attach WiFi it will be to the USB also. The fa...

<t>An ATX PSU has 12v and 5v rails so you are covered no matter what they decide. Just be carefull as the 5v rail is the one that usually fails. You could easily power at least one RasPi per power connector. Two devices off a wall wart, through a "Y" connector would be OK I would not risk...

Now, Now. No looking recipes up on the Internet. If you are going to post recipes in this thread they have to be family recipes.

one of the moderaters will have to give them a whack with a Raspberry Pi if they cannot follow that rule. LMAO

<t>Quote from obarthelemy on September 20, 2011, 15:02 Also, don't forget MS are in no rush to push the price of desktop/laptop PCs lower and make their own OS and software appear so much more expensive in the process. They're doing it for tablets and phones because those are actually more...

The serial interface is separate solder pads on the board, not on the expansion headers. This is on the Alpha boards. I believe they intend to keep them separate on the production boards also. So you will have these to work with also.

<t>In actuality the ARM side of the SoC is the least of the problems for the any OS. It will always be the GPU and other proprietary parts of any manufacturers SoC. This is not just a Broadcom issue. There is an ARM in the works for "ARM". A more likely candidate for the RasPi would be Windows Mobil...

<t>The final decision is due here shortly. Maybe a week or so. That USB "Y" will work if you graft in the proper connector, if RasPi switches to 5volt only. If they switch to 5v that might even be the right connector on the cord. My personal opinion is that they already have the right pow...

The Quake 3 demo was running much better! You are getting the bugs worked out. Nice job at the maker faire.

<t>iOS was slow on the iPhone 3G. It was the same ARMv6 (1176JZ(F)-S same family at least) at 620Mhz underclocked to 412Mhz. So you would get a little more out of the ARM in the RasPi (700MHz). As to the GPU, I do not see broadcom opening up to Apple since Apple is producing their own SoC. In the 3G...

<t>HAHAHA-LOLOLOL no matter how much you kick this thread in the teeth it just keeps kicking back. Believe me, if this device is picked up by rip-offs and produced in the millions, as you say you hope it will Microsoft will look at it. They are probably horrified at the drop in the desktop and lapto...

<t>I ordered the nerd kits basic setup last night. I believe it will give me a good start. I probably will move on to more complex project kits later. After seeing it's instructions PDF that was found online, I easily understood it. It also helped that it is support directly by the Linux kernel. I h...

<t>Quote from thesynapseuk on September 15, 2011, 14:46 I thought that the whole idea of this kind of thing was taking what you're given and then making your solution to a problem? It seems there's a lot of people moaning about the little thing they would prefer and isn't there. I'm just lookin...

<t>I am surprised that this thread has not seen more activity. There have been many posts about building the RasPi with an edge connector. This is an alternative that will work if properly implemented. Ethernet is twisted pair and unshielded. USB is shielded but not twisted pair.<br/...

<t>The 350ma I believe included the mouse and keyboard also. USB keyboards are like 25ma and USB mice are around 100ma for optical. I don't know what the power consumption of roller mice is, but lower than optical. This also was a development board that has extra stuff on the board that will not be ...

<t>Considering that many of the micro controller "kit" developers are using or developing Linux capable products, the RasPi could end up as part of these "kits". Nerd Kits states you do not need drivers if you are using Linux as the USB programming cord is supported by the Linux kernel. It is a USB ...

<r>There is a thread where some preliminary test have been carried out. So far USB disk performance is about 20MB/s. Not bad but far below the theoretical max of 60MB/s. USB is processor intensive. So the ARM11probably is being pushed by the USB. Hopefully these figures will come up, with some tweak...

Has anyone found a charging circuit similar to that maxim for LiPo?

<t>So I go to the local Radio Shack to buy some parts. The guy behind the counter asks me what I am buying them for. I tell him there is new computer device coming out that I want to build a breakout connector for. He asks "is that the Raspberry Pi"? And I say yes. This is in a small town in norther...

Kind of funny: this thread just will not go away will it. Seems to me there are some people that just are determined to find a way to get windows 8 or CE onto the RasPi!

My brother found these "Nerd Kits". These seem like a good place for some of us to start at programming microcontrollers. The USB programming cord is supposedly support in the Linux Kernel.

<r>jacklang: That was a nice list of topics. Bundling the book and a device plus a SD card would let a novice feel that they have a decent chance of succeeding. I do not know how books are submitted to the "for Dummies" producers, but there are different authors for the books. T...
