Martinez hopes to keep McCarthy
Related Articles
Published: 09 December 2012
The Republic of Ireland international has become a key player for the Latics since joining the club from Hamilton in July 2009 and scored both goals in Saturday's 2-2 draw with QPR - his first for almost two years.
Wigan are no strangers to losing star players to other clubs having seen Leighton Baines, Antonio Valencia, Wilson Palacios and Victor Moses all depart for other Barclays Premier League clubs, the latter joining Chelsea earlier this season. Martinez would certainly not be surprised if McCarthy was the latest player to attract interest, saying: "That's the nature of the game."
He added: "Manchester United lost (Cristiano) Ronaldo so I'm not going to be concerned about that. I'm pleased to see him improving, enjoying his football, taking responsibility and putting in performances to get good results for Wigan Athletic.
"James McCarthy's got the potential to play anywhere in the world and whenever he's ready we'll never stop him. But James McCarthy is at a very good club now and we want top players to stay here for as long as we can."
Moses has made an encouraging start to life at Chelsea but has only started four Barclays Premier League games while Palacios has struggled to make an impact, first at Tottenham and now Stoke.
With competition for places at the top clubs more intense than ever, the same fate could well await McCarthy if he were to leave the DW Stadium.
Martinez said: "If you don't play you'll never fulfil your potential. James has been through two very intense seasons, being very successful and having a massive role and the way he's developing as a player is something he would never do if he wasn't playing regularly.
"This season is an important moment for him. He's starting to have a big role with the Republic of Ireland and you could see (against QPR) he took responsibility, he drove the team forward and at 22 it shows the future for James is really impressive and that's why we put such a big investment in him from a very young age."

LOS ANGELES –- The Grizzlies' losing knows no boundaries.
After learning earlier in the day that veteran guard Allen Iverson left the team to deal with a personal issue the Griz dropped their fifth-straight game Saturday night with a 113-110 loss to the Los Angeles Clippers in Staples Center.
Game stats
Rudy Gay scored a game-high 33 points, but it wasn't enough to prevent the Griz from going winless on a five-game road trip.
Much like they had done with or without Iverson, the Griz had no problem scoring points. Stopping the Clippers was the problem, particularly in the second half.
Still, Gay had a chance to send the game into overtime but he misfired as the final buzzer sounded.
And proof of how the Griz (1-6) can't catch a break happened on that final play. Gay's shot actually would have only counted for two points because his foot was on the three-point arc.
"I just told the guys it's the little things that separate winning and losing," Griz coach Lionel Hollins said. "We had our chances to make plays, but we had some turnovers and a couple of lapses on defense. In close games, you try to take advantage of your possessions. You've got to keep pounding it and grinding it until you get what you want."
Although Iverson's departure meant his teammates no longer had to deal with the distraction his opposition to being a reserve created, it was the latest episode in a drama-filled week.
"We're not trying to make excuses but playing on the road for a week is tough for any team," point guard Mike Conley said. "Then you have somebody in the rotation and when you get used to it somebody goes out. But we'll have to adjust and get past it."
Despite losing an 11-point lead, the Griz made sure there was suspense until the end.
Conley's driving layup cut the deficit to 112-110 with 4.9 seconds. Rasual Butler then split a pair of free throws and gave the Griz one last gasp.
But it was another tough night with turnovers for the Griz. They committed 18 with Conley losing the ball six times to negate his six assists.
Memphis last led 101-100. Los Angeles then scored five straight points, which included a Butler 3-pointer.
The Clippers never relinquished the lead from there.
Chris Kaman's 26 points and nine rebounds led the Clippers, who also got 18 points from Craig Smith off the bench. Kaman finished with his sixth consecutive game of 20 or more points.
Zach Randolph chipped in 19 points and 12 rebounds for the Griz while Conley added 16 points.
"We scraped it out tonight and we got some stops down the stretch," Kaman said of the Clippers' third straight win. "It was good to get another win. We've just got to keep building on this. I'm happy where we're at right now, but we've got to continue to play hard and try to get some more wins."
The game was tied at 82 heading into the fourth quarter after Memphis led 60-55 at halftime.
Gay had 21 points by the intermission, making all but two of his first 10 shots. The 6-8 forward averaged 28.6 points in three games against the Clippers last season.
Memphis came out as the aggressors in the opening minute. The Griz scored the game's first six points and took a 10-2 lead after Gay's monster dunk. Their largest lead was 11 points midway through the opening period.
Without Iverson in the rotation Hollins relied more on Marcus Williams and rookie Sam Young in the guard rotation.
Now, Hollins will learn if he can count on the team's resilience.
"We are going to come along," Hollins said. "We're going to be all right."
— Ronald Tillery: 529-2353

