Nokajihow do I configure an additional internal drive so I can write to it? - long time since I had to do this21:44
Nokajiext3/ext4, currently partitioned but no data21:48
brobostigonlook up the rw flag for mount. :)21:49
Nokajiokie ... I rememeber something about setting 1000 or maybe 1001 but I can go form there, ty21:49
brobostigonyw.21:50
brobostigonbut yes also your user needs rw permissions to it as well, as well as telling mount you can read and write to and from it.21:51
NokajiAh ... it's all coming back to me :) ... user and group or something21:53
brobostigonbut nominally if you mounted said internal drive with something like nautilus, which will use fuse, it will do all that for you.21:53
Nokajitime for a break ... and a drink to er ... celebrate21:53
brobostigon:)21:53
NokajiOh21:53
NokajiI seem to remember it worked for a coupla reboots then no access ... was a while back so could be mistaken21:54
ali1234penguin42: adafruit has an 8x8 FLIR camera22:21
ali1234it's really cheap. like £20 i think22:22
ali1234i've been trying to get the webcam gadget driver working so i can make a FLIR webcam, but it seems to be broken, or the documentation is out of date, i dunno22:23
penguin42ali1234: Interesting, is it much more use than the IR thermometers?23:22
ali1234i don't know, i haven't seen it work yet23:23
ali1234https://www.adafruit.com/product/353823:23
penguin42hmm the component by itself without the regultor and shifting is about £15-2023:26
penguin42(from a normal UK supplier, or £78 on ebay!)23:27
ali1234it just about fits in the official pi zero case https://photos.app.goo.gl/z5uDCvCFhoByJ5bi123:30
penguin42ali1234: Probably not high enough res for cat  recognition23:30
ali1234probably not but it would work for finding burning plugs :)23:30
penguin42true :-)23:30
ali1234i plan to overlay the thermal image on the regular camera image with gstreamer, and then re-expose the result through a USB gadget device23:31
penguin42nod23:34
penguin42(Panasonics data sheet points out it's under export regs, I believe that's part of what limits the resolution/update rate available)23:34
ali1234figures23:35
ali1234i bought it from pimoroni anyway23:35
