Now I understand.              When I set up a Pi as some sort of server, I always get a nice big power       supply. And I've had the problem with USB devices pulling too much power       before.              But, ya, I never really did the research on that. I just assumed that the Pi       couldn't handle it and did an "end run" around the problem.                     ... Women who wear mini-skirts sure are cheeky folk.       ___ MultiMail/Linux v0.52              --- Mystic BBS/QWK v1.12 A49 2023/04/30 (Windows/64)        * Origin: JoesBBS.Com, Telnet:23 SSH:22 HTTP:80 (1:342/201)       SEEN-BY: 90/1 105/81 106/201 128/260 129/305 135/220 225 153/7715       SEEN-BY: 218/700 226/30 227/114 229/110 111 112 113 200 206 300 317       SEEN-BY: 229/400 426 428 470 550 616 664 700 266/512 282/1038 291/111       SEEN-BY: 292/854 320/219 322/757 342/200 201 396/45 460/58 633/280       SEEN-BY: 712/848 5020/400 5075/35       PATH: 342/201 200 229/426           |
