Raspberry Pi B 2014-01-07 Raspbian fully up to date. Installed and configured motion for surveillance. It works just fine and creates.avi files and.jpeg. Installed Mplayer trying to run it from desktop was not successful. I did try to do a command line by executing sudo mplayer /path/to/file/video.

Your Raspberry Pi has lots of applications already installed, like Minecraft, Mathematica, and the browser. Download film narnia 1 subtitle indonesia 3gp full. And there are a lot of 'libraries'. Linux programmers don't like writing code when they can use code that other people have already written and tested, so there are lots and lots of 'libraries' that have been written and shared by applications. Unless you are going to develop your own applications, you probably don't need to worry about these. But what you probably do want to know is 'what is installed on my Raspberry Pi' and 'what else can I install'.

Obviously, you can find out what is there by looking at what is in the Menu, under the headings of 'Programming', 'Internet', 'Games', and 'Accessories'. You can find out what else is there by running the following command in a terminal window: dpkg --get-selections The list will probably scroll off the screen, and most of it is unlikely to mean anything to you! Don't worry - there's more. The has created the 'Pi Store', similar to the Play Store or App Store on your phone. You'll find it under the Internet Menu when you're running the GUI on the Raspberry Pi. There are a few applications that have been written by the Raspberry Pi community, but this is only a really small selection of what is available.

There are two ways to install more applications, or 'packages' as they are called in the Linux world. One is via the command line ('apt-get', in a terminal window), while the other has a user interface.

We're going to do the latter using 'synaptic'. First, we're going to have to install 'synaptic'. Open a terminal window and type the following: sudo apt-get install synaptic Answer 'yes' to any questions that are asked during installation. You need to be in the Desktop mode on your Raspberry Pi.

If it is not started, start it with 'startx' in the terminal. Synaptic is started from the Preferences menu: You will be prompted for a password as Synaptic needs to run as the 'root' user 'pi'. The default password is usually 'raspberry': You'll see a list of packages on your Raspberry Pi that can be installed, but first we need to update the list of packages to the latest ones.

To do this, choose 'Reload Package Information' from the Edit menu, or press 'Ctrl+R': This may take some time, so be patient. The packages are split into sections, starting 'Amateur Radio', 'Base System' etc.: While you are there, you might as well upgrade what can be upgraded to the latest version, by clicking on 'Mark All Upgrades': The upgradable packages will be listed. Just press the 'Mark' button to mark them for upgrade; note that the upgrade is not done right away: Now comes the interesting part! You can scroll through the sections on the left looking for interesting packages to install.
