Update: The new Raspbian image supports this out of the box now. The below instructions should no longer be necessary
A newer version of the Raspberry PI Model B has been release a few days ago, with 512mb of RAM (as opposed to 256MB). Using Raspbian as your OS, you will need to update the RaspberryPI's boot firmware in order to take advantage of the new memory upgrade. To determine how much RAM your OS is currently seeing, you can do "free -h" at the prompt.
All the steps below are using SSH, as I don't use the GUI on my RPi.
Login to your RaspberryPI through SSH. Default credentials are:
Username: pi
Password: raspberry
sudo -i
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
Note: Hexxeh's rpi-update script is currently broken, so we'll need to do this manually.
In /boot/, download (and overwrite if already exists) all files from here:
Hexxeh's Rpi-Update script has now been updated, so you can follow the following steps:
rm -rf /boot/*.elf /boot/*.bin /boot/*.img
apt-get install git
apt-get install ca-certificates
wget http://goo.gl/1BOfJ -O /usr/bin/rpi-update && sudo chmod +x /usr/bin/rpi-update
On the RaspberryPI, GPU (video) and system memory are shared. That means if your RPi has 512mb of RAM, some of that RAM will be reserved to use as video memory. Since my RPi doesn't use the GUI, I set my GPU memory to be 16MB. If you are using a GUI, you may want to go with 64, 128, or even 256MB of GPU ram.
Edit /boot/config.txt and add the following line at the bottom of the file:
At this point, you can reboot. Running "free -h" again should give you the updated memory configuration!

Follow Me:
I tried this but I am not seeing any difference in my free -h command. Always getting 121m regardless of what I choose
Are you sure you have the 512MB Model? When did you get your RaspberryPI?
To make sure, you can follow the instructions here: http://www.raspberrypi-spy.co.uk/2012/09/checking-your-raspberry-pi-board-version/
I don't have my RPi now, so I don't know for sure, but your revision number should be something like "10000f"
You can also check the chip's model number on the CPU itself. if its got K4P2G324 its a 256MB Pi, if its got K4P4G324 its a 512MB Pi.
brilliant post but i have 1 point
If I set GPU to 16 i get No HDMI display even from boot up.
remote putty and vncserver consoles still work normally.
checking the memory using cat/proc/meminfo|grep Mem
produced this
cat /proc/meminfo |grep Mem
MemTotal: 497764 kB
MemFree: 366276 kB
(My HDMI no longer produce any display with 16mb)
I just used nano to amend the config.txt file this time
meminfo now produces
cat /proc/meminfo |grep Mem
MemTotal: 481508 kB
MemFree: 342180 kB
and HDMI works fine again
Also Setting 24 allowed HDMI to work and seems to be the min setting if you want a display to work.
Hi John! Great point!
I've updated the article to reflect that. Thank You!
I've also updated the steps involved, since the rpi-update script has been updated.
I'm getting start.elf is missing when I run rpi-update
I have had a problem when using wget to grab the script and subsequently had trouble when running it. I checked the code and instead it has some HTML and some other code. So I replaced the script source in the rpi-update file and successfully ran the script.
From the following link I got a suggestion just to do a;
$ touch /boot/start.elf
in the meantime, the shortest workaround is just to
touch /boot/start.elf
Got the following change in behavior when I used the guidance.
root@raspberrypi:~# /usr/bin/rpi-update
Raspberry Pi firmware updater by Hexxeh, enhanced by AndrewS
Performing self-update
/boot/start.elf doesn't exist.
root@raspberrypi:~# touch /boot/start.elf
root@raspberrypi:~# /usr/bin/rpi-update
Raspberry Pi firmware updater by Hexxeh, enhanced by AndrewS
Performing self-update
ARM/GPU split is now defined in /boot/config.txt using the gpu_mem option!
We're running for the first time
Setting up firmware (this will take a few minutes)
Using HardFP libraries
If no errors appeared, your firmware was successfully setup
A reboot is needed to activate the new firmware
Then after my reboot it all has seemed to work;
pi@raspberrypi ~ $ free -h
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 438M 52M 385M 0B 8.0M 25M
-/+ buffers/cache: 19M 418M
Swap: 99M 0B 99M
pi@raspberrypi ~ $
Pingback: Unlocking 512 MB « My Raspberry Pi and I
Thank you for this post! I was worried that my RPi was only showing 224MB, (32MB Video), and after following your instructions, I now have the full 512MB. I was having near total lock-up trying to run Glassfish, but now it's great!

