Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Wireless access point on piCorePlayer?
Layer 2 was possibly not the correct statement. I used a proxy arp bridge. The benefit of this is that the wifi adapter doesn't have to support monitor mode. paul-'s Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=58858 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=108341 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

I will try that AP mode with pleasure when you release it. Yes I was thinking of L3 bridging with the AP; either with eth0 or a USB adapter (or VLAN but I don't think that option would be too popular). I don't know how I can interpret your last sentence; if you've done it in the AP that is being tested, then that's great. If you mean it is feasible and it works, I certainly concur with that.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Wireless access point on piCorePlayer?
I have the AP mode done, I have a couple of folks testing. epoch, What are you bridging? two ethernet devices? Anyway to do what you want, you will need to remaster the initrd. I've heard of succuss just building CPIO initrd with just the one file you want to change, and then concatenating it to the end of the current initrd. But that seems to be a headache. What I would do is set nodhcp bootcode on the command line, then setup your network in bootlocal.sh I have also done layer2 and layer3 bridging with pCP wifi to ethernet. paul-'s Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=58858 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=108341 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Wireless access point on piCorePlayer?
I'm looking into this, progress isn't fast :) I want to have bridging as an option. After looking at the boot process and the various bits activating dhcp, static, wifi, I'm thinking what is needed first is a stable naming scheme for the interfaces. The current PCP uses udev v.174, so something like "70-persistent-net.rules" should be working. My rule is in a "netdevs.tcz" that is listed at the very end of onboot.lst. It doesn't work; I've tried naming the file to "10-persistent-net.rules" but that doesn't help. When the boot process ends, if I shut all interfaces down, reload rules and trigger them, this time I get my interfaces renamed. With TCL/PCP as it is, do I stand a chance of getting a custom rule taken into account at boot, or shall I wait for "normal" boot to end, nuke all networking and rename/restart it? (this option would work, obviously, but I find it messy.) 3 SB 3 Libratone Loop, Zipp Mini iPeng (iPhone + iPad) LMS 7.9 (linux) with plugins: CD Player, WaveInput, Triode's BBC iPlayer by bpa IRBlaster by Gwendesign (Felix) Server Power Control by Gordon Harris Smart Mix, Music Walk With Me, What Was That Tune? by Michael Herger PowerSave by Jason Holtzapple Song Info, Song Lyrics by Erland Isaksson AirPlay Bridge by philippe_44 WeatherTime by Martin Rehfeld Auto Dim Display, SaverSwitcher, ContextMenu by Peter Watkins. epoch1970's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16711 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=108341 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

I am assuming from the tone of the question you know this is an undervoltage warning. I think that th Pi warning is a little sensitive as I've had this warning on my Rpi running Kodi and experienced no problems or crashes I regularly get the warning running from USB ports or USB PSU's although the official Pi PSU seems OK (No warning) The Pi PSU has thicker cable than most (0.5mm^2 I think) most "Genuine" USB cables IE Samsung etc seem OK but lots have much thinner wire adding voltage drop. Most of the Pi's I use now have 3A Psu's with a DC Barrel connector to Micro USB adaptor these all work OK even powering a USB HDD as well. It sound like the PSU/Cable combination you have is just marginal as the flash only appears when you create load by actually asking the Pi to do something "extra" by making a selection etc. Try using a thicker cable and without the "Y", Run the Pi Screen from the headers with the wires supplied it might make the difference *Players:* SliMP3,Squeezebox3 x3,Receiver,SqueezeLiteX,PiCorePlayer x3,Wandboard *Server:* LMS Version: Latest Nightly on Centos 7 VM on ESXi 6.5.0U1 on Dell T320 *Plugins:* AutoRescan/BBCiPlayer/PowerSave/PowerSwitchIII/Squeezecloud/Spotty *Remotes:* iPeng9/Orangesqueeze/PC/Jivelite/SqueezeLiteX *Music:* 383GB,1346 albums with 18894 songs by 4501 artists mostly FLACs *Want a webapp ?* See http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?104305-Webapp-for-LMS Jeff07971's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=49290 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=103330 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Jivelite for piCorePlayer
I am using Jivelite with piCoreplayer on a Raspberry pi B 3. For the power supply I am using CanaKit Raspberry Pi 3 with 2.5A Micro USB Power Supply using a Amzer Convert Micro USB to Dual Micro USB Twin Y Splitter Charging Handy Data Cable, powering both the pi and the display. I notice the yellow lightning bolt pop up when rebooting, and also whenever I make a selection and the display changes. It stays on for a second or so and then turns off. I've tried various combinations for powering the units, including using the CPIO pins and also disconnecting the pins. I have the exact setup at another location and I don't get the lightning bolt on that one. Any suggestions as for troubleshooting? I'll re-seat the ribbon cables and see if that makes a difference and I may also have another 2.5A power supply that I can switch with another device and see if that makes any difference. stereoptic's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=53162 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=103330 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
