Does anybody know where to look for documentation on the changes, or
general documentation for the bcm2836?

Re: [9fans] r-pi usbotg error

2015-02-18 Thread Joe Bowers
I'm not experiencing this issue (I've got a cheapo, 5+ year old USB
keyboard, of make and model that I don't recall, attached to a B+ that's
been running for a few days without an issue, plugged directly into the B+)
Could it be associated with particular keyboard models?

Re: [9fans] How do I get a CSR CA's like?

2015-05-26 Thread Joe Bowers
If it's just as simple, this might be the right place/time to use sha256
for this sort of thing.
