Raspberry Pi

@cobito:

¿Quizás un conflicto de IPs?

No, although just in case I have also set the laptop to a static IP and restarted the router, but nothing is working.

[cobito]

I find it strange that it doesn't accept calls from SSH and not from the transmission daemon either. What were you doing just before this happened to you?

[Yorus]

I think the last thing I did was a transmission test a week ago, when I was trying to put the hard drive and it ended up working for me even though it gave me an error when I went to save the downloaded file (a 2Mb PDF), but it was a matter of permissions to the disk or the directory where it is mounted. After that I turned it off with'shutdown -h now'.

[cobito]

I can only think of two things:
· That something has corrupted on the SD card (the most I can think of is that you do an apt-get upgrade and an rpi-update).
· That the Raspi is not receiving adequate power (plug it in without a network cable, no HDMI or USB and when it has finished charging, connect the network cable and try an SSH connection).

[Yorus]

The power supply is ruled out, as I have done the tests with only the power supply and the network cable connected and I have tried to let it start up even without the network cable and connect it later. As a power supply I have used the mobile charger of 1 Ampere which was what I had used until now, the USB hub with a 2A power supply and the USB 3.0 port of the laptop.

I think the issue is going to be about the data corruption option. Let's see if I can get an HDMI cable so as not to use my parents' living room TV or if not, wait until Wednesday and be at my beach bar.

From bad to worse, I've gone from having no network services to not detecting eth0 and finally to having problems with the file system. It smells like problems with the SD card, but the ones I have don't appear in the list of http://elinux.org/RPi_SD_cards as either good or bad. Looking at that list, I see that of the 3 class 2 SDHC cards of 4Gb that appear, two of them give problems. I will try to find something more compatible, because the other one I have is the same but 8Gb and there is no similar one in the list. I'll also go for something class 10.

[cobito]

Did you try out the card with the Raspi or did you have it before? How long have you been using it on the board?

[Yorus]

I had it before, and I used it several times with the GP2X console, but I don't think it reached 10. With the raspberry it hasn't been more than in tests, I haven't had time for almost anything :eoh:

[cobito]

It's strange. I wonder if it has been given too many accesses and has deteriorated, but if she has only used it to test... I have just moved the files from the web server to the hard drive, let's see if it crashes due to excessive read/write cycles.

[Yorus]

I will do the same, leaving only the system on the SD, although I think it can be done so that only the boot is left on the SD and the rest on the external drive.

I put a couple of photos of my raspberry pi, which arrived yesterday ;D

[Yorus]

The little box is cute, you will be posting your progress with the little one soon.

[cobito]

Madre mía, with case and all; what power. I have it tied with three commas to a 2.5 disk :ugly:

[victorpexacos]

I bought everything from ModMyPi. Raspi B + Case + Charger 5,25V@2A = 55e shipping included.

It's cheaper than at Farnell (about 50e -without charger) and it arrived in a week. The case is a free gift when you buy the raspi and you can mix and match the colors as you like. I'm really happy to have bought it from that site.

The charger is this:

For those interested, the 5 mpx camera module for the Pi is already on sale.
Camera board available for sale! | Raspberry Pi 20€ approx.

[cobito]

Well yes, I read a while ago that they were going to release the 5 mpixels camera. The truth is that the image quality is quite regular, but I am very likely to end up buying it for a little project I have in mind.

[Tecnho]

For 119USD they give a complete :troll: this kano looks good.

[cobito]

As a toy it's okay, but for that price there are much more interesting things to use as a PC (though, without so much frills).

In the guide I made some time ago, you can see the performance for everyday tasks and unfortunately, it doesn't measure up to certain basic tasks like browsing the web.

The raspi has a lot of potential as a home server and for graphic applications in electronics projects.

As a desktop "PC", it could be very useful as a dumb terminal as long as they are office tasks.

[Tecnho]

You've seen the fridge of this pi XD

[cobito]

I think it's an exaggeration, but it looks pretty enough.

Puff la raspi, I've had it abandoned for too long. I hope to have a lot of free time in June or July, to see if I can tinker with a few things I have pending.
