Re: Configuration page and ColorCode=0

In configure.php, change: // Set MMDVMHost DMR Colour Code if (empty($_POST['dmrColorCode']) != TRUE ) { $configmmdvm['DMR']['ColorCode'] = escapeshellcmd($_POST['dmrColorCode']); } to: // Set MMDVMHost DMR Colour Code if (isset($_POST['dmrColorCode'])) { $configmmdvm['DMR']['ColorCode'] = (int)$_PO...

Re: Can I run Pi-Star without Wi-Fi?

Yes, you can run ethernet only, without wifi. Generally, the hotspot should connect to ethernet as its first choice, and basically ignore the wifi thereafter, assuming an ethernet connection is valid/viable at bootup. Things can get messed up after that if that connection window is missed. Have you ...

Re: 4.3.0 Beta feedback

Can the 4.3 version be burned to a USB drive and then used as a boot drive on a pi? Not sure, never been interested in doing so. SD cards are become harder to come by, especially in small sizes: a 32gb USB drive can be had for the same price as an 8gb SD card, for instance. USB's are faster, way fa...

Re: 4.2.0 Beta feedback

Wifi is failing I think due to the WiFi Regulatory Domain (Country Code) : drop-down being empty for me.... This is probably because I'm trying to cheat and keep using the old network manager, and not (yet) move to NetworkManager, I may well just not get away with that :( The wireless-regdb package...

Re: NEXTION DRIVER

The Nextion driver may be in place but the MMDVM configuration changes are not. If you rebuild/refresh a system using a saved configuration that does not have the necessary sections in the MMDVM ini file, then the only way to get those sections added is editing the ini file by hand *or* rerun the Ne...

Re: Not able to configure eth0 and wlan0 simultaneously

In simple terms, you can be connected to both eth0 and wlan0 simultaneously but only one of them will be used in any given situation - the system will not automatically switch ("on the fly") between the two if one should disconnect or traffic gets interrupted while in operation. Although t...

Re: Another "New Router/Internet" issue!

You drop the new/revised wpa_supplicant.conf file in the boot directory of the Pi-Star Image SD card while it's mounted on your Windows machine (typically, it's the only directory you can get to via Windows). Remove the card and put it in your Pi and boot and you should be good to go. Alternately, y...
