USB ports freezing on Raspberry Pi

Forums

Hi there, hope you can help me.

Raspberry Pi 3 Model B v1.2

All new install, Debian core, rpi3 version of install 

I use VirtualHere on Debian, and that is all that is installed, and after time the USB ports seem to freeze and don’t release items.

A reboot fixes things but is not ideal.

Any ideas what might cause that?

Server find all clients dynamically?

Forums

I was reading through the documentation, and couldn’t find any reference to a server finding all clients on the network. 

I see that bonjour is setup on the server to broadcast out to clients, but not the other way around.

From the server side, I see that reverse connection is a new feature. It allows the server to connect to static ips (which is great), but didn’t notice a way to have the server find all current clients on the network.

Is there a built in way to find all clients dynamically from the server and I just missed it in the documentation?

Server Not Retaining Dongle Nicknames After Reboot

Forums

Hi,

I'm having an issue with VirtualHere: the server doesn't retain the nicknames assigned to the dongles after a reboot. In the config.ini file, I see the string DeviceNicknames=PROG 1,0529,0003,12,PROG 2,0529,0001,16,PROG 3,0529,0001,17..., but it seems that it's not being loaded correctly by the program. Does anyone know why this might be happening or how to fix it?

Thanks!

Optimized version for Rasp Pi zero 2 w 32-bit

Forums

The Raspberry Pi zero 2 w does a 64-bit Cortex-A53, like the Pi3, but it is suggested to run the 32 bit version of their OS on it due to very low RAM availability.

 

I see that there is a VirtualHere USB Server Optimized for Pi3 and Pi3B+ (Cortex-A53 hardware floating with NEON SIMD ARM8 instruction support) listed. Would that be the version that would work on the 02w? The proc name is right, but the "neon simd arm8" part I don't know about. 


 

Mac Client (Sonoma 14.5), Sharing USB Bluetooth Dongle

Forums

Hi, 
 

I am trying to share my bluetooth dongle to my mac running sonoma 14.5. I was able to get Sonoma to recognize the external USB dongle and use it over the internal one when directly plugged into the mac by following these instructions: https://dongle.hideez.com/how-to-use-hideez-bluetooth-dongle-on-macos/s…

VH Android Server not recognizing USB 2.4Ghz Mouse Dongle

Forums

Hi,
I bought the Android server and I'm pretty sure I tested the device before and it was working, but now the device is not being recognized by the VirtualHere Android server.
I tried to uninstall the app and clean caches and data, but this specific 2.4 GHz dongle is not getting recognized.
I tried many others and had no problem with any of them, but this one is not working. I'm not getting the message to "Allow VirtualHere USB access..." for this particular device...
I tested this same dongle on a trial VirtualHere Windows server and it worked without a problem. 

VH Client stops reconnecting to the server

Forums

Hello,
VH CloudHub 4.6.5
VH Client 5.6.4 works as a service in Win2019
 

Client stops reconnecting to the server
If a client loses connection with the server for a long time (for example, 10 minutes), then automatically he will never be able to reconnect. As soon as you start the GUI, the connection is restored.
If you leave the GUI open, then after a long loss of connection we can see that the inscription “Connecting to USB server...” after a while just freezes and remains.

When we touch the GUI, an event appears

Requesting assistance with Windows based docker image for VH Client!

Forums

Hey guys, I need to build a docker image based on FROM mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/framework/sdk:4.8.1

I know you guys have an alpine image, so I thought the best way to start would be to translate it to Windows.  ChatGPT gave me this after some finagling.  Clearly, the bits involving the Linux kernel don't belong here.  I'm wondering if you could review what needs to change here to make everything work. Of course, if I can get it working, the image would be on Docker hub for public consumption.
