Cookbook of Raspberry Pi Commands

I am going to try to summarize most of my other pages for controlling setting up the raspberry Pi. We will see how it goes.

This is an article started by Russ Hensel, see "http://www.opencircuits.com/index.php?title=Russ_hensel#About My Articles" About My Articles for a bit of info. The page is only partly finished.Link title

Basic Config

Also stuff in GUI

sudo raspi-config  

Update

Commands like: not sure about the kernel one

sudo apt-get update  
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install raspberrypi-kernel
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

WiFi

Edit this:

     sudo leafpad /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf

Find contents like:

ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=netdev
update_config=1
country=US

network={
	ssid="upstairs"
	key_mgmt=NONE
}

network={
	ssid="belkin.d3c"
	psk="secret"
	key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
}

another file

     sudo leafpad  /etc/network/interfaces

Find contents like:

# interfaces(5) file used by ifup(8) and ifdown(8)

# Please note that this file is written to be used with dhcpcd
# For static IP, consult /etc/dhcpcd.conf and 'man dhcpcd.conf'

# Include files from /etc/network/interfaces.d:
source-directory /etc/network/interfaces.d

get your ip address

     ifconfig

Linux Reminders

sudo chmod +x /home/pi/pi3.sh    # make executable 

mkdir make directory
rmdir – Remove Directories

[edit] Files
rm – Remove Files

mv – Move Files
~ home directory
./ current directory
../ parent directory
ls list files, but may miss hidden ones then ???
cd
chmod +x filename +x make executable
ps -e what is running ( -e all users?? without just current )
top info on running processes in a nano like window exit with ctrl c
kill end a process using pid from above

cp copy files
code