Boy gets new 'inedible' bedroom: Six-year-old with rare condition that means he craves solid objects
- Zach Tahir, from Salford, suffers from the rare condition Pica
- It causes him to crave inedible objects, including stones, paper and moss
By Leon Watson
A boy with a rare condition meaning he can't resist eating wall plaster has been given a unique birthday present - an inedible bedroom.
Zach Tahir is celebrating his sixth birthday today, and his new bedroom has been unveiled after he gnawed through the walls of the last one.
The youngster suffers from the rare condition Pica, which causes him to crave inedible objects, including stones, paper and moss.

Happy birthday! Pica-sufferer Zach Tahir is celebrating being six today with a new bedroom he can't eat
Zach suffers from the rare condition Pica, which causes him to crave inedible objects, including stones, paper and moss
But his craving for the things around him went to a whole new level when he began to chew through through plasterboard and nibble through his blinds.
Mother Rachel Horn, 32, said: 'There's no limit to what he will try and eat.
'We don't know what appeals to him about the objects around him but there's nothing we can do to stop him trying to chew through anything and everything.'
Zach's new bedroom has been uniquely designed with squash-court walls that due to their tough shiny surface, means he won't be able to gnaw at them.
And, the room has been kitted out with fool-proof furniture that he's unable to sink his teeth into, with slanted window sills to stop him climbing.
Ms Horn said: 'His wardrobes and chest of drawers have been made with rounded edges and installed so he can't pull them over.

Zach's mother Rachel Horn, 32, said: 'There's no limit to what he will try and eat.'

'We have also had to have the blinds in his bedroom installed in between the window panes so he can't reach them, and the sticks to adjust them are magnetic so I can remove them as and when.'
The bedroom, thought to be the first of its kind for PICA sufferers, has cost the family £36,000 to be created as an extension had to be built on the family's home in Salford, Greater Manchester.
Salford Council have stumped up £26,000 as part of a disability allowance, but Ms Horn has managed to raise a further £10,000 through charitable donations.

Those included in supporting Zach's fund are members of the cast of ITV soap Coronation Street and comedian John Bishop.
Ms Horn,
who gave up her job in a bank to look after Zach, said: 'It's been
overwhelming how much people have helped to raise the money for Zach's
'It's such a
worry knowing he could put anything in his mouth, and when he began
eating wood, I was terrified it may splinter in his mouth or he would
swallow a large piece and choke.'
People suffering from Pica frequently crave and eat substances with no nutrition, such as dirt, paint, ice, sand, glue and chalk.
The condition, which gets its name from the Latin word for magpie – a bird known for its large and indiscriminate appetite – affects up to 30 per cent of children aged between one and six.
Although the condition sounds bizarre, it is actually classed as serious eating disorder that can cause serious health problems such as lead poisoning and anaemia.
However, in some cases, a lack of certain nutrients, such as iron or zinc deficiency may trigger the unusual cravings.
Pica is most common in people with learning or developmental disabilities, such as autism, or those who've suffered a brain injury.
It can also be a problem for some pregnant women or people with epilepsy.
In many cases, the disorder lasts several months, then disappears on its own.
Otherwise, treatment can involve replacing missing nutrients causing the cravings, giving medication to deal with a learning disability or giving rewards for eating normal food.
Zach, who has a younger sister, Isabella, three, has suffered with Pica all through his life and began by eating moss when he first could walk around outside.
'He likes things that are very textured, such as moss and paper, as he can mull them around and chew on them for a while,' Ms Horn said.
'It's worrying for me as a parent, as you worry what kind of germs he might be eating.'
Amazingly, despite having the condition all of his life, Zach, who is autistic and cannot speak, has never needed any medical treatment.
But, Ms Horn finds it hard to trust Zach as he goes out of his way to find things to eat.
She has CCTV equipment installed in his bedroom which she can access at any time from her smartphone.
She said: 'When I hear him in the night, I just switch on the camera through my phone and can see what I'm doing.
'If I go straight in there, he can become distressed and not want me to leave him again, so it's best if I can see what he's doing without him knowing.
'He doesn't sleep much because he has a very active mind due to being autistic so he keeps me on my toes, especially at night.
'His new room will mean he can settle more and will hopefully go to sleep for longer periods when he realises there's no point in him staying up to try and find things to eat.'

