Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Jivelite on a Pirate Audio 240x240 screen
No worries, I got it working with the drivers from waveshare and some help from this thread for setting up jivelite. I still need to optimise the size of the skin, as the qvga square is smaller than the display, despite being 240x240, same as the display. freakk's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=71950 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111502 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

I suspect that I may find some advantage to rescanning LMS in 64 bit, otherwise I cant think of any other advantages for me as I only use pCP for LMS. Is there an other advantage to 64 Bit on a RP3B?

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] PiCorePlayer + IQaudio DigiAMP+ + 3.5 LCD
Some of the overlays have overrides, which means you can move the function to a different pin. But obviously re-routing the electrical connection is a bit harder. Take a look at the README in the overlay folder as to what the specific overrides are for each. That's why the DSI screen connector for the RPI 7" display is so nice, it doesn't conflict with other Hats. piCorePlayer a small player for the Raspberry Pi in RAM.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: piCorePlayer 8.0.0
Insitu_update From 7.01 to 8.0 went well. Been doing the Insitu_update since 6.0 Im on a RP3B. Did the Insitu_update do a 32 bit install? And if so, is the only way to get to a 64bit with a full install? Thanks for the great work.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: piCorePlayer 8.0.0
copy2fs is not of much use. It was initially added as an answer to the "supposedly" corrupt SD cards problem. But that problem didn't really occur on piCore, so it hasn't been implemented. You could completely run pCP in RAM, unmount /dev/mmcblk0p1 and do full backups of the unmounted partitions. It might sound better. :D Greg Erskine's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7403 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=114828 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

Hi was wondering what the advantages of using the copy2fs option in PCP8.0 are? Have done a number of insitu upgrades and a couple of installations from scratch all went perfectly thankyou very much. gegen's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41137 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=114828 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
