I just want to let you know that the ZTE MF 821 works like a charm in Raspberry Pi. I'm running Raspbian. You just have to manually start the eth1 interface with sudo ifup eth1 (Or whatever ethernet interface the device gets connected to. You can find this by inspecting the ifconfig output) After th...

Thanks.

Getty is only used on the console. Usually from /etc/inittab. There's six virtual consoles (ctrl+alt+1 to ctrl+alt+6) in Raspbian. sshd launches a bash shell when you logon, it doesn't use getty or a pts device. Thanks DougieLawson, I was just afraid that, in case getty was used by SSH, I want be a...

I'm currently using SSH(via ethernet cable) to login to my Raspberry pi and access it using my Laptop.(using Putty on Windows 8) I have to use the serial port(in GPIOs tty0) for a certain application. For that the tutorial asks to disable Getty in /etc/inittab, by commenting the following line. T0:2...

Note that there are two separate, but related issues here. 1) How to connect to the Pi via SSH. 2) How to get the Pi to "see" the Internet (i.e., by going "through" your main machine). The first is pretty straightforward; the second less do. Get the first one sorted, then we can work on the later. ...

Hi yes, this should be doable. You can also get onto the Pi terminal using a serial port if you wanted to. I would suggest to just give the ethernet adapter on Ubuntu and the Raspberry Pi fixed IP addresses and then you should be good to go. See here for more info; http://www.howtoforge.com/linux-b...

Hi! I'm new to this forum and please pardon me if I'm doing anything not appropriate. Here is my situation. I got a new Pi for a present. However I have no HDMI monitor/ TV and I don't have a router. I connect to the Internet on my Ubuntu 12.10 using a Vodafone modem. Is there any way I can use my P...