Scandal in Montreal: Canadiens Involved in Crime?
This morning, Montreal's La Presse newspaper had a huge scoop about three players from the Montreal Canadiens.
According to La Presse, Sergei Kostitsyn, his brother Andrei Kostitsyn and defense men Roman Hamrlik made business with Pasquale Mangiola, a member of an international criminal organization who was busted a few weeks ago by the police.
As the news is still extremely fresh, we do not possess all the details on how, where, when and how much were these transactions. A lot more details will be clarified as time will pass.
As for the Montreal Canadiens organization itself, a press conference was scheduled today, giving the chance to the Canadiens to express their surprise and concerns.
The General Manager, Bob Gainey, said that every time he hears something of this nature about his players he passes the information to the team's security department and more particularly Louis Laframboise.
Gainey also said that the 18-22 generation faces different problems and situations and Gainey also confessed that he doesn't completely understand this generation.
Head coach Guy Carbonneau said that he was deceived and concerned. Carbonneau confessed that he maybe gave a little too much rope to his players with the result that some of them hung themselves with it. He also said that he will reel in the rope and keep it a lot tighter.
These reactions from the team GM and head coach are not surprising. The only thing surprising enough is the way that these youngsters won their bosses' confidence. A little more focus and more productive searches would've uncovered this story a lot earlier.
As for myself, I will not blame the young Kostitsyn brothers for bonding with criminals. I am blaming the organization. The team president Pierre Boivin, GM Bob Gainey and head coach Guy Carbonneau are to blame. Those three mens did not protect their young prospects from criminals and worse of all, they did not have a clue! I call this incompetence.
We will follow this story as more will be uncovered.

