Re: rpi 3b+ vs 3b? Critical supply issues - Anyone know if the OS and libraries are essentially the same?
Have not seen any. Same image across the board, same behavior, never mind what hardware it is running on, apart from performance when it comes to CPU-intense tasks on different types of CPU (like 0w

Re: rpi 3b+ vs 3b? Critical supply issues - Anyone know if the OS and libraries are essentially the same?
All distributions of Raspbian/Raspberry Pi OS are intended to run on all models, from the original 1B to the 4B, the A's, and Zeros. If you look in the /boot filesystem you will see different kernels,

Re: Ad hoc WiFi connections
I might be way off what you are intending to do here, but have you looked at wifi-connect? The wifi-connect service runs in the background of a pi: - if the rpi has internet connection then all ok -

Re: Ad hoc WiFi connections
I used to set up RPi's in ad-hoc mode about 10 years ago when I was meshing WRT54G's but this was back when WiFi dongles were needed on the RPi's. Static IP addresses were used in the 10.*.*.* address

Re: Ad hoc WiFi connections
Found about that not too long ago as well. Not one bit happy about that. Thx, Microsoft, so much appreciate that one. Apparently wpa_supplican.conf can be tweaked to support ad-hoc, like described

Ad hoc WiFi connections
Has anybody recently set up ad hoc WiFi connections in Linux Mint, Ubuntu or any other Linux distribution? Windows 10 does not support that mode any more and the new WiFi chips like the one in my work

Re: Short article on how to "Customize RPi splash screen & boot up video"
Right -- it just never occurred to me that there would be a use case for it. All my gear is command line only, so the idea to try anything video doesn't came up. Paul James wrote:

Re: Short article on how to "Customize RPi splash screen & boot up video"
We are using the method on our production rpi. Just wish I knew blender better to take out a ¡®wobble¡¯ from the water renu logo, which I 360 rotated in fusion 360, then extracted out the wave

Wait, what, videos at startup? Impressive! Guess I might at some point briefly stop running these things headless.

While I knew about how to change the boot up splash screen I didn't know (or think about) adding a video to the boot up sequence. Still, after reading the article it's kinda hit me, like DUH! Despite

Re: Dallas RPI Usergroup Meeting 9/2021
Yes, we can. There's a conflict with another group having an RPI install party, like set up a Pi from scratch, then add HamRadio. That second part I want to see for sure. Have to figure out on how to

Re: Dallas RPI Usergroup Meeting 9/2021
Looks as if we have a bit of a scheduling conflict at the lab. Another RPI class got scheduled for the same time. Trying to figure out how to resolve that. Either way, there's going to be a show. :)
