    Hello All!

    Do you happen to have experience/ happen to know - some console script which is showing clock on screen (not GUI). Hours/mins are enough. Bash preferred ;-)

    Hello All!

    Thank you all for advices.

    I started use one in shell and it was nice.

    But scope changed a bit.

    Actually demand increased. And I am moving to X.

    (it is rasp. on many 86" TV).

    Weather on background was needed.

    Also to show some comercial numbers sometimes. And graphs needs to be shown (all https based).

    Hm. Spoke with manager again. OK. Idea to buy x so big TV's just for time was not so clever. We put together some other points ;-)

    My direction so far: each rasp is connected R/O to local NAS (where admin can manage content via easy bash script edit like: to show time with weather and every 15 minutes to show some numbers for one minute and then loop - using cvlc or something like that).

    Just came new request: to be able to show text on demand. (like "lunch break is moved 30 minutes earlier"). Hm. (loop in 15 minutes is now too long). And fronteend needs to be prepared.

    I played a bit with KODI before (kiosk mode, etc.)

    So far still looking. Probably to visit some railway stations how they do that ;-)

    (BTW, Samsung TV has nice MagicInfo solution, you need few servers, etc etc. Too robust for me...)

    Have some orchestration tool (ansible, saltstack...) manage software and changes? There should be plenty of solutions available to display some stuff, you just need the management part, right? Probably you could even use conky to do most of this.

    Have you ever compiled a kernel on a raspi? It takes forever. I am guessing I would stick with kv-5.15.15 as well rather than upgrade with every kernel release.

    No - only approx. 4 hours on RPi 4B with 4 Gb RAM :-)

    I am guessing I would stick with kv-5.15.15 as well rather than
    upgrade with every kernel release.

    I update kernels either after some serious security fixes being upstreamed or after a month (or two) had passed since previous build, whichever comes first.

    That's ok for production use and even for the distribution assembly.

    I'd go along with that as it more or less fits my observations over the past couple decades. Also, by past observation, I am thinking around 5.18.x before this latest development branch starts delivering on a few noncritical but always nice to have features such as boot penguins. :-)

    gentoo-kernel-bin is precompiled, it only localy compile the new patches, so it does not take long on a raspberry pi

    but it would if one did the whole gentoo-kernel, but again this compile can be done on a cross compile host

    and lastly new raspberry pi is not allways slow :=)

    i remember my quad core pii being slow, but always learned a rpi3 was faster, you asked me, i answered

    my pii quad had 1536 bogomips in redhat 8, my old hp dl 585 g1 had 43200 bogomips if thats matter on with one used most electical power to do it

    the hp have faster raid card then the whole computer, powerpc, 3 scsi 2 controller. so it could hook up 45 scsi 2 drives in raid 5 :=)

    Heh, heh. That is silly enough to be true.

    The last one for me was the raspi3. I did a custom build for it (aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu) that I am not sure I'd care to repeat. The raspi's don't really have anything to offer that is worth all the extra effort it takes. Also they waste a perfectly good broadcom wifi chip by NOT providing any external antenna connections.

    i have seen a hardware print for rpi to add 16 microsd card into one rpi cloud setup, wheater this is a waste aswell is unknown

    Hey Benny!

    why is microsoft keep the secret ?

    What secret? I thought we were talking about android.

    i like to learn more on qemu kvm how to make that in a libvirt
    setup

    I never went that far with it. I briefly had a qemu setup for aarch64 but wans't that happy with it. I thought the real raspi was better but then again I didn't try all that hard with qemu.

    windows 11 for arm64 will run on it ?, yes, does it support
    windows store apps for arm yes, does any one use it no :=)

    Sounds about right from what I've seen in this neck of the woods.

    unless it should connect to mobil phones in hotspot

    It did that but you couldn't get too far from the hotspot. I wasm't impressed at all, despite liking the chipset ... given proper antenna connectors that is.

    What a waste.

    depends

    They had their chance and blew it. Depends doesn't cut it.

    Life is good,

    I have seen such ideas and given the fact that microsd cards are so slow, the above setup is probably as good as any other of that nature. A waste? I have no reason for 16 microsd cards to be available at the same time. Do you?

    I've toyed with the idea of a raspi cluster but whenever I look at a raspi board the onboard crippled wifi chip causes me to stop. It is a deal killer for me but you never know what the future might bring.

    i only have linux kernel so far

    I never went that far with it.

    so atleast you tryed :=)

    I briefly had a qemu setup for aarch64

    that could be used for cross compile ?

    but wans't that happy with it.

    i think it would make sense to cross compile on faster hardware while running irc on commodore 64 :)

    I thought the real raspi was better

    if you prefer slow ? :=)

    but then again I didn't try all that hard with qemu.

    fair

    microsoft have imho no succes with arm yet, but the hardware is good, feels like owning a farari and wait for the motor engine :=)

    i think on travel this is fine, funny in trains to see how many have open wifi / hotspot without any password or even a WPA, ups or maybe middle WPA2, i have WP3 on both my huawei phones

    i just search for enterprise wifi in hotspot mode with radious password auth

    What a waste.

    Hey Benny!

    What secret? I thought we were talking about android.

    show me the android sources ?

    According to https://source.android.com/setup/build/building-kernels;

    mkdir android-kernel && cd android-kernel
    repo init -u https://android.googlesource.com/kernel/manifest -b BRANCH
    repo sync

    Also of note is the list of devices and their respective branches. The only 5.x kernel they show is android-gs-raviole-5.10-android12-qpr1-d for the "Pixel 6 (oriole)".

    I never went that far with it.

    so atleast you tryed :=)

    Always. I may pick it up again in the future but I am not holding my breath waiting for that to happen. Maybe just a qemu based one. Who knows?

    I briefly had a qemu setup for aarch64

    that could be used for cross compile ?

    Yes except in that case it isn't really a cross compile. I did build a couple aarch64 kernels on a x86_64 using a custom built cross compiler (gcc/g++ of course) but the rest was done natively on the raspi3b after that, inculding the final boot kernel.

    i think it would make sense to cross compile on faster hardware
    while running irc on commodore 64 :)

    You would. No commodore here so you'd have to settle with cross compile on faster hardware, x86_64 in this neck of the woods, and the hell with the irc chat.

    I thought the real raspi was better

    if you prefer slow ? :=)

    No but I do prefer an actual working system at the end of it all as well as the fact that I never use anything that cannot take care of itself, especially if the manufacturer is going to short change me on external antenna connectors. In the case of the raspi3b I have here, I went through the entire process of building a capable aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu despite the antenna situation seeing I already had made the investment. Now I know for sure why it is abandonware or at least until a suitable replacement identifies itself.

    microsoft have imho no succes with arm yet, but the hardware is
    good, feels like owning a farari and wait for the motor engine

    More like a Yugo methinks. Do they still make those?

    They had their chance and blew it. Depends doesn't cut it.

    shit happens

    Yes but in this case they are to blame for the shit happening.

    old 5.15.16 kernel was on january 21, 17 is today :=)

    cat /proc/version
    Linux version 5.15.17 (root@bitskii) (gcc (GCC) 11.2.0, GNU ld (GNU Binutils) 2.37) #1 SMP Thu Jan 27 22:12:02 UTC 2022

    Looks good from this angle.
