Since those two files are in the /etc/ folder, would it work to just change the DataFilePath in MMDVMHost rather than moving (in my case, copying) the files to the path specified in DataFilePath? BTW, after copying those files as you suggest, the DiskFree field is now populated; it went from “??” to...

When Adri, PE1BVU, mentioned that he installed Samba so he could transfer files from his Windows computer, I thought “Why not?” I was happy to discover that Samba is already installed in RC2 so all you need to do is configure it. After a few google searches I found an article about configuring Samba...

Oops. Why did I think not running as root would work when the other pistar-scripts need to? Hardening of the aptitudes, I guess. Running under sudo detects all. Thanks!

It found my Nextion 3.5” enhanced screen correctly, but that was all....did not list my modem or other info. Since it’s not a board from Florian, et. al., I assume that’s why. My specs, if needed: Jumbospot, early 2017 version, 14.7465 MHz, on Pi Zero W. FW HS_Hat V.1.4.14. — Pi-Star 3.4.16. — Dashb...

When PS 4 comes out, will it be installable via the Pi-Star system (e.g. pistar-update/upgrade) or should I get ready to DL and burn a new image? Thought I’d read some speculation that PS 4 would be upgradeable from within. Regardless of the answer, I’m happy that I decided to migrate to Pi-Star som...

You’ve pretty well covered the waterfront on things I would have thought of, John. The problems I was having were with Safari on an iPad, so I was just guessing about Firefox, though Firefox is the browser I use on both Linux and WIn10. Haven’t yet had the problem there. For what it’s worth, the pro...

You might have some success if you clear the cache on FireFox. It might be that FIreFox has cached the Dashboard page and is showing you the cached page rather than reconnecting to Pi-Star and reloading the dashboard. Once you clear the cache you may have to use the IP address to reconnect with Pi-S...

Walter, when you say you don’t get the full function, do you mean—for example—that the reboot and shutdown buttons don’t do anything? If that’s the case, it’s because connecting via the modem connection won’t work for those functions. I had to change over to USB for those to work. There’s supposed t...

There needs to be a space between the command and the target. Thus: cd<space>/tmp

Gary, not sure if this is the procedure you want, take with a grain of salt. I used it to get the entry “/dev/ttyNextionDriver” into the drop down menu on my config page. Another Forum user posted it some weeks ago. SSH rpi-rw (may not be necessary since the next command puts you temporarily in supe...
