We would like to know the state of RPi to stop it and start it. Sometimes I need to stop it.DougieLawson wrote: You can't. Why do you need that info?

You ping it from another machine, if it responds, its running.......

But it may have been sleeping, wakes up to service the ping packet and then goes back to sleep....pluggy wrote:You ping it from another machine, if it responds, its running.......
A ping reply proves nothing....

Re: RPi - get the system state
Since when was the Pi capable of sleeping ?. It's pretty pointless if it did, it uses almost as much power shut down and still connected as running. We're not talking PC here.....
