Re: getting started with a raspberry py
Re: getting started with a raspberry py Hiya there:F123 supports the on-board card, as well as usb cards. Though I did find that one of my adapters I thought didn't work, actually did but was muted. Thank God for the command line and alsamixer. (grin)Most of them though, should just work.To keep the topic game related, there are in fact some games on it. Some of which are text and some in the gui environment.My favourite game on there is the Callisti mud.

Re: getting started with a raspberry py
Re: getting started with a raspberry py Hi.@AngelThere are 2 programs I know of to flash programs to an SD card. I primarily use Etcher, because you don't have to extract the .img file when flashing it, it automatically does it for you, plus it's very easy to use.However, if Etcher doesn't work for you, you can try another program that is very accessible called Win32 Disk Imager. Unlike Etcher, it can make a backup of your SD card's image, which is very useful. However, you will have to extract the image file before using it because it doesn't like .tar.gz files.

Re: getting started with a raspberry py
Re: getting started with a raspberry py Hmmm. I'd really like to buy one of these, but the USB 2.0 ports are hard to swallow.

Re: getting started with a raspberry py
Re: getting started with a raspberry py Well, I thought I'd wait for a while to see if anyone mentioned it, but there is an image that, although it's alpha, I'm using for quite a few things, and it comes out of the box talking.It's called F123 Light and has a few translations in other languages then English, so you'd want to make sure you got the right image.It comes up into a menu, which uses Fenrir for the screen reader, and by default Espeak for tts.It does offer a way to drop to the command line, and will run some graphical programs with Orca, just not the whole desktop at once.It's a nifty mix of both, and it's aim is to be simple to use.The link for it is:http://public.f123.orgThere's a guide that tells you how to use it, and you can get the image onto the sd card in the usual ways either from Linux or windows.You'll want at least a 16 gig sd, I use a 32 because the Canakits I buy come with them.I've got Slackware and Raspbian on two of them both with talking speech, but the F123 Light is the easiest to use.These critters aren't for the faint of heart, but with a little homework before ya start, they can be fun and sometimes even useful...

Re: getting started with a raspberry py
Re: getting started with a raspberry py So far, this topic has proved interesting. I have my raspberry pi here sitting off in a corner acting as a radio link to the DStart network. Anyway, the pi I got came as a part of a kit. one of the peaces of this kit was a preloaded SD card. So once it got put together, I could hook it in and let it boot. So, I can tell you that with the right configuring before hand, you will not have to hook a networking cable into it. I personally lucked out by not having to do the configuring ahead of time, but other the other hand, the software I am running had a few access problems. Yes, the software I am running on this pi has a HTML UI that I can access from my PC, but no one had seemed to had thought about screen readers when designing the hTML UI, which means that the pages that I need to flip through is mostly accessible with a few problems that proved a bit on the painfull side. I am really really thinking about SSHing in in the future to make all needed setting changes. I wonder if anyone had thought about doing a networking router with one of these. As for the pi I have, it is a raspberry pi 0wh URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/post/403554/#p403554 -- Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com https://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector
Re: getting started with a raspberry py
Re: getting started with a raspberry py You know, there are a few other competing board out there with the Raspi. One i've heard a bit about recently is the Odroid which goes for 40$, and has USB 3.0 ports. Not sure what its accessibility is, but it can use Debian Stretch, Android, Armbian, Arch Linux, Kali, and a few others.

Re: getting started with a raspberry py
Re: getting started with a raspberry py Yeah, I'm a bit disappointed that both USB and ethernet are connected to a USB 2.0 bus. NOw I'm not sure if I want one.

Re: getting started with a raspberry py
Re: getting started with a raspberry py @angel_diva22Raspbian lite is just a console environment, so doesn't come with any desktop environment.

The guide uses Raspbian Lite and has a script you can run which installs xorg and configures everything, though again, you'll need an audio dongle for the Orca output.@ChrisYes, you still need to put in an ssh file on the Micro SD card, in addition to a wifi config file to enable wifi. The USB ports on the Pi are 2.0, so speed might take a hit, not sure what the setup is for external harddrives, but there are some threads [here] and [here] discussing it, depending on how many your attaching, you might want to use a powered USB hub as a go between rather than powering them straight off the pi itself.

