Pi Entertainment System PES

Pi Entertainment System PES

Last update 2021

https://pes.mundayweb.com

PES is a graphical front end for a variety of games console emulators that has been written in Python by Neil Munday using PySDL 2.0which is intended for use on the Raspberry Pi

For ease of use on the Raspberry Pi, PES has been packaged into a SD card image using ArchLinux as the OS together with various emulators, Kodi and utilities including PlayStation 3 control pad support via Bluetooth to allow you to create your own games console. Support for Retro Achievements is included and you can use your TV remote to browse the user interface. Additional screen shots can be found in the Gallery.

Having used other emulation systems for the Raspberry Pi I decided to create my own set-up and user interface as a challenge, and to hopefully create an easy to use system. I hope you like it!

Este es un Linux mas tradicional, el usuario ya no tiene privilegios de root en ningún momento y hay que recurrir a sudo (y password) para tareas que requieran privilegios de administrador.

Para reducir el deterioro de la tarjeta SD, los siguientes directorios se montan en la ram:

/temp

/var/temp

/var/log

/var/log/apt

/var/cache/apt/archives

También he cambiado el sistema de paginación, ya no es mediante swapfile, es mediante Zram, para reducir aun mas las escrituras a la tarjeta. Estoy haciendo pruebas con el sistema de archivos f2fs en vez de ext4 pero por ahora no voy a hacer la migración.

Prelink y Preload instalados y configurados para agilizar la carga de programas. Prelink está configurado para ejecutarse automáticamente con apt ante los cambios de software y semanalmente.

Escritorios: LXDE como escritorio principal.

Slim como DM.

Tiene network-manager como gestor de redes, con soporte para redes ethernet, wifi, 3G/4G, Infiniband, vpn, etc.

He añadido un gestor automático de actualizaciones (de SolydXK, y sus repositorios)

Kodi 17.1-1 (y los repos de Pippleware para mantenerlo actualizado) con los addon habituales*.

JDownloader (y Java lógicamente, JDK8 de Oracle).

Otra versión de Synaptic con filtro rápido de búsqueda (como la que tiene linux Mint).

Gestor gráfico de usuarios.

Gestor gráfico de Samba, muy básico pero muy simple de usar para comparticiones puntuales, para compartir directorios fijos hay que configurar samba. De todas formas el directorio principal de usuario y un directorio de intercambio están preconfigurados.

Frontend grafico para OMXplayer (OMXplayerGUI y TBOplayer)

Kweb como navegador para ver videos de Youtube en HD1080p a pantalla completa, y Chromium con soporte para Flash y muy buena respuesta en HTML5 (youtube HD 720p modo cine, no pantalla completa)

Compton para la composición de escritorio pero sin aceleración GL (xrender).

LinSSId como escaner de redes wifi y modem-manager-gui como escaner de redes 3G/4G y acceso a datos de A-GPS.

Scantool para acceder a los datos de la ECU mediante OBD bluetooth o USB.

Raspi-config no tiene interface grafia, funciona en el terminal.

Ultimo Firmware y kernel 4.9.x

La imagen se instala de la forma habitual.

Es necesario adecuar el archivo config.txt a vuestra pantalla y sistema de sonido.

Se puede instalar en una tarjeta de 4Gb pero va muy justo, lo mínimo seria una de 8 o 16Gb.

El usuario por defecto es "tatxen" y la contraseña "raspberry"

El firewall (ufw) esta desactivado por defecto para facilitar el uso a usuarios menos avanzados, es muy recomendable activarlo y configurarlo. Se puede hacer cómodamente desde la interface gráfica (Gufw) que se encuentra en el menú principal, en Preferencias.

Es importante cambiar las contraseñas por defecto y poner las que uséis vosotros.

Para cambiar la contraseña de usuario:

passwd

Para cambiar la contraseña de Samba:

sudo smbpasswd tatxen

Para cambiar la contraseña de root:

sudo passwd

EthEmbedded

Last update 2016

http://ethembedded.com

– Raspberry Pi agnostic – Wether you have a Pi 1B, 1B+, or Pi 2 it is the exact same process
– Utilizes Raspbian(Debian based) OS for those of you who prefer that flavour:)
– Unattended install of the OS
– Consumes entire SD by default so no need to resize after install.
– Utilize default settings OR customize by editing installer-config.txt file prior to install (root password, IP settings, hostname, etc.)
– Utilizes dphys-swapfile so end user does not have to set up swap.
– Choose your flavor of Ethereum by which script you run – eth/cpp-ethereum OR geth/go-ethereum

EZ-WifiBroadcast

Last update 2018

https://github.com/rodizio1/EZ-WifiBroadcast

Affordable Digital HD Video Transmission made easy!

Ez-WifiBroadcast is a radically simple digital data transmission system. A bidirectional data link is established using commercial off-the-shelf hardware like WiFi modules and a pair of Raspberry Pi computers. Coupled with special software this unique system allowes transmission of low latency HD video, telemetry and control data between endpoints. In comparison to a classical wireless connection Ez-WifiBroadcast tries to imitate the famous properties of an analog link like graceful signal degradation and no association between the endpoints.

EZ-WifiBroadcast system is based on Befinitiv's Wifibroadcast project but since then has signicantly evolved and matured thanks to the active support from open source community members.

Supports Raspberry Pi1A+, Pi1B+, Pi2B, Pi3B , Pi Zero, Pi Zero W.
Typical glass-to-glass talency of ~125ms. Minimum achieved latency ~110ms (FPV-VR app allows for lower latency)
Raspberry Pi V1 and V2 cameras supported
HDMI cameras supported via HDMI-CSI adapters
Up to 1920x1080p 30fps Resolution and up to 12Mbit video bitrate achived
Support for 2.3/2.4/2.5Ghz bands as well as 5.2Ghz to 5.8Ghz bands
Ranges of 300m to 3km can be easily achived. In some special setups range of 30km was achived
Bi-directional MAVLink telemetry support
RC Control via MAVLink, SUMD (Graupner/JR), IBUS (FlySky), SRXL (Multiplex)
Quick bootup/startup, up to 10 seconds until video link is up
