Hello! Okay group I just brought up the Slackware 14.0 for the Raspberry pi image available on Stanley Garvey's site. Aside from one nit, the device almost arbitrarily changed the eth0 setting to eth1 for reasons it did not clearly explain.
Everything worked correctly from that one on. However how do I go about changing from UK keyboard to something resembling a US one? In this case Stanley I borrowed my screen from a (what else?) system running Slackware-13.37 and connected to it the HDMI cable via a HDMI-DVI adapter that I bought today. Earlier I also bought an 8 Gigabyte card on sale from Staples and used an image writing tool from that system to write things out. And then connected everything from there. It came up exactly as expected. Except for that one nit concerning the Ethernet device swap. I once saw that happen on an Intel system I was trying to revive and knew where to fix things. But here? No I don't. I have the installer based image that David Spencer made up and with that and the screen I'll probably create a more customized one. The one strange thing is why would things swap names for the Ethernet one? But otherwise it is all good. ----- Gregg C Levine [email protected] "This signature fought the Time Wars, time and again." _______________________________________________ ARMedslack mailing list [email protected] http://lists.armedslack.org/mailman/listinfo/armedslack
