Ok, I tested the 3v3 pin and it's dead. Now, what can be the most probable cause? Static current? Conductive surface? I really don't know...

Probably the 5V has shorted to 3.3V. Just avoid this, because it's deadly for the Pi.

Seems rather convoluted (and probably needing a larger memory Pi4). I was hoping for something more along the lines of special command lines in Geany. Basic steps for a simple 64-bit compilation: Prepare the Ubuntu chroot environment: mkdir ubuntu cd ubuntu wget http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-bas...

Sorry I'm not a Linux expert. Are you saying run 64 bit Ubuntu from inside Raspian, then run the 64 bit GCC there, then exit Ubuntu and run the 64 bit code from the special Run command on the menu ? Seems rather convoluted (and probably needing a larger memory Pi4). I was hoping for something more ...

Wilfried - Did you come up with a solution to this ? It seems odd to me to have to have an x64 machine to compile anything to run on a Pi. But there is a solution, just chrooting into an arm64 root ( for example, unpack the Ubuntu base tar.gz ). Not as comfortable as cross-compile, but easy enough.

Kendek

Not on ext4 (or xfs) it isn't. You're on Raspbian; you're probably hobbled by ext4. It still doesn't work and crashes immediately when the system tries to use SWAP. > dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/swapfile bs=1M count=4096 > sync > echo "cryptswap /mnt/swapfile /dev/urandom swap,cipher=aes-xts-plain64,si...

Hmm. News to me. What *isn't* is that fallocate isn't a valid way of doing it: see the mkswap manpage. dd instead.

I think the fallocate is good enough on an empty filesystem. But yeah, maybe I'll try with dd too.

Do you not need to mkswap any more?

Apparently not.

Kendek

Would you mind to try swap file? I've tried with the following commands: mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt fallocate -l $((4*1024*1024*1024)) /mnt/swapfile echo "cryptswap /mnt/swapfile /dev/urandom swap,cipher=aes-xts-plain64,size=256" >/etc/crypttab cryptdisks_start cryptswap swapon /dev/mapper/cryptswap stre...

Thanks. Have you used partition? Or swap file?

Partition on an external HDD, connected through USB 3.0.

Kendek

I tried it on RPi4 (64-bit Ubuntu with kernel 5.3.6), and the encrypted SWAP works perfectly. So there is no reboots when the SWAP is being used, and it is very stable.

Kendek

Try to set the

Code: Select all

hdmi_preferred=1

in /boot/config.txt to shift audio (and CEC) to HDMI1.

@HawaiianPi: I think I've found a possible explanation why yours works and mine doesn't. It also depends on the firmware, but the minimum is ASM1351. If you want to be sure, use a StarTech product. I have some cable-style adapters, the USB312SAT3CB is working properly (with the official firmware up...

You can update the EEPROM to the current stable version with the following commands: wget -O /boot/partition/recovery.bin https://github.com/raspberrypi/rpi-eeprom/raw/master/firmware/recovery.bin wget -O /boot/partition/pieeprom.upd https://github.com/raspberrypi/rpi-eeprom/raw/master/firmware/crit...

Is this right? Color settings are to do with bit depth, not refresh rates.
"deep color" is merely a fancy name for 10bit color resolution.

Yes, without these the HDMI port is technically limited to 1.4, so no 4K/UHD 60Hz with Full RGB.

Kendek

If your adapter supports the UNMAP/TRIM, you need the following udev rule to activate: /etc/udev/rules.d/01-unmap.rules ACTION=="add|change", ATTRS{idVendor}=="<VID>", ATTRS{idProduct}=="<PID>", SUBSYSTEM=="scsi_disk", ATTR{provisioning_mode}="unmap" You can read the VID and PID from the lsusb output.

The "dist-upgrade" may be upgrading the major OS version from stretch to buster.
That is directly contrary to the advice given by Raspberry Pi themselves:

Because the dist-upgrade (= full-upgrade) doesn't by itself upgrade the current system to the next major OS version.

Kendek

Then I don't know, but I'm sure that the CEC (libCEC 4.0.4) works well with LibreELEC.

I would not run the "dist-upgrade" option without making a backup the the SD card.

Why? The dist-upgrade (= full-upgrade) is completely safe in itself and will not upgrade the current system to the next stable or other distribution release.

The Pi4 uses a totally different USB interface on the end of a 1xPCIe lane (5Gbps), and ethernet is on a dedicated interface out of the SoC.

I think this is not fully correct, the single PCI Express Gen 2 lane in the Pi4 providing a total of 4 Gbps of bandwidth.

Kendek

Read-only file system, so I think a filesystem error has occurred. Maybe the SD card is weared out.

You need to enable HDMI 2.0 in your TV settings. With Samsung this is the HDMI UHD Color feature, and on LG the name is HDMI ULTRA HD Deep Colour.

The OpenVPN server works just fine on the Pi. If you don't know how to configure it, then use an installer script . If you want to configure it manually, it's not that simple . I used my script on my router and moved the contents of the /etc/openvpn directory. If you just want a good VPN server, may...
