If you see any other numbers then please let me know and I can update this page. If the "Hardware Revision Code" is 3 or lower you have a Revisions 1 board, 4 to 6 then you have a Revision 2 board, if it is 13 or 14 then you have a Revision 2 board with 512Mb of RAM. However the technical way to which revision you have is to perform the following command from a terminal session: cat /proc/cpuinfo If it has holes for screws to mount the board then it is a Revision 2 board, no holes means Revision 1. The quick and simple way to tell is by looking at the board. There are two revisions of the Raspberry Pi, so far. So from here on, I am talking about the Model B. The Model A has no ethernet connection and is not in full production yet. Most people own a Model B, as this has an ethernet connection. Oh and yes, this did work! Which Pi have I?įirstly it is important to note that there are now two major Raspberry Pi models, there is Model A and Model B. exit nano and save your changes: Ctrl+X, Y, Enter.find the line with "hdmi_drive" in it and uncomment it, so you have "hdmi_drive=2".This was when we connected the Raspberry Pi up to our Sony television. The decision to leave a clock off was down to cost, hence it is assumed that if there is no network you will set the date/time manually.
Date and Timeĭo plug a network cable in with internet access as the Pi uses this to get the current date/time. It is always recommended that you change default passwords to something else.Īfter logging in the command startx will load the GUI. The default login credentials are as follows: This is because on the first boot you will set some options, so a clean shutdown is best. One tip that I missed is that when you first use your Raspberry Pi it is strongly recommended that you issue "sudo halt" when you have finished to turn it off rather than just pulling the power out. Please note that these are really just rough notes, made mostly for me but happy to share. Right, here goes some comments and stuff so far.
