Re: DFWRPI Usergroup Meeting 3/2023

 

I'm planning to give a talk about the Inovato Quadra SBC/set-top box.
It has the power of a RPi 3B+ but with 2GB of RAM and 16 GB of eMMC (flash)
so no SD card is needed. It comes with a case, power supply, HDMI cable and
built in 2.4GHz WiFi. A lot of hams are using it to drive their radios
because it's cheap, fairly powerful, and readily available.

Re: Needing some help with usb wifi adaptor / kernel headers mismatch - any ideas?

 

This here:



states at the bottom of the page:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
i was having this same problem, this is what i did to fix it:
after running the suggested above command
sudo apt-get install raspberrypi-kernel-headers

i found my headers in /usr/src
so i copied them to my build folder, but first i had to make one
sudo mkdir /lib/modules/5.10.103-v7+/build/
then copied the headers into that new build folder
sudo cp -r /usr/src/linux-headers-5.10.103-v7+/* /lib/modules/5.10.103-v7+/build/

now when i run my makefile, my drivers compile without the above error message

------------------------------------------------------------------------

I had a similar problem two or three years back. Found a script that pulled the exact kernel version I was running at that time out of Github. Built that from scratch, which, IIRC, did the trick. But then I also slept since then.

I wonder if that SDHC card is still somewhere.

BTW, would it perhaps be easier to use a known-supported USB dongle and a USB-A to USB-A extension cable so that not just the antenna, but rather the whole dongle resides outside the cage? Like this one:



You'll still have to find some kind of plastic housing for that thing.

Advantage is, you don't get much signal loss through the antenna connectors. Disadvantage, the antenna is smaller than an external one, and, depending on the dongle's power draw, the cable must not be too long.

Hope all y'all here in the DFW metroplex are staying put, and not venturing out into the great white icy mess. Come rain or shine, it's time for the monthly get-together, both in person at and online on Zoom.

A talk on Raspbian installation from scratch has been requested during the last meeting, so we'll be looking at my latest installer version.

As always, check for any last minute changes.

DFWUUG meeting Thursday, January 12, 2023, at 7 pm

 

Hi,

The January 12th DFWUUG meeting will be at 7 PM at Improving in Plano. Pizza will be available about 6:30. The talk will be available on Zoom.

This month's talk will be "PXE Server with Ansible and Vagrant", to be presented by Aaron Sohl.

Improving has offices at 5445 Legacy Drive, Suite 100, Plano, TX 5024. That's about a mile southeast of the intersection of the Dallas Tollway and the Sam Rayburn Tollway (Texas 121).

The doors to the building are locked at 6 PM. Someone will be available to let you in after 6. There may be a note taped to the building doors with a cell number on it to call to get someone to let you in.

You can get to Improving early and wait in their lobby. Improving has wifi available for guests, should you bring a laptop. I have gotten there as early as 5 PM.

Re: 100,000 units of [RPi] stock released to resellers just in time...

 

That'd be nice. Not going to hold my breath, though.

Same for the predictions of availability half a year down the road. At this clip a drop-in replacement would be nice.

Re: Raspberry Pi 4s For Sale At or Below MSRP

 

Despite my poor photography skills (and lighting), I thought I would add a photo of all the items.


Re: Raspberry Pi 4s For Sale At or Below MSRP

 

Hi Cornelius, they are still available.? I didn't want to list them anywhere else other than here first, because it seemed like it would be good to have available Pis for the user group.? If you don't mind cash when we meet that would be great.

I don't mind meeting you a little further south.? I also wouldn't mind checking out TheLabs if you can get me in as a guest while we do the sale.? I have always wanted to join a MakerSpace, but they are always a little too far from me to frequent.? We can sit down and plug in the Pis that are already in their cases so that you can verify that everything is good.? I have screen shots of the serial numbers, that I took today, of the four Pis that are already in cases.??


Re: Raspberry Pi 4s For Sale At or Below MSRP

 

I'll take them if they are still available... I can find both Gunter and Whitesboro. What forms of payment do you accept?

1 x Official Raspberry Pi 3 Case Black / Grey @ $9 = Free
1 x Raspberry Pi 3 Model B 1GB (In Use) @ $35 = Free
Complete Package = $603 ~= $600 / 8 RPI 4 = $75 per RPI 4 with Accessories + Free RPI 3B

Re: RPi Pico emulates Z80 and runs CP/M

 

Ah, cool, food for thought and play during long dark winter nights.

Also, an excuse to go shopping. As always.

but here's an interesting article about running a Z80 emulator AND CP/M
on a Raspberry Pi Pico!

No DallasRPI Meeting this Saturday.

 

Heads up, we are going to skip our monthly get-together this Saturday, Nov. 5, because I'm attending , and I've not figured out how to be in two places at the same time.

Sorry.

We'll be back to regular scheduled insanity in December.
