[Video] Raspberry Pi 5 not booting or going to diagnostic screen? Led Lights are Red, Green, Solid R
How can I reflash the firmware/bootloader to see if that's the issue? My other 5's work fine with same power supplies (tried multiple supplies). I removed all connections including the SD card to see if it entered diagnostic mode; it didn't. Here's a video of the status LEDs. Led Status Lights do not match anything on the stickied thread in the Pi troubleshoot forums.

RPI pico code breaks when I delete a comment
I have written code for my pico that allows a multiplexing 4x7 segment display i made to run on its own thread. Initially the code was not working so i wrote some test code which i then commented out.
I got the main program to work but when I delete the comment the code stops working. After some troubleshooting ive determined thread is likely dying from some sort of memory issue and running collect() in the loop fixes this. Here is the code in its current state. I would love some help with why this happens and ideally a good method of managing memory
import machine, utime, _thread
from gc import collect, mem_free
class Display:
def __init__(self, seg_pins, cathode_pins):
self.leds = [machine.Pin(pin, machine.Pin.OUT) for pin in seg_pins]
self.cathodes = [machine.Pin(pin, machine.Pin.OUT) for pin in cathode_pins]
def display_digit(self, digit):
self.outputs = {
'0' : [1,1,1,1,1,1,0],
'1' : [0,1,1,0,0,0,0],
'2' : [1,1,0,1,1,0,1],
'3' : [1,1,1,1,0,0,1],
'4' : [0,1,1,0,0,1,1],
'5' : [1,0,1,1,0,1,1],
'6' : [1,0,1,1,1,1,1],
'7' : [1,1,1,0,0,0,0],
'8' : [1,1,1,1,1,1,1],
'9' : [1,1,1,1,0,1,1],
'none': [0,0,0,0,0,0,0]
}
for i in range(len(self.leds)):
self.leds[i].value(self.outputs[digit][i])
def display_number(self, number):
digits = list(str(number))
utime.sleep(0.00)
for i in range(len(digits)):
self.display_digit(digits[i])
self.cathodes[i].value(1)
utime.sleep(0.002)
self.cathodes[i].value(0)
self.display_digit("none")
display_output = 1234
seg_pins = [20, 19, 26, 27, 28, 22, 21]
cathode_pins = [15, 14, 12, 13]
display1 = Display(seg_pins, cathode_pins)
def persistant_display():
utime.sleep(0.2)
global display_output
while True:
display1.display_number(display_output)
collect()
_thread.start_new_thread(persistant_display, ())
utime.sleep(0.2)
while True:
utime.sleep(1)
display_output+=1

Raspberry Pi 4 Model B (I2C Range)
I'm trying to connect 125 units of ATTiny85 and I am not sure if it works within the available I2C address.
Where can I check the starting address and the end address?
I wanted to know if it will fit all of it.
If it doesnt start at address 0 or 1, what address that it starts?
Or is there anyway I can change the pre-reserved starting address? maybe change some config?

GPIO BUSY on Raspberry pi 3b+
I have written a code that moves a robot car with arrow keys and takes a picture on every key press. For controlling the robot car motors, I have a seperate file where I use the Motor function from gpio zero and assign the pins and define the directions (left, right, forward, backward). However, when I run my code for controlling the car and taking pictures I immediately get the error stated in the title. I have searched online a bit but found nothing useful.
I'm suspecting its because I have the motor function defined on a seperate file which is then called to my main file.
I'm running 64 bit bookworm os.

Urgent - Canāt get raspberry pi 4 to run a simple script on startup
Iāve tried every single tutorial and forum post I could find to get it to just run a small script that Iāve written that launches a Processing sketch file.
- The script is set to be executable
- The path is /home/notions/startup.sh
What Iāve tried already
- Editing rc.local
- Editing .bashrc (this works but I have to manual open the terminal first
- Iāve tried autostarting the terminal with @lxterminal in the autostart file
- Tried editing crontab -e
- Tried systemd
No matter what I try, whenever I reboot the Pi it just wonāt autostart anything.
Any advice or help would be hugely appreciated.
Iām under time pressure for a project

The challenge is measuring precisely a star-like shape using a drone camera, it must be more then 1,2 meters away from the ground.
We are thinking of using rasp pico but we are struggling to find a way to get the scale of the picture, so we can calculate the area.

Cannot flash UF2 on Linux but on Windows
Hello,
I have a weird problem and do not know what to do.
I have two Pi Pico Ws and I want to just flash an example UF2 file onto them. If I use my Windows PC, I can flash a blink.uf2 file and everything works. When I try to use my Linux machine, I cannot get the files to load properly (same UF2 file). What I do:
lsblk
sudo mount /dev/{thepicodev} /mnt
sudo cp ~/file.uf2 /mnt
Then... nothing happens. If I umount still nothing happens. However, lsblk still shows the pico.
When I try to use picotool:
ā¶ sudo ./picotool load ~/Downloads/working_blink.uf2 Loading into Flash: [ ] 1% ERROR: The RP2040 device returned an error: <unknown>I am running Arch (btw) but I have no idea why it doesn't work. Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks a lot and have a nice day š

Resetting the password for a user if we don't know changed password
How can we reset the password or create new user on RPi and switch to it?
I'm trying to help someone with their RPi issue, they got a ready project from someone else. They have custom user prototype and the password to this user is unknown.
I'm trying to set up VNC connection on LAN network from their laptop to their RPi but we don't have the password for the user.
Is there an easier way to solve this? Like creating a new user from the existing user and logging in using the new user? Or are we going to have to reinstall the whole system if they won't be able to contact the previous owner and get the password?

Creating a heated climate controlled box
I do ant keeping and need to keep my ant testubes at consistent warm temperatures.
I'm not sure how the 5v pins work on the raspi and how many 5v components I can attach if someone can point me in the right direction. I've not have much luck doing my own research.
Let me know if this reddit post is viewable with its links detailing the parts I'm ordering.
