New Raspberry Pi Display 2
Hi All! Im trying to build a 73Linux. Hardware is Pi 5, New Display touch 2, gps/glonas dongle.
The Display is 720 ¡Á 1280 Portrait but in software I can switch it to Landscape 1280 x 720.
I'm missing the lower part of the screen. It's a way to fix it?
Thanks in advance

Conky issue on RPi 4 on Bookworm
Hello all!
I run several Pis with BAP. My main Pi 4 8gb is used mostly in the home shack for remote FT8 over VNC, as well as POTA. It's on Bullseye, and it's been super reliable. BAP/73Linux features are very valuable to me. I'm building a new Pi to use with a new-to-me FT-891. As such, I've decided to try out Bookworm, and I'm having some issues. ?
So far, I've:
-installed the latest image of Raspberry Pi OS
-ran 73Linux for the items I want (conky and others)
-switched from Wayland to X11 so RealVNC works
-got RealVNC working the way I need (adjusted config.txt with a few minor lines of code to force a console size, and hdmi_force_hotplug to resolve fullscreen window sizing issues) ?
But Conky has been a real issue. With hdmi_force_hotplug=1 implemented, it's in the right spot, but it's basically just a black box, with no text. I've done some reading, and it seems it's a colour interpretation issue. I was able to edit .conkyrc to change one line to "draw_outline = true,", and I end up with the attached screenshot.
?
Any ideas how I can move forward to make Conky work properly? I mean, at least now it's usable... but barely.
Oh - Where did the option to change the temps to Celsius get moved to? It used to be in Conky-prefs, I don't see it now. ?
Thanks in advance!

Re: VARA in Dec2023 on a Pi
What is the state of installation scripts for VarAC on Pi 4 with 73Linux?? I believe Wayland was a problem earlier, but now that Raspberry has changed the graphics manager is that still a problem? Do I need to use 32-bit applications, or can I use 64-bit?
?
Ideally, I'm hoping to just run 73Linux update and have everything needed (Wine, etc.) installed, but not sure if that is the current state.

When in use, the RPi USB ports put out a lot of RF noise that interferes with GPS reception. If you use the slower (not blue) USB ports it is a little less noisy. If you use a long USB extension cable and get your GPS further away it helps. Even better is if you use your phone GPS with GPSD instead of a dongle. Not only will it work better, it's one less thing you have to take to the field. 73 de AD4XJ Brian On Mon, Nov 4, 2024, 22:07 George via <HP1GDS75=[email protected]> wrote:

I have been having problems to make work my gps when I use my raspberry pi 4B connected to a external USB SSD hard disk. It seems to see few satellites status, but does not fixed. Different situation when I boot with a micro SD card, it get fixed with no problem.
?
I have changed all USB ports to boot the SSD hd but it is the same, never get fixed and only with cgps -s only gets few 2 to 5 SATs but does not get fixed. I have tried Gps update tool, etc..
?
Any help is appreciated.

Need help with APRSDroid
I ran into an issue ?and need some help, I am running this version of APRSdroid on a Revvl android tablet connected to an anytime at-5888uv. It¡¯s connected via a digirig mobile using a dev version of APRSdroid ?
? ?It connects fine and transmits with no issue. I confirmed with aprs.fi and with my PC connected to an ht. However it will not decode any packets. I confirmed that the anytime is receiving audio but the tablet does not decode it. I probably have an APRSdroid setting or setting configured wrong. Any advice would be much appreciated.? |
