Hi Ronnie. I apologize I did not get notified that anyone had answered my question. I am trying to use the USB input on the DAC. I have tried both inputs USB A and USB B. I also tried my RPI3. >From what I've read in the manual the Windows Driver is the only one I see. Although on their site

Hi Ronnie. Well, I don't know what happened, but it's working. I'm assuming it's the third USB cable I tried. Thanks again for taking the time. I do appreciate it very much. Howard Man in a van wrote: > Can you try > > a) using the usb 2 sockets > > b) using a different rpi (3b+ or 3B) >

Hi, Trying to set up the Pimoroni Line Out Mini Hat with a Pi 4B running PcP 8.0 I've followed the steps in post #348. The Pirate audio card plays fine thru squeezekite, but with jivelite, the splash screen "Picoreplayer - red white and black" flashes briefly before going back to the console

I have dealt with the vagaries of Ralink and Realtek chipsets for many years now, so I endorse the decision to remove problematic drivers from the piCorePlayer distribution. However, this puts me in a quandry. I'm happily running pCP 7.0.1 on a RPi B+ with a Realtek-based USB dongle using the

Single core chips also have limited memory available, there is a chance you are running low of ram. Swap files are disabled by default. Perhaps remove nozswap from the command line. As for what's in the kernel, lists of drivers to chipsets to commercial products are not well maintained.

I rebooted back into 7.0.1 with my new driver in onboot.lst, and wireless came back up. (This is a headless system, wifi only.) I will probably shut it down, take a SD card image, and then attempt a 8.0.0 in-situ upgrade. But I am still very interested in swapping to in-tree USB WLAN

Rebooting is fine, since you are on 7.0.1. The new kernel drivers would not be used anyway. I'm concerned about the error. It seems part of the install script from the source package did not pickup the new kernel name, and used the running kernel name. The extension may have no contents.
