Re: Headless Pi - Error?

 

well using ssh to get in; then using sudo raspi-config -> advanced options -> set screen resolution -> choose the last option -> "finish and reboot"? .... worked!

must have done this on the other pi without remembering it

thanks for the help!

Fred, thanks! That info will come in handy once I get connected. Those other settings would have been my next question :-)

Re: Troubleshooting conky

That is a new one on me.? I wonder if it is something in the conkyrc file.

If this is a new install, may want to run conky-prefs and reapply a template


Thanks,

Re: flrig setup with Kenwood TS-2000

 

Thanks for the reply, Jason. I ran the command you suggested and the response was: '/dev/serial/by-id/': No such file or directory.

There is a dev directory off the root but it does not contain a serial directory. I should add that my flrig install was done as part of BAP 3.0.8.

Re: flrig setup with Kenwood TS-2000

 

Tom,

Here are the settings in FLRIG for my TS-2000:

image.png

I am also using the SignaLink. The update?field /dev/serial/by-id/usb-FITDI_FT232R_USB_UART_AQ00S4VP-if00-port0 is selected.

I ran the command Jason suggested in the terminal window with the following result:

total 0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Sep ?6 13:29 usb-FTDI_FT232R_USB_UART_AQ00S4VP-if00-port0 -> ../../ttyUSB0

I hope this helps you!

I'm having no luck getting my TS-2000 working with flrig. My Linux ignorance plays a role in this, I'm sure.

I installed flrig on my Pi 4. I'm using a Signalink USB interface between Pi and the rig. When I try to set the flrig parameters I'm confused by the field Configure/Xcvr/Update. There I see choices of 'None', a bunch of '/dev/ttyxx' (where the xx ranges from blank to 63), and a couple choices of '/dev/ttyAMA0'. I cycled through this list, trying each one then clicking on Init, unsuccessfully. How do I know what should be entered in that Update field??

The Pi/Signalink/TS-2000 work fine with WSJT-X so pretty certain it's not a hardware problem.
Thanks for any help.

Re: Headless Pi - Error?

 

I¡¯ve been reluctant to try this and use dummy HDMI plugs that simulinstead. But with the Pi4 I¡¯d like to get rid of those due to needed adapters to the mini-HDMI jacks. Despite asking numerous times on various forums, I¡¯ve never been able to determine if it¡¯s possible to do this for BOTH ports. Somehow I think not. It¡¯s really great to have all the real estate of dual displays on the host even if the client is single display.?

Stability and yaac problems

 

Hi,

I¡®m using now BAP since 3 month, first a raspi 4B 2 without a case and 32GB ssd. Here I used mostly js8call, xastir with direwolf and wsjtx. The pi ran stable 24/7 and also the mentioned progs ran without any issue.
Meanwile I updated and put the pi into an argon m2 case with a 120G Kingston m2 ssd.
Here comes my 1st issue: the system isn¡®t anymore as stable as before. It is freezing 2-3 times a day
2nd issue, as I do not like xastir so much, I switched to yaac and configured it for digipeating and use of an agape port on direwolf as I did also for xastir. Starting yaac standalone, digipeating functions well and the map is filled with stations. If I start direwolf and then yaac, I get the stations via rf but no stations by the in yaac configured digipeater.

Maybe one of the group has an idea to solve one of the issues

Re: flrig setup with Kenwood TS-2000

 

First, make sure nothing else like WSJTX is trying to control the rig by closing those applications. Now with the radio powered up and connected to the pi, open a terminal and run
ls -l /dev/serial/by-id/
which should give you something similar to what you see below.

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Sep? 7 13:57 usb-Icom_Inc._IC-705_IC-705_12007996-if00 -> ../../ttyACM0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Sep? 7 13:57 usb-Icom_Inc._IC-705_IC-705_12007996-if02 -> ../../ttyACM1

The above information tells me that my Icom is connected to ttyACM0 & ttyACM1. In my case, I use the ttyACM0 in FLRIG.

Re: #buster #rpi Memory leaks? #buster #rpi

 

I notice the same thing on my Pi 3 test box. Left to it's own devices, the swap will fill up over time. This is one reason I have upgraded almost all of them to Pi 4s. If you leave them running all the time, you might consider adding a nightly reboot to your crontab.
00 03 * * * sudo reboot
The line above will reboot the Pi daily at 0300.

Try using the GUI Bluetooth tool to connect to the Pi first before running the rfcomm connect tool. Click on the Bluetooth icon in the top right corner of the Pi desktop.

Re: Garmin GPS Bluetooth #bap #bluetooth #gps

Aha, I think I am almost there.

The hcitool scan finds my Garmin and gives me the MAC address. When I input?sudo rfcomm connect /dev/rfcomm0 (MAC ADDR HERE) the Garmin flashes Input Password 1234. And that's where it gets stuck. I have got to find a way to disable the automatic password and then I am going to try again.?

Thanks, Jason! I am going to keep trying, This damn going to work thing keeps getting in the way of my having fun with BAP and my Go Box.?

Re: Low Noise Compact Portable Power for RPi

 

You can run them on the same Pi. I use OP25 to listen to trunked AP25 public service comms and GQRX as a general SDR receiving program.

#buster #rpi Memory leaks? #buster #rpi

 

Running RPi 3b
Raspian Buster version 10 latest updates

Is Raspian subject to memory leaks. Notice that after running a while (close to 2 hours)
and opening/closing a number of different applications installed with
Build a Pi that both main memory and Swap memory begin to fill
up and the Pi starts slowing down. A reboot solves the issue - Conky is great for
keeping an eye on this.

Is this a Raspian issue or is it a function of bad design for the applications?

Thanks, George AK4NG
