Dendrobatus AzureusI have buildin bug hunting attributesCheck out the linked toot. The display of oosplash and soffice.bin is on the GPU of my SBC. I am logged in via ssh on another computer. I expected that when Midnight Commander invoked the soffice.bin program for pdf as default editor, it would do an X export to the remote desktop I logged in from since the switches are -Xv2Firefox did that gorgeously gkrellm does it well also.In this case I got the splash initially on my remote machine (so desktop of ssh originator) but the rest was shown on SBC native desktopThe Pi5 runs wayland, but that can't have anything to do with the error, since gkrellm & firefox spawn properly on the ssh originatorI will investigate this phenomenon further.

Dendrobatus AzureusThis photograph was composed less than 15 minutes ago to portray the heat sink which has now been installed on the Broadcom SOC integrated circuitIn a passive set up the heat sink does not do much, the temperature drops just with a couple of degrees and the order of two to 3° C With a fan spinning air on the heat sink the temperature drop is significantFrom my experience with electronics I know that heat sinks designed for Passive cooling have longer fins. For example the heat sink that I used to repair my National monochromatic television 12" when I was a kid, had very long fins and the heat sink was about as tall as my thumb {8.5cm}That analog Integrated Circuit controlled almost everything in the television, which made the circuit board quite Compact and easily maintainable Corrections made with the compliments of <a href="https://zia.io/users/AnachronistJohn" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@AnachronistJohn</a> I entangled the SOC with the WiFI IC since it's from Broadcom, which also makes network ICs<a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/Electronics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Electronics</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/SBC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SBC</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/ARM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ARM</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/Pie" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Pie</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/Raspberry" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Raspberry</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/GPIO" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GPIO</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/OpenSource" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OpenSource</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/Temperature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Temperature</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/Management" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Management</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/passive" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#passive</a>

Dendrobatus AzureusThe Broadcom Wi-Fi Integrated Circuit in the Raspberry Pi5, proves something that we have known from the ATX PSU {power supply units} for years. When such a system is powered off significant parts of it are still drawing current. In my experimentations with the system, where the power supply circuit runs in a similar fashion as the legacy ATX systems, I had powered it off after having run the SBC without active cooling. The Raspberry Pi5 is a robust machine, that can run without any active cooling. The temperature difference is on such a level that is totally within the tolerances of the Integrated Circuits in the SBC. Over here it operates @ 60+° C. The idle temperature is of course lower.With a soft power off, the Broadcom Wi-Fi IC still remains warm to the touch, even after a couple of hours. This is also the IC which receives an Aluminum cooling block when you buy a official Raspberry Pi case for your SBCThis temperature is a warning for you not to mess with components that need a total power down when you need to work on the machine.^Z<a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/SBC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SBC</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/ARM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ARM</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/Pie" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Pie</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/Raspberry" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Raspberry</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/GPIO" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GPIO</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/Broadcom" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Broadcom</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/WiFi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WiFi</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/Electronics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Electronics</a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/Heat" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Heat</a>
