Home automation using Raspberry pi

Former Member over 12 years ago

hi to all,

I want to make home automation using raspberry pi

I want to control, different instruments through monitor attached to the rasp pi.

My problem is, how to make a controlling screen? through which software?

how?

a good program to use is 'screen'.

to install:
apt-get install screen

I can't tell you the specifics of installing the software but you can research how to use this software.

another program to control screens in tightVNC. This will only work if you have a raspberry pi attached.

Hello Parag

For automation, have a look here: http://www.raspberrypi.org/phpBB3/viewforum.php?f=37

With regards to screens, as Fergus says you can use something like VNC if you want to view the pi remotely. Alternatively you could use an cheap composite screen from Amazon or ebay (around £20) if you wanted something direct to the Pi, or even a 16x2 or 20x4 LCD.
