Thank you!

Great my Pi is detacted! (only when using ethernet cable, it is possible to switch permanently to wifi?)

Now when I try to upload B58 panel to the Pi it shows windows with upload bar but nothing happenes.
When pressing enter on the Pi I get: ERROR SimRemoteServer: Failed to construct request object, unknown id 2
---
AirPlayer just uploaded the new version.
And now i get [ 17.961567] rc.local[520]: AirPlayer: ../src/si_gl.c:258: compile_shader: Assertion 'sharder_object_id !=0' failed
so I can not see the RPi on my AM3 Beta.

regards

Hi,


There are ways to configure the pi to use WiFi:
https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentati ... ess-cli.md

The request error is my doing :)
I just uploaded a new version for the raspberry. It should update itself if you reboot your pi (and is connected to the internet).

I'm also creating a new SD image as an alternative.

The assertion is something I haven't seen before. My first guess would be that the resolution you are running is to high. Could you try setting it to 1920x1080 to verify if that is the issue?

Ok so now I'm testing regular 1920x1080 mode.

Panel is uploading to RPi, but I have missing instruments and the are static, not updated from the XP11. Here is the image:

It could be limited GPU memory.

Could you try:

Code: Select all

gpu_mem=256

Not sure, but I think I have seem something similar before,

Good it helped. All instruments are loaded correctly but unfortunately does not animate, fps indicator works (34-40fps)

One step at a time :)

Are you sure that you have the raspberry pi and the computer running your flight simulator on the same network?

Also, have you installed our flight simulator plugin?

Right now I have RPi connected using Ethernet cable and simulator over wifi to the same network.

I'm using Air Plugin 2.1.8 (your app on the iPad works fine)

btw how to access command line in the RPi? Is there any command to escape from AirPlayer and than come back again? I would like to use wifi rather than ethernet... but I need to get to the wpa_supplicant.conf, right?

Hi,


You can just login into the Raspberry using ssh and using pi/raspberry as credentials and change the WiFi configuration file. But I'm guessing you already did that to change the config.txt right?

It is weird to me that the Raspberry won't connect to your flight simulator.

Could you double check if the IP address of the Raspberry and the flight simulator PC are in the same network? Most of the time, that is the problem.
Could also be a firewall on the simulator, although, then the iPad should not work aswell...

Sorry I actually edited the config.txt on SD card connected to my Mac. I have almost no knowledge about the ssh :(

So I need to learn a bit.

I'll check the IP addresses.

thanks

Ah okay.

You can use a program called putty to connect to your pi.
http://www.putty.org/

Start putty, type in the IP address of your pi, and click 'Open'.

Use pi/raspberry as credentials, and you have the Raspberry console.