We had the pleasure of interviewing Bex Glover, a graphic designer, artist & illustrator living and working in Bristol, UK.
How long have you been in design/illustration?
10 years
Do your personal projects differ from your professional work? If yes, how so?
Yes to some degree, my personal work is often more hand rendered / painting based -using markers and spray paint, and it tends to have a more abstract aesthetic. I like to emulate the hand rendered feel in my digital illustrative work too, but the style and subject matter will be dictated by the requirements of the brief. Some can be cleaner cut, simple, and digital in style, others more urban and freestyle. It's great when you get projects where the client wants to do something based on your personal work –that's often the more fun, creative stuff.

The Guidence Counselor is horrible, the teachers are horrible. If i would have know this school was this horrible, i wouldnt even enroll my child into this school. Its not the child fault why its so bad it the staff they dont care if kids get bully. Its like they only care about getting a check. Teachers should have a dress code to, because some of the staff look like they be walking on brooks rd. I dont feel like my child is in a safe enviorment at this school.. i go to work and worry what going to happen to child today (thats a bad feeling). im debating about home schooling my child . I feel i can give my child a better education then this school can. all i can say is PLEASE DONT ENROLL YOUR CHILD HERE PLEASE DONT... i wish someone would have told me....

Denver has wonderful programs for learning. The students have improved as far as I can see.
The school is 'out of control.' Constant fights, low teacher morale, low student morale, unapproachable administrator.

We've seen a lot of motorized bicycles over the years, but none look quite like the YikeBike. It looks like a miniature nineteenth century Penny Farthing bike that has no pedals and a backwards handle bar. But once you go beyond the looks of the YikeBike, the engineering is pretty interesting.
The YikeBike can be folded up to the size of a suitcase, it can be had in various composite materials including carbon fiber, and it is electrically powered. It even captures energy via regenerative braking. The downside? It only goes 12 miles per hour, and it could cost as much as $3,800. Oh, and it's impossible to look cool while riding a YikeBike.
Translogic's Bradley Hasemeyer traveled to England to try the YikeBike For himself, and the five-minute video is available after the jump. Yes, it looks awkward, but we'd be happy to give it a go ourselves.

Just like the ad. The vinyl coating is in a great help so I do not worry about marking my wood floors when storing.
Excellent buy ... best deal I found on the internet ...
I really love these. Originally I ordered a single bell but I added to my collection. They are perfect for a quick home workout. Slide them under the bed and live 'clutter' free. I'll probably buy another set.
The gift recipient appeared very happy that I had purchased this. They knew exactly what they wanted..
Love this product, it is an awesome way to work out and is fun way to get fit. Love IT.
Kettlebells are great, multifunctional workout tools. I've used the Sunny kettbells at my gym at work. They're a great brand and well designed, so I think this was a fair price. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars was because there were a few nicks on it when I receieved it. No big deal.

April 1, 2008
Greg Miclat's perfectly placed safety squeeze bunt in the eighth scored Patrick Wingfield, and that proved to be the winning run, as the Virginia baseball team topped Towson, 9-8. The win improves the Cavaliers' record to 24-5, as they have won ten of eleven on their current 12 game homestand.
After scoring four runs in the bottom of the first, the Wahoos surrendered six in the top of the second to fall behind 6-4. Virginia posted two in the fourth and one in the fifth to take the 7-6 lead, and led 8-6 heading into the eighth. Towson posted two runs in the eighth inning, and Miclat's bunt came in the bottom half of the inning, giving the Cavs the victory.
Virginia and the Tigers finish up their short two game set tomorrow night at 5:00. The Cavaliers return to ACC play at Florida State this weekend, beginning Friday.

