Thanks for an execllent episode and for making this more widely known, I followed Rob’s (Tech Craft) / Ben Hardill’s instructions nearly a year ago and have been using a RPi-4B in an ArgonOne case as my travelling developer setup. I don’t have (or want) and Windows or Mac Laptop, but I do love my iPad. This solution filled a critical missing link for a dev Linux environment while traveling via air/train or at a library or literally anywhere, and I can have a full Linux environment running Jupyter Notebook, Python, MySQL, Docker, etc. without internet. I SSH into the RPi using Shelly, (on the App Store) and can pick up where I left off before boarding my flight.
Hey! Hope this finds you well after two years of gap. Can guide me to do the same ? Actually can’t find any good tutorial regarding that and I’m senior secondary student trying to learn linux and porgramming.
@@tusharbhardwaj7511 Hi and thanks for pinging me, and Good for You for wanting to learn Linux. It’s an excellent skill that most people are frightened to learn! But if you know Linux you’ll be far ahead of even old-timers! It’s been quite a while since I did this, but this is also how I started learning Linux. I will say that if it’s strictly Linux you’re interested in learning, you can definitely speed things up but creating a free user account with any of the cloud providers, and create a virtual machine, where you can essentially have a Linux environment to play in. A few years ago I was still new with Linux and didn’t own my own computer, so the Raspberry Pi was all I had, besides my laptop.

@1:55 interesting. I assumed this entire time networking wasn’t possible through micro-USB and you just proved me wrong! btw - that is the same exact video that inspired me to want to get a Pi in 2020! now I can’t wait to try it out w my Pi Zero 2W!
Hi, I followed this guide to make my Pi Zero 2 W work on a Tab S7, but I can't connect via ssh nor vnc to the Pi. What can I do to make it work? Thank you!
either a usb c cable or a custom 3d printed case for this use case that keeps the pi rigid might be better because one orientation is in the way of your hands and possible hand gestures on the ipad and the other orientation won’t lay it flat. i personally would prefer a 1 ft cable to prevent any potential physical damage to the tablet’s port with any slip of the tablet,
When the Pi was in front of the screen I didn’t find it got in my way. Still plenty of room to swipe in from the edge. Some sort of 3D printed case that attaches to the rear of the iPad would be safer. 👍🏻
I did a similar thing with an Apple USB Camera adapter, but opted for the Pi Zero 2W in Access Point mode instead, so the Pi can be in a pocket, running on a high capacity and high current battery. Double the RAM and the Z2W would be awesome, not just good.
I’ve been trying to use VNC via ad-hoc. I can get my pi4 to start up an ad-hoc connection using the onboard wireless but haven’t had any success connecting with VNC. I’ve only been able to use VNC if my Ipad and pi4 are on the same Wi-Fi network either my home network or a hotspot from my iPhone. Could you help me out?
not 100% sure if this applies to your config but for mouse lag on regular RaspberryPi OS adding: usbhid.mousepoll=8 to the end of the file /boot/cmdline.txt and rebooting should fix the lag.
Excellent!!! It seems you're using VNC like a computer using virtual machine with persistence. Could you you use an OTG cable to power the tablet and Pi, so as to not excessively drain the table's battery?

I think it should work the same as the Pi 4 does with a cable
Con Ubuntu estaria muy interesante
Can this be done on Ubuntu?
Most likely although you may have to work out how to adapt the tutorial for Ubuntu
@@leepspvideo I have followed tech crafts guide and I cannot for the life of me got it to work lol, But thanks to you I have the OG Raspian running on this.
I have a follow up question. Would a micro usb to usb type c cable work to power this pi?
You can do the Same with a Android Phone!
@@ManuelPinner have you seen a guide or video I can view / watch? I would be interested in trying it
You can also install Linux on Android

@@leepspvideo Agreed! I just got out of the apple ecosystem because I paid too much for a tablet that wouldn't do the things I wanted.
This isn't linux on an ipad...
@@yaybrianna it definitely is. Not the way you want it to be though.
This is as well

@@leepspvideo Connecting to a linux host from an ipad is not linux on the ipad. I also don't agree that running linux in VM also isn't running linux on an ipad.
@@yaybrianna 😀

Second lol
it's my first time I watch a video and be the 1st lol 😂
This is misleading.. this is NOT Linux *ON* the iPad.. this is a Raspberry Pi using the iPad as a screen.
It’s displayed on the iPad, powered by the iPad & controlled by the touchscreen. It is Linux on the iPad.
It’s not Linux installed on the iPad.
Thank you!
Does it work with RPI Zero WH?
Yes
@@leepspvideo Awesome! Thank you very much ❤️
