This $35 board brings 10 more USB ports to a Raspberry Pi 5

The Raspberry Pi 5 is a credit card-sized computer with a quad-core Arm Cortex-A76 processor and up to 16GB of RAM. It also has plenty of I/O capabilities thanks to support for WiFi, Bluetooth, Gigabit Ethernet, two micro HDMI ports, and four USB Type-A ports.

But what if you need more USB ports? That’s where the X1013 10-port USB Hub add-on board comes in. Available from AliExpress or The […]

PSA if you run a DRAM-less NVME SSD in a Raspberry Pi 5/500+ don't forgt to set


nvme.max_host_mem_size_mb=64

in your /boot/firmware/comdline.txt

after a reboot look in your dmesg for a line that says something like


nvme nvme0: allocated 40 MiB host memory buffer.

That's how much your drive actually requests.

Adjust the value accordingley in cmdline.txt and reboot again.

Raspberry Pi in there limetless wisdom have disabled HMB in fact they had patched it out in earlier kernels.

Raspberry Pi 6 is getting shape. What are the main features? Is it just around a corner?

Wasted a whole bunch of hours trying to get the 5Gz #wifi working on #RaspberryPi5 and #Ubuntu. Turns out that combination doesn't work as of now with the stock hardware. Added a post about it.

I'd like to install #Debian on my #RaspberryPi5.

https://raspi.debian.net/faq/ says, "We cannot plan for including RPi5 support at least until regular, upstream, mainline Linux kernels are able to boot on it." That's perfectly fair.

I wonder how close we are to having mainline #Linux kernels that work on the #RPi5? I see kernel 6.17 is now available in Unstable.

Among other distributions, it's supported by RaspberryPiOS (of course) and Ubuntu.

Piloter des WS2812B sur @raspberrypi Pi5 pose problème avec les libs historiques (PWM/DMA).
Suite à une question de Victor, j’ai testé une solution fiable basée sur le SPI matériel.

Done some mods on the #batocera console. More to come (the lady has bought me a Pi 5 for Christmas to upgrade it!)