Mexico City - Four Day Visit - Suggestions/Thoughts?
I'll be in Mexico City next week - Thursday through Sunday nights, leaving Monday afternoon. I have been a few times in the past year, and want to do a few favorite things but also try some new stuff.
I am staying at the Condesa DF, and have a few friends to see.
Here are my ideas so far:
Drinks on the roof at Condesa DF, tacos at El Califa, then stroll to Casa Lamm for after dinner cocktails, then finish the evening at Tom's on Insurgentes.
Lunch at Contramar at 1pm, stroll around Roma, a museum in the park, a cocktail somewhere then maybe dinner at Pujol
Saturday & Sunday
no real ideas yet - maybe El Bajio?
suggestions? I have read the board and that is where I am getting the Bajio & Pujol inclination from.
Thanks for any ideas.
Why not try some "local" fare - the type of food/meals local residents regularly eat - those not on an expense account? It'll help balance the experience.
I enjoy listening to the mariachi at Plaza Garibaldi and then having something to eat in the adjacent San Camilito food/restaurant market - where there are 30+ places to choose from. The interior spaces of Mercados La Merced, Jamaica and San Cosme are interesting places I stop to eat, also.
There have been so many excellent prior responses to questions similar to yours I wouldn't know where to start - so I suggest you do some additional searching to see what catches your eye, and then you can post for updates if the material might be stale.
Have a great trip.
In terms of cocktails, how about a mescal bar? I love Felina in Condesa -- technically not a mezcal bar per se, but they do have great ambience, chill music, and a nice selection of artisan mescals. It's at Baja California and Ozulama, I believe. La Botica is another mescal bar in Condesa, but in my experience it's always super crowded, noisy and difficult to find a table. If you're up for a journey to Coyoacan, Corazón de Maguey (formerly O Mayatl) is also a great place to have mescal, or a mescal cocktail. It's right on the plaza. They've got nice apps too -- I enjoyed the guacamole with chapulines.
Another fave of mine is Salón Conde in Condesa, off of Tamaulipas and Michoacan. Great for tacos and other casual eats, and they've got wonderful in-house cocktails, and a DJ that plays anything from Van Halen to Daft Punk. Might be a nice balance to the fancier places like Pujol.
If you can swing it, do El Cardenal in the Centro Historico for breakfast. It's fabulous.
I love Califa! And, Im usually the only gringa there.
Another good place for tacos al pastor, etc is El Tizoncito on Tamalipas (there is another El Tizoncito on the side street that is good if the one on Tamalipas is packed.
And C25 on the street that sort of merges with Culiacan near Park Amsterdam is excellent. Across from the Red Tree House Hotel. Probably the best meal I've had in DF and it would be a weekly spot if it was in NYC.
I could eat tacos al pastor every meal, but if you want the stewed meat/vegetable style of tacos - Hola tacos on Michoacan at Amsterdam(?) - again, I was the only non-local at this place. Gets packed!
re: evening
Based on a visit last March, I don't think I would ever skip Contramar on a trip to Mexico City. It's definitely in the expense account league, but worth every penny. And it was all locals--many coming and going in armored SUVs--when we were there.
Al Andar is a small mezcaleria in calle Regina, Centro Historico. Lots of artisanal mezcales and simple good food (i like the fish quesadillas and green pozole). It's located on a beautiful pedestrian street, fondas, restaurants, bars and a traditional pulqueria. Lovely Regina Coelli church and plaza.
I was at Pujol last week, and it was easily one of the best meals I have had this year. Olvera does traditional dishes from all over the country, but his own interpretation of them. His mole di olla was stellar, as was the robalito al pastor, and the aguachile. I recommend the tasting menu highly, along with the wine pairings. And tell Marianna hello for me!
I wanted to report back on a fantastic trip to Mexico City over the Thanksgiving weekend - quite a few food highlights:
Pujol was amazing - we did the tasting menu, and spent a pile of money on wine, and I have to say this was one of the best meals of my life - subtle space, great non-intrusive, but attentive service, and complex, refined food. YUM.
Tacos at El Califa were awesome - I also really enjoyed 4am drunked tacos at Tacos Alvarado on Obregon on my walk home. Also tried El Tezoncito on Tamalpais and Tacos Condesa on Parque Espana.
Brunch at Condesa DF El Patio was quite an experience (expensive) - good food, better people watching on a Sunday. We hung out for hours watching beuatiful people and eating more and more. El Patio for dinner was only so-so for us, and there was a long delay in getting our food.
Contramar was also a highlight - got there just before two on a Friday and got a table and watched the scene develop. Enjoyed the octopus tostada with chipotle aioli, the special green and red fish and some tuna.
This was sort a deluxe trip for me - and it worked at almost every turn. Real deal food.
I also stayed in Condesa, but we were all over the city. Had amazing meals at El Cardenal (breakfast) be sure to get the Conchas, and the omelet with the ant eggs is a regional specialty. If you get there early enough you don't want to miss the Nata. It's an especially thick double cream.
Azul y Oro, at the UNAM was spectacular. Ricardo Munoz Zurita's food is rustic and wonderfully flavorful. The mole de olla was spectacular, and I cannot say enough good things about the Pan d'Elote. It was ethereally mousse-like, not too sweet, and really enhanced by the berries that accompanied it.
re: ChefJune
If you go back to Azul y Oro be sure to try the hot chocolate. Easily the best I've had anywhere.
re: DiningDiva
It was the best hot chocolate I had on my trip. If you are my facebook friend, you will see the picture there. ;)
re: ChefJune
No, hot chocolate photos on my FB feed this morning, must not be your friend ;-(
I looked for my own photo of the hot chocolate and couldn't find it. Oh well...

