May 30, 2013 by Jack Zimmermann 1 Comment

Raspberry pi
After setting up a SMB Samba share on my Raspberry Pi in Squeezeplug, the size of the mounted volume showed the size of the SD-card instead of the USB hard disk. To fix it, I had to change the setup for Samba. Here’s what I did to fix it.

Raspberry Pi Car Computer

May 17, 2013 by Jack Zimmermann 2 Comments

Update: You can find my latest update on the progress of my Raspberry Pi Car Audio System here.

I’m working on a Raspberry Pi as a music player in my car. I’m putting all my music on a SSD disk in lossless FLAC. I’ve already got hold of a 2×16 character LCD with six button from Adafruit that only uses two pins for communication with I2C. It’s easy to program and it has four different background colors.

Raspberry Pi avahi-daemon disabled because there is a unicast .local domain – solved

April 6, 2013 by Jack Zimmermann 9 Comments

When setting up a Raspberry Pi with SqueezePlug, my favorite distribution for setting up a music server I always get the error message “avahi-daemon disabled because there is a unicast .local domain” because I have a lot of Apple equipment configured with Bonjour. To fix it, all you need to do is to edit /etc/default/avahi-daemon and change the line:

AVAHI_DAEMON_DETECT_LOCAL=1

to

AVAHI_DAEMON_DETECT_LOCAL=0

then restart the Avahi-daemon with

sudo service avahi-daemon restart

Problem solved.

How to use interrupts with Python on the Raspberry Pi and RPi.GPIO » RasPi.TV:

We’ve finally got interrupt capability on the Raspberry Pi for GPIO programming in Python using RPi.GPIO.

Interesting! Saving this link for later experimenting. Need buttons for my Carputer Raspberry Pi.

Secure browsing on iOS (iPhone/iPad) using OpenVPN and the Raspberry Pi « Remi Bergsma’s blog:

When I’m not at home I use my iPhone or iPad and connect to the internet using either 3G or public wifi. I want to configure my mobile device to setup an encrypted VPN tunnel and route all traffic through it, so I have a safe browsing experience. Fortunately, there now is an OpenVPN app available on iOS that allows you to do that! Please install this app using the App Store, and continue reading to set it all up.

Looks like another great use for a Raspberry Pi! I’ll try it out when I get hold of my third one.
