|---|---|---|
| InHisName | rmg51: you're near Warminster ? | 02:20 |
| rmg51 | InHisName: Cheltenham | 08:56 |
| InHisName | I'd like to borrow it. Is it an adapter for PS/2 keyboard and mouse that you have ? I might be able to come by mid after 11 or so. | 10:43 |
| rmg51 | PS/2 into computer | 11:39 |
| rmg51 | I should be home around 12P.M. | 11:40 |
| InHisName | Will it mate to Raspberry PI ? It has USB connections ? I have several PS/2 Keyboards and Mice BUT no usb versions NOR adapter (USB to PS/2 keyb & mouse) | 12:44 |
| jedijf | micro center has inland products like $5 each | 12:55 |
| jedijf | usb kb mice | 12:55 |
| jedijf | or ps2 - easy to have spares | 12:55 |
| jedijf | and those darn connectors.....have but where......lol | 12:56 |
| jedijf | always come across them when i don't need them....... | 12:56 |
| InHisName | I got like 3-4 keyboards and 2 mice all PS/2, none are USB | 12:59 |
| InHisName | PI is USB only inputs | 12:59 |
| InHisName | I ordered a keyb/mouse adapter to USB but its not to arrive until Wed. I want to get PI up sooner if possible. | 13:00 |
| rmg51 | my adapter wont help then | 13:00 |
| InHisName | Hmmm will the PI work ok with the adapter and PS/2 stuff plugged in or are there drivers needed ? | 13:01 |
| InHisName | You have a USB keyb/mouse to PS2 adapter (computer) ? | 13:02 |
| rmg51 | the adapter I have is for usb keyboard/mouse to non-usb computer | 13:02 |
| InHisName | I have 4 of those | 13:02 |
| InHisName | Ooops, I do have a USB mouse, but no keyboard. Mouse wasn't in storage but in use. | 13:04 |
| jedijf | InHisName: ssh is installed by default - ssh in - install x11vnc - vnc in - don't need kb and mouse - actually i think its waste - | 13:37 |
| jedijf | InHisName: may have to ssh in - do raspi-config to automagically launch desktop so vnc will work | 13:37 |
| InHisName | NO SD card. I assume I build my own up. Also want to have wifi dongle supported and route from USB dongle to wifi to make hot spot. Doubt if it is all automatically set up that way. | 15:47 |
| InHisName | I have an empty SD card to use. | 15:47 |
| InHisName | So, oooo, I can make up an SD card on my linux box and it will boot up on PI with ssh already running ? How to know what IP to request for ssh into it ? Link to instructions to build the SD card that boots PI, I have several that tweek what was there for more effects. | 16:07 |
| InHisName | See above , jedijf, or rmg51 | 16:07 |
| rmg51 | I see, but can't help you | 16:17 |
| rmg51 | I don't have a PI | 16:18 |
| InHisName | I found some to browse thru | 17:48 |
| JonathanD | z | 21:53 |
| InHisName | Oh my ! there are so MANY os'es to choose from for the PI. Any recommendations ? debian or maybe The Arch flavor ? They were at the FOSSCON saying it was a good choice. Or something else ? | 22:11 |
| InHisName | Oh good grief ! there's a Plan9 for the PI. | 22:11 |
| InHisName | Moebius seems interesting and can fit in as small as 1GB card. | 23:02 |