Re: getting started with a raspberry py
Re: getting started with a raspberry py You can actually preconfigure the SD card image to enable wifi directly without needing an ethernet connection at all. There's a guide [here] on how to do it, and an earlier thread [here] on it. Basically you flash Raspbian Lite onto an SD card, then modify the image while the cards still in your PC to enable ssh, then you can add your network info, plug the card into the Pi, and tunnel in through wifi.As for Orca, I think there were issues with ALSA and Pulse Audio that were causing problems, the last working solution required an external audio dongle for the Orca output to work with a Mate desktop environment, guide for thats [here]. Not sure whats going on with that, but there's also been a few problems with ALSA getting bluetooth headphones working as well. On the flip side, I've found all my python dev tools can be easily ported over to the pi, along with OpenAL-Soft support. I've also been playing around with python based portable sonifiers similar to the Aftersight project, insert cheap webcam, a 5 dollar bluetooth controller, a pair of headphones, and a battery pack, then go for a walk, heh. A large part of what makes Raspi's so appealing isn't just the software side, but that its small, portable, can be powered by any number of cheap battery packs, and can be used to play around with all kinds of hardware like RC Cars, Drones, Robotic Arms, Computer Vision, Weather Stations, Radio Telescopes, or whatever crazy idea you happen to have at the moment.@angel_diva22Did you have any specific projects in mind for your friend?

Re: getting started with a raspberry py
Re: getting started with a raspberry py You know, I'm starting to really like the idea of a Pi. Now that I have a Linux VPS and am getting used to the command line, having an accessible GUI seems less and less important. i'm not saying it isn't important, because it would be good for new users or those who don't like the command line, but I'm starting to love the command line access you have in Linux. It's completely accessible because it's just text.If you can't connect your Pi to ethernet, I'd either not get one or find an accessible GUI image that can be flashed to the card and use Wi-Fi. Has anyone else contacted the Raspberry Pi foundation about including Orca in Raspbian? They really should!While researching things to do with my VPS, I found a couple of neat projects you can do with the Pi. First, you can host cheap network attached storage on your local network which is the primary reason I want one of these. You can also install Pi-hole to block all advertisements at the DNS level. That's badass! You can also apparently set up a VPN that triggers when you connect to a wireless network. That's also badass! This $35 computer sounds amazing!I wish I had better access to ethernet ports. The AT router is shoved up against a wall and not easy to access. If I had better access to ethernet, I'd get one of these in a heartbeat!

Re: getting started with a raspberry py Yeah, it can be done, but what's the point? The pie is designed to stay running and not be turned on and off. You can use a virtual machine to do everything you can do on the pie, if not easier, or just dual boot your existing system, and connect it directl to wi-fi. so, again, the point of doing that is?

Re: getting started with a raspberry py
Re: getting started with a raspberry py Oh yeah. Of course you would have to enable internet sharing on that other computer, which I don't find very hard. I've used this method to give an old computer internet access when I had it in Vinux. Sadly, that computer is history.

Re: getting started with a raspberry py
Re: getting started with a raspberry py For those that don't have access to their outer to do ethernet, couldn't you connect an ethernet cable to one computer, then connect the other end to the Raspberry Pi? Just a thought, as that works with regular linux and I was considering getting a Raspberry Pi, but the router my mother uses is in the living room and I don't have access to it.

Re: getting started with a raspberry py
Re: getting started with a raspberry py I guess i could try look into ethernet cables or something, or maybe a dongle.

Re: getting started with a raspberry py I don't see there's much point wating until school starts.

Re: getting started with a raspberry py
Re: getting started with a raspberry py Chris, wine start your_program_name.exe should do the trick. As for internet speeds, i was mainly thinking about stuff like rtr, and with friends who are on the same internet as me anyways. If i actually wanted to do something seriously i’d buy a vps or something. Btw, post 14, since i noticed your location thing was the blind zone, are you the same guy as the one on youtube?

