Re: Show Application in CLI

Hi All
badidea, that was my first thought and I compared my statements with the post.
Perhaps it is time our forum had some way of verifying upon joining.

Haven't joined for a long time, so don't know what the procedure is.

Re: Mosquito MQTT header

Thank you birosys

I did see the mosquitto_loop option , but it is still polling.
It is probably better/faster than my polling using pipe..

Your code worked perfectly.

Re: Mosquito MQTT header

Hi All birosys, it looks like you have done a lot of work on this. Did you manage to use an interrupt to prevent the subscriber from polling for new messages ? I can't seem to find any options in Mosquitto to do this. Currently I am using Mosquitto on a Rpi-Zero as the broker and a Pico as the only ...

Re: [offtopic]Some cheap and tiny ARM devices.

Hi All

I have had a Pine Phone for two years now (with Mobian) and still can't rely on it as a daily phone.
Have updated and upgraded the software repeatedly, although cheap , not worth it in the end.

Show Application in CLI

Hi All I have installed Debian Bookworm OS Lite 64 bit on the Rpi . The idea is to run my Battery Monitor in the cli on a minimal system. It is text based output. No Desktop manager or Xserver etc. So, if I wait for the boot to finish and then type the command at the prompt, the program 'appears' to...

Re: Undefined reference AGAIN

Hi All

OK, so I did not relate writing a sub with the term "Defining a sub"
In other words writing the subroutine should be called Defining the sub.

But if my reckoning is correct, then you are right, the sub was not defined, because the name at the Define point was corrupted.

Re: Undefined reference AGAIN

Hi All Are you expecting that sub to be defined in a library? No, it is just a sub and not even a Function. All that should be required is to Declare the Sub and then call the sub, which is what I am doing. Just to prove that I made another sub and called it Test1 and declared it. Then commented out...

Hi St_W Have just installed the latest 64 bit Bookworm on my Rpi Zero 2 W.

Re: fbc creates "Illegal Instruction"

Hi All It's all good (BUT SLOW). The difference between the two boards is really obvious. I forgot that my app requires sudo because of the rpigpio routines and reading the A2D. So, when I tried to run the program from within Geany, the only surprise was the "illegal instruction" message. ...

Re: fbc creates "Illegal Instruction"

Hi All St_W many thanks for your reply. As I have only recently ventured into the Rpi area, I did not realise how much work you must have done in the area. I sincerely compliment you on this. I chose the latest date and installed and got it working with some oddities. Running Geany as normal user an...

fbc creates "Illegal Instruction"

Hi All Got confirmation that the Rpi Zero W was back in stock here in Oz, so bought one to back up my Battery Management system. Taking the uSD out of the original and plugging it into the new unit caused an "illegal instruction" message, when I try to run my app. Trying to re-compile the ...

Re: Sorting samples into the most abundant.

Hi All I measured the actual voltages with a high quality Fluke meter and then calibrated the A2D so it read precisely what my meter read. Using the Filter routine I have a stable output within about 1mV. As you may realise it is a bit of a fluid situation, where the balancer will continuously try t...
