Raspberry pi troubleshooting

If you run into something that might help others, add it here!

• Are you using the Raspbian Raspberry Pi image? The soft-floating-point wheezy is not compatible with openFrameworks. ArchLinux support is planned, but not currently supported.
• Are you giving your RPI enough power? Many otherwise inexplicable RPI problems seem to be the result of inadequate power. See here for more for information on Power Supply Problems
• Are you running into problems with a USB device? Please reference the list of Verified Peripherals.
• If your USB device isn't listed and is failing please follow these steps to gather useful log information from the pi:

0. rm /var/log/kern.log /var/log/kern.log.1 /var/log/kern.log.*.gz
1. shutdown -r now
2. run your oF App
3. lsusb -v | grep -iP "Transfer Type.*(Interrupt|Isochronous)" | wc -l
4. cat /var/log/kern.log | grep -iP "fail|warn|error" | perl -p -e 's/^[^]\n]*]//g;s/(warn_alloc_failed: )[0-9]+/$1/g' | sort -u;
5. dmesg
6. copy and paste the output to a gist