FORT HOOD, Texas (AP) - A military judge says witness testimony about a dying pregnant soldier's cries of "My baby! My baby!" will be allowed during the murder trial of the Army psychiatrist charged in the 2009 Fort Hood shooting rampage.
Col. Tara Osborn ruled on motions Thursday in Maj. Nidal Hasan's case. He faces execution or life without parole if convicted of 13 counts of premeditated murder and 32 counts of attempted premeditated murder.
Hasan is to enter a plea Tuesday, a week before jury selection begins on the Texas Army post. Under military law, a death penalty case requires a not guilty plea.
At a 2010 hearing, a soldier testified that Pvt. Francheska Velez told him she was pregnant just as the first volley of gunfire rang out. Velez was among those killed.

Mein Kampf worries fuel debate
Printer-friendly versionPDF version
07 Feb 2014
More needs to be done to understand Hitler's infamous autobiographical manifesto "Mein Kampf" to avoid a resurgence of anti-Semitism when its copyright expires in 2016, according to a holocaust historian.
Dr Jean-Marc Dreyfus, from The University of Manchester, says not enough is known about the book which preaches hatred against Jews, and why it is still popular in some parts of the world.
E-book sales of "Mein Kampf", which gives a racist account of world history, have made the top spot on Amazon's propaganda and political psychology chart and entered the top 20 bestselling iTunes politics and events titles.
According Dr Atreyee Sen, a social anthropologist also from the University, the book, first published in 1923, is a common addition to the bookshelves of Indians across all classes.
It is studied, she says, by Indian MBA students, admired by Hindu nationalist political leaders and one of the biggest selling books in the country.
And since it was republished in Turkey in 2005, it has sold 80,000 copies in that country.
Dr Dreyfus is debating the issues with an international panel of experts - including Dr Sen - at a special workshop today (February 7) at The University of Manchester.
He said: "Though the apparent popularity of "Mein Kampf is shocking, we should not conclude that it reflects a rise in anti-Semitism.
"But the fact of the matter is, there's not enough research out there for us to really know what is going on and how likely it is that Mein Kampf will create more hatred when its copyright runs out.
"What we do know is that when it became an official state publication in 1933, it became a best seller in Germany. If it happened then, who's to say what would happen now?
"This debate will start the conversation we all need to have about balancing the need for free speech against the effects of preaching hatred."
Dr Dreyfus is against a ban on the book once its copyright - currently held by the German state of Bavaria - expires.
He is critical of the recent decision by the Bavarian State Government to stop the publication of an annotated edition of the book.
And he is also part of a campaign which argues that all copies published in the EU should be prefaced with a warning that it contains hate material – a current requirement in France, where it sells about 3,000 copies a year.
Notes for editors
'Mein Kampf, warrant for genocide or Corpus delicti: In the public domain 2016' takes place between 11am and 5.15 on 7 February.

