Headless Pi Reversal


 

开云体育

Hey Everyone....

i hope someone may have some ideas!!!

I am setting the shack back up and in the move, my wireless network has changed.? The issue im having is not my headless pi can no longer attach.? But I am having trouble as i can not see the screen once i connect the HDMI back to the pi.? Do i need to do something to enable the local hdmi since i went headless or am i just into build time now?

Thanks,
Terry k4hnt?





 

With the monitor attached, what do you see as you boot up?

Pi4 or other model? If Pi4 try the other HDMI port. All Pis should at least show power on and Rainbow screen (even Pi4) unless something else broke, or the wrong input is selected on the monitor.


 

Do you have an app like “Network Analyzer” if you do you can scan the IP address of things connected to your network and find your pi IP address.?I’m assuming you plugged Pi into the network, that would be first thing to do.?

Once you know the IP address you can VNC of SSH into the pi to change settings.

Ok, I got it figured out.??

Thanks Rih for the analyzer idea however because the network had changed it wan't possible as there was no wireless connection to connect too.

Kevin got me to thinking...I had made some changes to my monitor itself so i went back to the basics ans plugged mouse / monitor and keyboard directly into the Pi.? I had video but only for a few seconds then it went crazy and blacked out.? I was able to reset video settings then slowly add things back for the new monitor and all is well now. I can not use the highest resolution for the new monitor bit hey, i can live with that.? apt-get updates currently running

Thanks,
