I still find it hilarious that a device as clever as this, has no way of powering 'ON' without modification? Seriously? Irritates the hell out of me. Life lesson. If something "Irritates the hell out of me" get rid or it and move on. Find a solution that meets your requirements. Don't whinge. Yawn.
I suspect the issue is the clearances needed to make sure that even with a slightly oversized screwhead/spacer body and a screw/spacer not perfectly aligned on the hole that it can't accidentally short anything out. Also, changing the hole size would need to go back to the PCB designer. PCB softwar...
We are very lucky as there many audio options for the Raspberry Pi. I doubt any will do exactly what you want out of the box, but with some effort you should be able to get a solution. Another option to add to your list, piCorePlayer. https://www.picoreplayer.org/index.html We have recently added "a...
I believe in your case you may be able to just reference your soundcard by name, ALSA, Audio, Device, instead of the number. These very generic names caused me confusion for a long time, especially the RPi using ALSA. The article you quoted has multiple USB devices of the same type causing the card ...
hi Oli4, I use WinSCP on my PC as "the view" for my RPi development. Left hand pane are the files on my PC git directory, and the right pane are the files on my RPi. WinSCP allows you to sync in either direction. Double-click on a file in the RPi pane and Notepad++ opens the file. Do your edits and ...
What OS is on your laptop? SD cards usually come "Ready to go". Your SD card may indeed be faulty but I think the problem is "I've followed every set of directions I have found so far". :lol: Linux Mint 17.3 According to what I'm reading it's always emphasized that you need to format the SD card fi...
The terms passphrase and password are used interchangeably. Confusing to me. I, maybe incorrectly, think of a password as the one you type where passphrase is generated by wpa_passphrase. :lol: tc@pCPJustBoom:~$ wpa_passphrase usage: wpa_passphrase <ssid> [passphrase] If passphrase is left out, it w...
You could use wpa_passphrase to generate a passphrase from your SSID and password. This should get around special characters and is a little more secure as your wifi password is not stored anywhere. wpa_supplicant.conf will then have a line like this: psk=6554d2e9bbf18ce37dd95fffc7a6d25d9ef54e317dbd...
Hi TheRealDusk, By "your way" I was inferring the way you understand the best. Your real problem is getting your wifi dongles to work properly in the first place. My tip: I would use "-Dnl80211,wext" instead of "-D wext" is a good one I believe. Most wifi adaptors are moving from "wext" to "nl80211"...
hi TheRealDusk, You can see by the responses there are lots of ways of doing this. If you want to do it "your" way you need use $A to use contents of A. Also, if the "then" is on the same line it needs a ; before it. So if grep "ESSID" A then should be if echo $A | grep "ESSID"; then 1. Do you have ...
So in response to the locking of this thread https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=4949&p=1439358#p1439358 to which I had replied as it seems to be the opinion of the moderators that win 32 disk imager is now obsolete and the recommendation to use etcher which will only flash SD c...
Thanks Orchard Audio, I added "Orchard Audio ApplePi DAC" and "Orchard Audio PecanPi DAC" to the piCorePlayer "Audio output device" dropdown list/configuration. It should be available in the next version of piCorePlayer. Obviously untested, but I can't see there is much of a chance of a problem occu...
Hmm, a full year of work and this contractor hasn't delivered anything yet? Honestly, this is something your Foundation should look into. :-/ As time goes by, web pages become more and more heavier with all that javascript. This is a project that can't wait at this point, I'm afraid. Sounds like yo...