Re: getting started with a raspberry py
Re: getting started with a raspberry py magurp244, you are awesome my friend!!!In college, I studied electrical engineering and computer science, and my profs always hesitated to let me try my hand at soldering. I'll take a look at the links you provided, and maybe this will give me some ideas. I knew there was some successful blind engineers out there, but didn't know some of the prevailing techniques. I usually had to deal with breadboard and abstract VLSI and verilog designs. Although, I think for a beginner, learning the software part of the Raspberry Pi is a bit more practical. Then, diving into hardware is the next natural step. I can provide notes on how I was able to make my own MP3 player with a Raspberry Pi, portable battery, USB flashdrive, electronic components, and speakup as speech output system.

Re: getting started with a raspberry py
Re: getting started with a raspberry py There are a few ways to go about working with electronics, conductive glue, conductive tape, or using press fit headers and jumpers. There actually is a guide to soldering for the blind published back in the 80's [here] that could prove useful.

Re: getting started with a raspberry py
Re: getting started with a raspberry py Thanks for posting this topic. As it so happens, someone picked up a kit call a zumspot which is a pi with a radio board that will act as a DStar hotspot for my kenwood radio. They were going to hand it to me over Christmas but was unable to make it. They did get someone to put the kit together for me, but I do wonder how the blind is supposed to put some of the things together that you can do with the pi seeing that I do not know how to go about soldering for those projects that need it. Yes, I am going to run mine headless, but to be frank, I will just have mine on the desk relaying my radio signels over the net.

Re: getting started with a raspberry py Is Noobs accessible?

Next, flash the image file using Win Flash tool which can be found at http://winflashtool.sysprogs.com/download/.

This should enable the SSH server on your Pi. Next, insert the micro SD card into the Pi, connect an ethernet cable, and finally connect the micro USB power supply. You will then have to find the Pi on your local network and use a tool like Putty to SSH into it.As far as I know, this is the only way to accessibly use the Pi without resorting to a bunch of hacks to get Orca running. This is one of the reasons that puts me off purchasing the device. It's unacceptable that the Raspberry Pi Foundation hasn't included Orca in their Raspbian desktop OS.

Re: getting started with a raspberry py
Re: getting started with a raspberry py Well, the first question I have is what kind of pi? Second, you'll preferably need a micro SD card flashed with either NOOBS or Rasbian Stretch to be able to boot the Pi.As for the boards layout, assuming you have a Raspberry Pi 3, you'll notice 3 blocks on one end of the board. Hold the board so those blocks are on top, and facing left. The block in the middle and lower left from that position are USB ports, 4 to be exact, two for each block. The upper left block is an Ethernet port. Along the bottom you'll notice a row of spikes, those are the GPIO pins, 40 in total. The pins are sequenced from 1 to 40 and have specific functions, the one on the far upper right is the first, the one below it the second, the third is just to the left of the first, and the fourth below the third, etc.If you start from the upper left ethernet block and work your way to the right, the first port you'll come across is the audio jack, just right of that is a thin rectangular CSI camera port. Further right is the HDMI video output, you can hook this up to a TV or monitor with an HDMI port for video and audio output. In the upper right is a small port, this is the micro USB Power Input, and is where you plug your power supply into. DO NOT try to power the Pi through the larger USB ports, it isn't designed for that.Starting from the upper right, if you move down you'll notice another thin rectangular port on the far right side. This is the DSI Display Port, underneath this however on the right hand backside of the board is a small square port, this is where you would plug in your Micro SD Card.Also, as have been mentioned before, be sure to check out [Raspberry VI], it has more guides and a mailing list that could prove useful.

When i first ordered it i sort of imagined there being a USB slot i'd use to connect it to my computer or something and i could handle everything from there, but although i can feel what i think is a USB port there's no cable i can use to connect it to the comp unless i'm missing something. Other than that there's what looks like some sort of charger, and a couple other things i'm not sure what they are.What do i need to do from here?
