with /boot/cmdline.txt add at end of first line " ip=192.168.1.102" ( without the " ) helps for the headless connection.
++ ok, the automount of the USB stick works ( again )
pls find it under /media/pi/STICKNAME/
in desktop pls use
[mouse right click]
Desktop Preferences / Desktop Icons / (enable) show connected volumes on the desktop
menu line top right is a eject drive safely icon
__my default setup:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo raspi-config expand file system / name RPI / timezone /
sudo apt-get install -y mc xrdp scrot lsb-release wcd samba samba-common-bin htop ethtool autocutsel
prior audio USB sound card play see here
now need to test my USB soundcard + headset if the desktop operation / selection is possible now.
but first must use the powered USB hub.
select the soundcard from desktop
as usual i wanted to install audacity, but because of connection problems that did not work at first.
later try again, install audacity and test record and play: ok
save/export as a test.wav file under /home/pi/Music/
and try from terminal a simple aplay test.wav what says "playing" but not give sound.
from forum comes the info about a option for better audio
just read about an other linux variant able to run on RPI2
test and download
now just give the links here ( for me ) to check on it later.