Miami, FL 33172
Dear Mr. Castedo,
On May 6-7, 2003, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) conducted an inspection of your facility located at the above address. The inspection was conducted to determine your firms compliance with FDAs seafood processing regulations (21 CFR 123).

However, your firm did not an affirmative step for fresh tuna manufactured by [redacted] in [redacted].
The above identified deviations are not intended to be all inclusive list of deficiencies at your facility. It is your responsibility to ensure that all seafood products processed and distributed by your firm are in compliance with the Act and all requirements of the federal regulations.

Your response should include copies of any available documentation demonstrating that corrections have been made. If corrections cannot be completed within 15 working days, state the reason for the delay and the time frame within which the corrections will be completed.
Your reply relating to these concerns should be directed to the Food and Drug Administration, Attention: Carlos W.

The blogosphere is abuzz today over word that the owner of Japadog, an Asian hot-dog stand that drew enormous lines during the Vancouver Olympics, is looking to set up shop in New York. So how do our hometown heroes Asiadog feel about this? Just fine, it turns out. Japadog may share a similar concept, but our menu and flavors are extremely different, says Melanie Campbell.
This is NYC, and there is enough business for everyone if your food tastes good, and we feel confident that ours does. In fact, theres so much business to go around that Asiadog, currently entrenched at the Brooklyn Flea, has decided to expand. We are definitely opening up a storefront in downtown this year, reveals Campbell, and are working on another huge vending opportunity uptown for the summer. USA! USA!

$20/hour, is that right? I'm getting the app! I'm a regular zipcar user
Considering the cost of an S, I would not consider renting mine out for 20 bucks an hour in San Francisco. Perhaps 100 bucks an hour, and I'd spend that time freaking out. It's a big car and SF grinds up and spits out cars.
A Tesla Model S available to rent by the hour?! Sign me up.
"If you own a car, you can list it on Getaround and rent it out to company's users."
Yeah. RIGHT. Like I (or ANY sane person) would rent my car (mine's a Corvette LT1-powered Impala SS – FAR cheaper than the new Tesla) to total strangers that will likely abuse it… Enjoy the rental fees – and the repair bills, chumps.
GetAround provides insurance to those who rent out the car…
Here's a Tesla Roadster for rent through them but in L.A.
Just go to their site and add
I remember the carsharing service HiGear. It was really cool but had to shut down due to theft. I wouldn't want to rent out my luxury car. As long as I have to leave my key in the car for the renter it is a huge security leak. Anybody can just break the window and drive away…..

My Fair Lady is one of the most popular stage shows of all time, and audiences at the current London revival of this Lerner and Lowe musical can be heard singing softly with Eliza Doolittle as she recalls how she "could have danced all night" or with her father, Alfred Doolittle, as he's on his way to "getting married in the morning." This revival, which premiered last March at the Royal National's Lyttleton Theatre (produced in association with Cameron Mackintosh), transferred to the ...

