2021-12-17 Thread Wiredcharlie
I'm using Ubuntu 16.04 and have WOL working. There is a delay of about 10 seconds before the computer becomes visible to the network after wake. This is consistent with when the lights start flashing on the network socket. Is there a way to shorten this delay? Thanks Tony Asrock J3160TN-IT

Here is a shell script that takes input from the mouse scroll wheel to change the volume of the named local player. I wrote it with a view to hacking a Poundland mouse plus rotary encoder to put a real volume knob on my LMS / Squeezebox computer. I would welcome any comments or suggestions. Cod

I tried to use the alarm clock on my new server set up and found that it didn't work. The server is normally suspended and wakes properly using WOL. Wake set by OS is set in the BIOS. Digging a little deeper: Code: media@media-pc:~/Desktop$ dmesg |grep rtc [2.06

I am puzzled as to why the image isn't working for you, Robert. I'm running with an SD card made from the same image! As you don't have a monitor it is hard to diagnose the problem. Perhaps some others could try the image, even if not interested in the LCD, just to cast some light on this proble
