Re: How to add wifi connections on headless bookworm (RPi4B)?
I just did a test that will hopefully shed some light on this and have a few comments that may help you be more successful on your next jaunt. My home network has the primary SSID and a guest network SSID. I have pre-defined .nmconnection files, one for each of them. Here are the steps I took, and t...

Re: How to add wifi connections on headless bookworm (RPi4B)?
That spoon thing was a bit unnecessary.... :cry: Indeed. Apologies (here) and an edit (there) are in order. I already set the connection to autoconnect inside nmtui, see screenshot. But since that did not work I asked for some overriding setting to explain why it did not in fact connect and send it...

Re: How to add wifi connections on headless bookworm (RPi4B)?
In the exact same utilities you mentioned above and have apparently used: nmcli and/or nmtui. Or, you can edit your .nmconnection file directly, of course.

Re: How to add wifi connections on headless bookworm (RPi4B)?
Going back to the start of the wifi setup: You can add any number of wifi connections through the nmtui command line utility and save the configurations as connection files. Since that is the case and it did not work for me to have two such connections available, is there some other service/setting...

Re: How to add wifi connections on headless bookworm (RPi4B)?
Or use a serial cable, such as this one: https://www.adafruit.com/product/954 Requires access to the Pi's gpio pins, and a system with USB to plug the other end into but works great and is network-independent. Another possibility is to use a service that puts up a WiFi hotspot on the Pi when it's bo...

Re: Bookworm and Bluepy
There are many posts in these forums regarding this issue since Bookworm was released in early October.

Re: Not going to buy a RPi5?
We're very used to not being thanked, but it gets a bit tedious sometimes. I thought the Pi was "interesting", but not very useful, until the Pi4 came out, largely due to the performance. I worked on much faster systems, and while the very personal nature of the Pi was sweet, they were a ...

Re: Pi can no longer ping gateway after setting static IP.
Perhaps the output from sudo journalctl -b | grep eth0 might reveal why your pi has two IP addresses assigned. As far as easily and correctly setting a static IP address, the best way, of course, is to assign the static IP address in your router. If there's a real technical reason that you can't do ...

Re: Bookworm on SSD suddenly running very slow - running fstrim fixed this
Linux definitely needs to tidy up the way provisioning mode is configured, its a mess. Would such a tidy provide Raspberry Pi Imager with more options and a way to save profiles then later apply them? One of the RP folks mentioned (in the bookworm beta forum, I think) that they are moving toward us...

Re: Bookworm on SSD suddenly running very slow - running fstrim fixed this
It might be that a script linked here does this always automatically as a systemd boot service, I haven't looked at it. At least on Bookworm and Bullseye, fstrim.timer is pre-enabled in the IMG by its placement in /etc/systemd/system/timers.target.wants. Disks that have trim enabled (either via the...

My conclusion from this, and my advice to others is : if you're using an SSD, especially to boot from, you need trim support enabled, go do it! But I also have ...

Do I understand you correctly that you want to set ipv4.ignore-auto-dns on the system with the bridge and have connecting clients be affected by that setting?

Re: Raspberry Pi 5 - can I use an SD card from Pi 4?
Without sarcasm, it will take me a day as there was so much custom stuff. A gentle suggestion: If there are more Pis in your future, you can reduce the time to build new disks by using sdm . While there's a small up-front learning curve, the payback can be HUGE: You can build a new disk in literall...

A good next step would be to install an unadulterated RasPiOS Lite with no MX. This would help you determine whether it's MX or hardware.

Thanks for the suggestion (I love your "presumably"). That returns exactly nothing, I suppose b/c the device itself is not being recognized so there is no interface to query, but not sure. And presumably you've verified that you haven't inadvertently disabled it in config.txt, /etc/modpro...
