Error installing Pico-SDK
I'm trying to install Pico-SDK using the following commands:
Install Pico-SDK in Your OS(like Raspberry Pi OS).
wget https://github.com/raspberrypi/pico-setup/blob/master/pico_setup.sh -O pico_setup.sh
chmod a+x pico_setup.sh
./pico_setup.sh
The first two commands (wget and chmod) seem to run fine. However, the /pico_setup.sh fails.
/pico_setup.sh is in the current folder where I ran the command. What do I need to do in order to run that?
I'm running on Ubuntu 22.04. It's a brand new VirtualBox server. The only items I installed previously were Git and Arduino IDE 2.1.1.

Use Pi3 to power electronics from a Greeting Card
I have the guts from a greeting card that was originally powered by two CR2032 cells. After some investigation it appears each cell powers the speaker and motor separately, so they only need 3v each. I tested this by removing both cells, then activating each feature one by one.
I'm curious if I can use the 3.3v on the Pi3 to power one or both of those features through python. I'd be adding a button for control to turn it off and on. Realistically I think it would be easier to desolder the motor leads and wire to the Pi directly, but the music portion has a chip to play a specific tune, as well as an external speaker. If it is indeed possible to power this from the Pi, how should I connect it up?
2 white wires go to the speaker
Red/Black to got the motor
The switch is in the corner and is constantly on unless a piece of paper (tab from the card) breaks the connection.

Digital signage with non local access & preferably auto update via a file manager/email/ Gdrive
Hey, I have been tasked with sorting a digital sign for sponsors. Having used Pi's several times, I know you can do this with them, however I have a few caveats.
Use case: Digital Signage
Use load: 4 images maximum or a mp4 of said images with controlled transitions.
Set up: The pi will be permanently to a TV/ digital projector to loop the images/video.
Access: I want this all to be done, preferably, from the comfort of my own home & for free/ no subscription or one off payments to a software. I'd love to have it so that I can upload to a file manager online ie google drive and the pi just reboot and pull the images each time it detects a change in said file system. Or if I email it across the the pi, each email same again. Reboot, pull the new files.
Personal Thoughts:: I've been googling around for two daysIsh and found, but I don't think that can be access off site. Also saw Slidesho for Android, which could work if I loaded Android onto a Pi.
Any thoughts/ help would be warmly welcome. Thanks

Help Article I wrote for Noobs
I wrote an article for the Noobs starting with the Raspberry Pi 5 because I felt like when I first started, there was like zero documentation for certain apps not working. So if I can solve them I can provide the solutions in an article for noobs while also adding personality unlike most help articles and also explaining stuff to the reader so they understand why certain things are done. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ZVjokHRHGz0HpAggySH4Y4LdddpFmQfnIv0Yo1UvjlM/edit

Rasp Pi 3b as Wirless USB Hub
Hello I recently followed this tutorial to turn a Raspberry Pi 0 into a wireless USB device that I used to send .STL files to my 3d printer wirelessly.
https://www.reddit.com/r/ElegooMars/comments/jxhyi3/using_a_pi_zero_w_as_a_smart_usb_flash_drive_for/
It worked for the Pi 0 but then suddenly I kept getting error messages on the Printer due to some sort of failed communication.
I then decided to try to do it with a Pi 3b. I was able to successfully create the wireless folder that I can put files into remotely but when I plug the Pi into any device via the USB port nothing is coming up. Is their something I need to do different with the Pi 3b versus the 0 in the instructions?

Raspberry Pi4 drops WLAN connection when downloads are running.
My raspi4 drops its WLAN connection when I use my external ALFA USB adapter for downloads.
I use the original power supply and an USB alfa adapter with raspap as a wireless repeater.
My pi is overclocked. Is this a power issue? How can I fix it? I will disable the overclock right now and try again. Is there any other solution?
Thank you in advance.

How to Allocate RAM to the GPU on the Raspberry Pi 5? (SOLVED)
The title basically sums up my question, but Iām just wondering how to do it. As far as I can tell there is no obvious way to do it. With past Raspberry Piās you could either edit the config.txt file and change gpu_mem or go to the Raspi-Config screen and fichan free it there. There doesnāt seem to be either of those options on Raspberry Pi OS Bookworm. Is this because of the OS, which canāt be changed to previous OSās, or is it because of the Raspberry Pi 5? This is just super confusing!

pico w/ Lipo shim power issues - no power at vbus pin
Hi all. Iāve added a lipo shin to my pico but Iām having power problems with it, basically it wonāt power the pico as it should, details are below:
The power out of the lipo connector is good (at source)
Voltage at the 3v3en pin is good, this goes on and off with the button on the front of the shim.
If I bridge power from the +ive on the back of the plug to the VBUS pin we get power and everything works as it should.
However if I bridge from the 3v3en pin (same voltage) then the pico still wonāt power on
If I donāt bridge anything then thereās still power to the 3v3en pin but nothing to the vbus pin
Iāve checked all soldered joints and I canāt see any issues. Does anyone have any ideas which pins I should check in particular or anything further I could do to trouble shoot?

my raspberry pi5 is not compatible to the touch screen I bought.
I got a CX070PI-A IPS 7-inch screen and a Rpi 5. The screen itself works but not the touch screen. However, when I connect the touch screen port from my screen to my normal pc, then it does work so its not the screen but the software of the Rpi. I checked Github and saw a few issues in the past with update 5622, that I installed but no change. I switched back from wayland to X11 but that also did not work and I disabled the entire KMS drivers that also didnt work. ANy tips?

Voltage Divider
Hey Folks,
trying to copy parts of the kinowheels.com project and attach it to a pico instead of an Arduino mega.
So far i replicated just one of the voltage divider and attached only one of the outs of the encoder to my breadboard. Yet I did not added the pico as i measured ~5V (encoder HIGH) on the tap where it should be connected.
Is this due to not having a load (no pico, just volt meter) attached?
When i add another 20kOhms between tap & ground i get desirable 2.5V, but i don't know if i'm doing it right.
Appreciate any help!

Using tft display with raspberry pi?
Hey, i followed this youtube tutorial to get the display working with raspberry pi 3b:
https://youtu.be/I41wIyXG8Bc?si=iEwmHAivJOat1iiH
Now I have two problems and dont know how to fix them:
First the display shows wrong colors, for example blue instead of red and orange instead of blue.
The format of the picture is also wrong, the picture does not Fill the full display.
I Tried to Rotate the picture using "display_rotate=1" but it rotated the picture without increasing the used space.
Can someone help?