"We found Philip through searching the web for kitchen island units in France. We had been looking for some sort of unit to suit our kitchen, which we were just about to renovate, re-using and painting the old units. We (I?!) envisaged something rustic, a bit chunky, to blend in with but be different from the fitted kitchen, to add to the eclectic feel of a country kitchen. We didn't have the right shaped kitchen for a big island unit though, and we couldn't find what we wanted in the "off the shelf" units. Philip's concept seemed just right to us, although we knew we would have to go for the smaller version. We met the lovely Philip, and after lots of discussion and viewing several previous examples of his work, we planned a 1mx1.40m bespoke island/peninsula unit with him. He took plenty of time to listen to our thoughts and particular issues, even coming to our house to see how the final unit would work. I was particularly sold on the gorgeous solid oak worktops, and persuaded him to make all of the worktops for the rest of the kitchen too. Philip worked on all of this during the cold of December and January, sending us lots of photos and updates, before completing it beautifully and on time. His interpretation of the design, with his eye for balance and detail in the piece, has produced something we are very proud to own. We still stroke it as we pass, it has such character and presence. We cannot imagine how we ever did without it! As well as plenty of storage, it carries a large vase of flowers, the ever-present bread board and basket with my husband's home-baked bread, and is used, as planned, to prepare food and ease the transfer of shopping into the fridge. Breakfast is eaten around it, friends stand or lean around it with wine and nibbles - it is very much the hub of the kitchen. We love it. Thanks Phil!"
Having seen first hand the quality of Philip Voice's Island Unit we asked him to build us a whole kitchen! He listened carefully to our requirements giving technical advice when necessary.
The result was a superb Kitchen that is attractive, functional and represents excellent value for money. Our kitchen is very much the heart of our home.

Tips On Choosing the Right Novelty for your Market
Novelty marketing can be a good way to spend a limited budget on small gifts for your customers and potential customers. You want to make sure you get this right, or you could just be wasting your money. Sometimes, some of the simplest and more common items are best, other times it is better to make something unique and interesting. The fact remains, most novelty and product-based marketing strategies are not done right, and the money spent is wasted. Look at the options your current business card printing company offers. Some of the most common items really do work. They may have a range of tried and tested products. If you are considering what to do, or what to choose, this article is for you. Tips on making the right choice for your market.
• Market Based Decision. The first thing to consider is your client and potential client demographics. If they are students, pens are a great option. If they are trade workers, something related to their tools, or even a cigarette lighter, might be a better choice. Defining the majority groups inside your target market based on the demographics of those people is the first step in making your choice. You want to reach out to the largest common denominator.
• Gimmick or Useful? Most novelty marketing items come in either of these two categories. Some items are purely for fun, while others are very functional. This should be the next choice. You can either make the decision at this point, or look at the options for both. Gimmick items can often only be 'fun' for a short amount of time. Either way, you want to make sure your final choice is something everyone wants to keep. The longevity of your marketing here is important. Both methods can work very well if done right.
• Quality. Even for the simplest of gimmick items, quality is important. Whatever you supply will be indicative of your company's attention to detail. Great gimmick items that are functional, and last for a long time, are the best. In essence, you must examine the items that you will be giving. If they are pens, for example, you want them to be comfortable to use. Simple give-aways of poor quality will mean you don't look good, and they will be thrown away fast.
• Numbers. As with any kind of production, the more you order, the cheaper the unit price will be. It is worth examining your options. If we compare this with booklet printing, where the unit price can change to less than 5% of a single item, you can see how much difference the investment will make. Double the amount of items will probably mean at least 1/3 of the price per item. The higher the numbers, the radically lower the unit price will be.
• Local Supplier. Unless you are looking for an enormous number of items, it is best you source your products locally. Those items may only be one cent each in China, but the hassle of buying them, checking the quality, and arranging packaging, transport, and payment options, can turn into a real nightmare. Many people make the mistake of buying from international e-commerce sites only to find the whole process time consuming and costly. Your local company has dealt with many issues to get those items close to you. This is not a job you want to tackle on your own.
