NasBerryPi RPi Resize Flash Partitions This page describes activities relating to partitions on the Raspberry Pi for Linux based operating systems, such as Raspian Linux. It may also apply to other operating systems too, but you should check. Incorrectly using the following instructions is likely to corrupt your system. The prepared images for the Raspberry Pi are created for SD cards of the size of 2GB. The SD card can be resized or restructured to use the full size of a SD card that is greater than 2GB. Raspi-config If using the Raspian or Debian images the raspi-config utility can be used to resize the main partition to fill the SD card. This will happen automatically. Explanation Backup You might want to backup your SD before resizing partitions. Manually resizing the SD card on Linux Tutorial video here: Following on from the instructions above, keep the newly-written SD card in the card reader, but unmounted. Show partition information to find your SD card $ df -h Unmount the partition You're done!

HyperPixel - 3.5" Hi-Res Display for Raspberry Pi My first HyperPixel failed to detect touches in a certain screen region, so Pimoroni without any hassle sent me a replacement display and refunded me for sending back the defective unit. The replacement works like a charm. Installation of the driver services works right out of the box, and I did this in headless mode via SSH. The display is sharp and simply looks good. My replacement HyperPixel came with a warning sticked affixed to the display itself. I also noticed that the replacement unit doesn't come with the black sticker in the bottom left corner of the display front anymore, where the cable goes into the LCD. The only things I see currently lacking in the HyperPixel that keep me from giving 5 stars are: 1. Other than that, a really well-done product.
Sneak Peek: Adafruit Raspberry Pi WebIDE September 19, 2012 AT 2:14 pm We love the Raspberry Pi. This tiny computer has so much potential for makers, and it is offered at an extremely reasonable price. The one thing we didn’t like about the Pi is how inaccesible it is to those who are new to Linux. As the name suggests, the Raspberry Pi WebIDE is entirely web based. We have also included a built-in terminal so you can listen to, and talk directly with your Raspberry Pi. We have so many cool things planned for the WebIDE, and expect to have plenty of updates (especially at the beginning). Like I said, this is just a sneak peek, and covers only a few of it’s many features. Stay tuned to the Adafruit blog for more updates. Related Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.

Pi Crust breakout board makes it easy to get peripherals on Raspberry Pi Joe Walnes, a Chicago-based hacker and maker, has just released a design for what he has dubbed the Pi Crust: a very cheap new hardware add-on for the Raspberry Pi. The breakout board, which debuted on Wednesday, is meant to make it easier to tack various hardware peripherals onto the cheap computer, and it does so in an compact design. The new board only adds 2mm of height to the existing Raspberry Pi. As Walnes lays out on his site, there are various well-labelled pins, including GPIO, I2C, SPI, UART, and power. "This makes it so you can connect things directly to a Raspberry Pi. Expanding access to the Raspberry Pi's General Purpose Input/Output (GPIO) pins is probably one of the most important aspects of this add-on—Arduinos, for example, use GPIOs to read from various environmental sensors. "However all the different signals are grouped together, which makes them hard to connect to. Walnes isn’t selling the Pi Crust; he's just making the design specification available.
Raspberry Pi and realtime, low-latency audio [Linux-Sound] The Raspberry Pi can be set up to handle realtime, low-latency audio but it requires quite some tweaking. Hence this Wiki article in which some common bottlenecks as well as some possible optimizations will be described. Last but not least this article will explain how to get JACK aka jackd running on your RPi. Powering the RPi If you use the micro-USB power input to power the RPi you might encounter sudden reboots when plugging in or unplugging USB devices. Overclocking With the raspi-config tool or by editing /boot/config.txt directly it is possible to overclock various parts of the RPi (CPU, GPU, SDRAM). More info on overclocking: CPU frequency scaling From the aforementioned link: “The latest kernel has a cpufreq kernel driver with the “ondemand” governor enabled by default. So when overclocking your RPi for audio usage you should set the governor to performance as a scaling CPU can cause audible glitches. RPi2: Disabling unneeded services #! exit
Raspberry Pi Peripherals Adjustable Enclosure System The adjustable enclosure system is designed as a sandwich. The Raspberry Pi (Rev B boards with mounting holes) is held by the top cover. The RAS-DAS-1 and any other boards are held in place from the bottom cover. There are no mounting connections between the Raspberry Pi and the additional board. Not Just the Raspberry Pi Most enclosures are designed to house just the Raspberry Pi itself. The adjustable enclosure system was designed from the start to house multpile boards. Raspberry Pi itself one or more accessory cards which connect to the Raspberry Pi such as : RAS-DAS-1 Audio Explorer card Since the enclosure is expandable, even the small size, can hold up to two additional accessory cards. Ventilation, And Access To Ports, And LED's The adjustable enclosure is open on all sides. No Mechanical Strain The Raspberry Pi is held in the enclosure by the two mounting holes (currently only Rev B boards only are supported). Adjustable - Expandable
