Using macbook pro as display for raspberry pi 2 [closed]
osx,raspberry-pi,raspberry-pi2
I guess that, for the first time, you will need to have a monitor, keyboard and mouse, and a LAN connection, for checking everything is going fine. After you set up everything, you can live by using SSH & SFTP, then setup x11vnc and you can be really good without...
Import Raspberry Pi GPIO error
python,raspberry-pi,gpio,raspberry-pi2
The script (or more precisely, the hardware.py-module) uses the RPIO module which has seen it's last release 2013 (https://github.com/metachris/RPIO), and thus doesn't support the RPi2. You can either create an issue in the RPIO-tracker, and hope for an updated version (not sure how likely that's going to happen though) rewrite...
Access GPIO (/sys/class/gpio) as non-root

You can do this using udev rules, which can define actions to execute when the kernel instantiates new devices. Current versions of the Raspbian distribution for Raspberry Pi devices contain the following in /etc/udev/rules.d/99-com.rules: SUBSYSTEM=="gpio*", PROGRAM="/bin/sh -c 'chown -R root:gpio /sys/class/gpio && chmod -R 770 /sys/class/gpio; chown -R root:gpio /sys/devices/virtual/gpio...

Getting “Segmentation Fault” when using RPi.GPIO setup on Raspberry Pi 2
I am having the same symptom, Raspberry Pi 2 with Ubuntu Mate, 0.5.11 module. My code is much simpler: import time import RPi.GPIO as GPIO print "before GPIO.setmode" GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BOARD) print "before GPIO.setup" GPIO.setup(11, GPIO.IN) print "after GPIO.setup" It segfaults during GPIO.setup. I'll try switching back to Raspbian and see if...

Problems with controlling a servo with java and Pi4J on a Raspberry PI 2
The problem had nothing to do with Pi4J. The sleep period wasn't exact enougth. "The granularity of sleeps is generally bound by the thread scheduler's interrupt period. In Linux, this interrupt period is generally 1ms in recent kernels. In Windows, the scheduler's interrupt period is normally around 10 or 15...
