I couldn't find anywhere to plug in power or the SD card. Could that be it?

well, it's got an hdmi input...

We demand that this camera module be made available free of charge immediately: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-18536170

Yes. Here: http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/Governmentc ... /DG_182935

No, there is no VGA out. You can use either a ~£2 passive HDMI to DVI-D cable for DVI-D monitors, or an active cable for HDMI to VGA.

You cannot use a passive DVI to VGA converter as there is no analog signal in the HDMI out.

There are several threads on this - have a search.

You're quite lucky that your WiFi dongle works when plugged directly into the pi in any configuration. Most people can't get that working as dongles tend to draw more than the 100mA allowed. There are real problems with the USB part of the Pi. The driver has been identified as accounting for about 2...

It's normally printed on the card. Look for a number in a circle.

Now resolved in the latest builds. See link above for details. I'm currently listening to music from a 16GB Sandisk class 10 microsd card in its adapter using the latest build OpenELEC on my pi. £10.10 - but it took a couple of weeks to come from Malaysia/South Korea.... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2...

Direct by USB to powered hub with mouse and keyboard.

If you have a good powered hub then you do not need a separate power adapter as you can power the Pi via the hub itself (at the cost of losing a port on the Hub to powering the Pi). As I understand it you can only do this if you have a poor quality powered hub that breaks the rules and exceeds the ...

I'm not having any good ideas about what the problem could be here (I can not reproduce locally, and it clearly is not a problem for many other people). Does anyone have any ideas? No, sorry. I don't remember doing anything odd. It's possible I powered down without a controlled shutdown, but I don'...

1) The LXDE task panel along the bottom no longer displays. I got the panels back by "rm -r lxpanel" from ~/.config/ followed by a reboot "sudo reboot" so that on restart it grabbed the default settings. http://wiki.lxde.org/en/LXPanel If the config files are missing, lxpanel loads system-wide conf...

If you are going to use raspi's to write cards, then they must be connected to external USB card writers I tried this at work today in my lunchtime. Writing from the 2012_06_10_spindle_wheezy_public_alpha.img image on the SD card to a card writer on USB hub took a very long time - and I had to do i...

Is there more than one? I used 2012_06_10_spindle_wheezy_public_alpha.img

Downloaded this today. On "startx" there was no raspberry wallpaper and no panels along the bottom after the first reboot. I'd not changed the pi account or config in any way. I got the panels back by "rm -r lxpanel" from ~/.config followed by a reboot "sudo reboot" so that on restart it grabbed the...

Spelling and punctuation is a challenge for the person who thinks swapping out kernels shouldn't be too difficult for the Linux newbie.

*sigh*

I think you got lucky with a batch that works properly then.

piglet

No you're not reading it wrong. This is the device I noted as being a "pile of poo". I have exactly this problem with it using its power supply on a PC. I ended up pulling out the +5V pin on the USB-A end of the cable to ensure that the 5V didn't fry anything it was plugged into. I also changed for ...

LaTeX? Bah! Surely you use plain TeX.

This is something which has been rattling round my brain for a while now, not thought through fully - but seems a bit of a problem. If you suddenly introduce this in a 4 form entry secondary school to all pupils years 1-5 (8 to 12 in new money), you're looking at having to prepare 5*4*30=600 SD card...