Part 2: When FHM met the EDL
Seven o'clock, Saturday morning. On any other weekend the men filling up Luton's Sicilian café would be sleeping off their hangovers. But right now they're lining their stomachs with £3.50 fry-ups and stocking up on tinnies for the long journey up the M62 to Rochdale. Some are dozing on tables, others still haven't been to bed, including 25-year-old Johnny. "I joined the EDL 'cause we've had enough of the Asians taking over," he says. Will today be violent? "Nah, today should be peaceful. Unless they try to start on us…"
Recently the EDL's protests have been less savage, but seldom does a demonstration take place without a few arrests and black eyes. "Don't get me wrong, you'll have some lairy young lads," says Tommy Robinson. "There are going to be some angry people there, but during our last 15, 20, probably more demonstrations there's been no violence from the English Defence League."
That said, when EDL protests turn nasty, they turn seriously nasty. In September 2009, 90 men were arrested following a protest in Birmingham. A year later, EDL members threw bricks and coins at police. In November 2011, 176 EDL supporters were cuffed in London; a month after, an EDL activist was jailed for 10 years for setting a mosque on fire. The list goes on and on.
With the subject of today's march more sensitive than usual, nobody is really sure what to expect. But judging by Twitter, no one is totally safe, including FHM; an EDL splinter group, Casuals United, has issued a "fatwa" against the press, warning any media in attendance that they'll be treated as "hostile". Matt Goodwin, an Associate Professor at the University of Nottingham who has conducted major research projects on far right extremism, warns of the threat of bloodshed: "I think the English Defence League exerts a potential for violence, especially if they were openly attacked or felt under threat."
Dan Hodges, of left-wing anti-fascist organisation Hope Not Hate agrees: "[EDL] demonstrations are usually accompanied by violence, of which the EDL are invariably the prime perpetrators. Violence and intimidation is associated with the EDL. Anyone who has gone to one of their demonstrations knows that they are not a peaceful organisation."
As the bus sets off for Rochdale, the mood is jovial, but there's an unmistakable air of tension wafting through the 64-seater, accompanying the stench of beer. Not that anything will stop Maddie and Claire, two die-hard EDL-ites, from making the most of a day out. At 8.45am the Smirnoff and OJ is flowing; by quarter past 10 the '90s karaoke has begun. As Tommy patrols the bus leading choruses of "E-E-EDL" and "No surrender to the Taliban", it's clear to see what an icon he is to these followers. "I absolutely love Tommy Robinson, he's my absolute hero. I think he's the best bloke on the whole planet. And I mean that," says Claire, as she plants a sloppy kiss on his cheek.
By 11.30am the party is in full swing. The beers are passed around the bus; there's laughter, singing, dancing, chanting. It feels like a school away day – co-founder Kev O'Connell even hands sweeties round to those on best behaviour. But as the bus pulls into Rochdale's city centre and the scale of the vast police presence becomes apparent, tipsy camaraderie turns to lagered-up aggression for some on-board.
Roused by the sight of dozens of St George's flag-clad EDL supporters who've come from around the country, the chants get louder and more menacing, and you can't help but feel that the mood is on a knife-edge – one act of provocation, one heavy-handed policeman, and this could all, in the words of Tommy Robinson, "kick right off".
As he steps off the bus, Robinson is mobbed by his adoring fans. He's a celebrity and a role model to the EDL's followers. Men, women and children of all ages clamour over each other to shake the hand of their leader; a father proudly parades his six-year-old son donning an EDL beanie, professing to Robinson that his boy is, "officially the youngest EDL supporter". As we move into the first meeting point outside Yates's, heavily flanked by police, the chants kick off again. "Keep St George in my heart, keep me English" this time, followed by "Muslim bombers off our streets" and "EDL till I die".
Before long the march begins, and the 500-strong police force – who have literally shut down Rochdale's entire town centre – block off all surrounding roads in an attempt to eliminate the threat of violence. But about 100 yards into the surprisingly short 15-minute march, there's an eruption as an Asian man on the other side of the barriers reportedly provokes protesters from across the metal railing. There's a frenzied rush from demonstrators to the barriers; beer cans fly, and fists and limbs launch through the air before a storm of coppers armed with teeth-baring dogs charge in to pull them off, stamping on a couple of shaven heads in the process.
After the compere who is waiting on stage pleads with the marchers not to incite any more violence, the rest of the protest is relatively peaceful (there are 11 arrests in total). But as Tommy Robinson takes to the platform to give his speech, you feel like a mass brawl isn't far away. In his left hand is the Qur'an, in his right a giant novelty-sized lighter. If there's one thing Robinson knows how to do, it's get a crowd frothy at the mouth; he's mastered the art of channelling frustration and apathy from a disenfranchised audience into full-blooded hate. "Burn it, burn it" comes the cry from the crowd, while police wait on tenterhooks for Robinson to commit the criminal offence of burning a religious text.
In spite of the chants, the Qur'an remains in one piece, but that doesn't stop the hooded and masked crowd charging to the police barriers for some posturing and chanting to the surveillance cameras.
In the aftermath of Robinson's lengthy speech, there's some more singing, some more drinking and then a long trip home for many of these supporters who've come from far and wide.
Looking around as the crowds disperse, perhaps the most significant observation isn't what people are doing or saying or wearing, but how few of them there are. Over the past two years the EDL has been touted as the powerful new force of the far-right, and a year ago anywhere between one and two thousand supporters attended every protest. This year they've not managed to muster more than four to five hundred; today's demonstration is attended by less than 350.
It's not a figure that suggests the EDL are as close to a revolution as Robinson might think. Sabby Dhalu, of Unite Against Fascism, thinks that the movement is firmly on its way down. "I think already support for their street demonstrations is declining and I think it is difficult for them to gain momentum. They don't seem to have a strategic way forward; the only tactic they have is street demonstrations, and that's it. It doesn't really fit into a wider programme."
So what does the future hold for the EDL? There are plans to pursue more political paths – they've already joined forces with the British Freedom Party, of which Tommy Robinson is now Deputy Leader. Their mission statement is less extreme than the EDL's in the hope of recruiting more followers from the middle; their aim is "to defend and restore the freedoms, traditions, unity, identity, democracy and independence of the British people".
But there's widespread opinion that despite this, the EDL's violent past and its leader's reputation scare off new recruits. Dan Hodges, of Hope Not Hate, argues that the EDL's failure to capitalise on early momentum is down to that fact that "people like Tommy Robinson, try as they might, cannot hide their aggressive and violent agenda – the prejudice that comes through their organisation".
Associate Professor Matt Goodwin also sees Robinson as a barrier to progress. "I don't think he is the credible, legitimate figure that an organisation like the EDL would need to convince larger numbers of people to support it," he says. And there are concerns from within, too. Is the man who has done pretty serious jail time, including 12 months for assaulting an off-duty police officer who was breaking up a domestic between Robinson and his partner, the right man to take the EDL forward?
Perhaps more pressing is the question of where exactly the EDL wants to go. Matt Goodwin thinks it has reached a crossroads: "There are some within the movement who want to see it go to the next level, and whether that's through elections or whether it's through violence, there is clearly a push. The movement's gone through its adolescence and its early years and I think people are now saying: 'Where is the organisation going?'"
For Robinson, it's one day at a time. When pushed on the future of the EDL he speaks positively about the union with the British Freedom Party ("we're pulling the strings, it's our ideology"), but there's no escaping the fact that he and his group face more challenges than ever before.
There's also the uncomfortable reality that the threats to the party are matched in severity by the persistent threats to the safety of Robinson and his family. "Will I still be alive in five years' time?" Robinson asks before we bid farewell. "Honestly… I don't know, there's a lot of Muslims out there who want me dead. I've had three Osman warnings from the police – that's an official warning that you're going to get killed. So I think it's only a matter of time."
Whether Robinson and his party live or die, only time will tell, but one thing's for certain: whatever struggles they face, the EDL won't go down without a fight.

