Remote use

Sun Dec 01, 2013 2:42 pm

I was just wondering if there is a web frontend or some other way that could be used to connect to wolfram that is running on pi. I don't have the device here and using VNC is *really* laggy due to relatively low upload bandwidth. it seems "Remote Development Kit" is no use too as it does absolutely nothing when opened in cdf player.

I find it easy to remote access Raspberry Pi using Microsoft Remote Desktop --https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/microso ... d715768417.
The upload speed, ( thanks BT Infinity ), is about 15Mbps , so remote looks almost as good as the access from internal network.

I use X11 forwarding over ssh, but it's a fast connection. You should try it to see how it works for you.

Remote Desktop works OK for me, too. It requires installation of the xrdp package (sudo apt-get install xrdp) or at least that's one way of enabling it.

Algorithm, have tried using that "sudo apt-get install xrdp" with latest version of Raspbian but just keep getting error messages.
Seems to be looking for a different path.
Any suggestions would be most helpful or is it possible to install the individual files I would require to run xrdp separatel.

Did you first do "sudo apt-get update" to sync the local package info? Before install/upgrade/dist-upgrade, always first update. See "man apt-get". Maybe now try this, in order:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get -y upgrade
sudo apt-get -f install xrdp

Thanx I tried that but it didn't work.
Seems the path in err http://mirror director.raspbain.org wheezy Release.gpg was having a temporary failure resolving 'mirror director.raspbain.org'
Any other ideas would be most welcome

Assuming "raspbain" is your typo and not the repo list maintainer's, I don't know. Possibly also beyond the scope of this Mathematica sub-forum.