Where would we be without our cameras? There's so many ways to document life these days, it's almost second nature to see something, snap it and share it. I know my slight addiction to all things social means that you could argue that I'm not experiencing the moment enough because I'm taking a picture, but I'm the kind of person who loves visual memories and I'm willing to multi-task a little if it means I can look back on it in a few years. A few weeks ago I was invited to take part in the Pentax #Q7weeksofcolour challenge, to take a photo a day with this nifty new camera and share accordingly. It's so dinky and retro that I cooed a little when I opened the box but somehow I stopped myself and got to work setting it up and testing it out. Since I've had a DSLR for over two years, I'm a little more adventurous with settings now but when I first started blogging I pretty much used Auto and that was it. Photography is one of the greatest hobbies I've picked up as a result of IWYTK, it came in mighty handy when I was backpacking and working out how best to capture a rock, so how would my skills fare with a slightly different model?
Coat - H&M
Jumper - Topshop
Socks - Urban Outfitters
It's not just Kate Middleton who wears old stuff, but the rest of us non-royal mortals too. This H&M coat is two years old and still going strong. I remember feeling quite bored of it last year but after having a little flirtation with my A.P.C, ASOS and Urban Outfitters styles, I'm now happy to wear it again. It's a bit like putting on an old friend, I almost forgot I had it until I saw some amazingly dressed person and realised that I actually owned a similar coat. The purchase of the skirt is a major contrast, I spotted it on Refinery 29 the night before these shots were taken and ordered it on a whim thanks to the bargain price. I don't really do sequins or glitter in December, but cracked leather I can definitely work with and I like how it has the ability to dress up anything. Finally my Swedish Hasbeens boots have been broken in enough to wear for a full day! I've been obsessed with this style ever since I saw them on Natalie Off Duty, I don't quite have the same swagger but it's nice to attempt it and wear a different take on the black ankle boot.
Red - Ever wanted to match your sewing basket to your pyjamas? It's possible with Cath Kidston!
Lilac - Gorgeous macarons at the French Sole SS14 press day
Green - Almost missed my train snapping these leaves
Black - New vintage discovery c/o ASOS Marketplace
Purple - Tension Swatch for my Wool And The Gang Hat
Blue - Amazing graffiti in Shoreditch
Now for the snaps I took! Admittedly I took my pictures over the course of seven non-consecutive days, mainly because I lost the charger under my bed for a bit, so it's probably just as well I wasn't doing 'A Photo, An Hour' (though Niotillfem makes me want to attempt it). At first it was a little strange switching back to a mirrorless camera model. I kept trying to look through the non-existent viewfinder instead of the LCD screen and searching for the usual dials, but once I got used to things, I liked the simplicity. It's not quite a point-and-shoot and not really a DSLR but a nice size nontheless when you don't want to carry a second bag (as I often have to) but silll want to capture moments nicely. My thing is to never read camera manuals and I prefer to learn by doing, so I made an effort to try and change the ISO and white balance, whilst doing my usual correction in Photoshop. This would be a nice starting camera for any new blogger to get used to photography and not sacrifice their love for small handbags, plus you can customise it so it's any colour you want. Win!
If you want to win your own Q7, then check out the #Q7weeksofcolour competition at their Facebook page. So many colour possibilities!

This document explains the steps to install OpenRemote Controller on Raspberry Pi. These instructions are mainly contributed by the OpenRemote user community. We wish to thank everyone who has given their input and feedback. Special mentions for valuable contributions goes to: Jani Kahrama, Nejc Šmid, Sebastian Niepel, Igorius, Bob and Kal Ross.
For additional questions, please use the OpenRemote User Forums or the comments section of this page. If you're interested in making similar contributions to the documentation wiki, please contact us.
You can download Raspbian Wheezy image (or Debian 'soft-float' Wheezy in case you plan to use Oracle Embedded SE for ARM Java virtual machine, see notes below) from http://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads. Follow instructions on that website on how to install image onto SD card.
There are two different Debian images floating around (pun intended). One is so called 'soft-float' and the other one is 'hard-float'. There's a difference in how floating point arithmetic is handled between the two: the soft float means floating point arithmetic is handled with software emulation where as 'hard-float' indicates floating point operations can be handled in hardware by the FPU on the chip. The latter usually gives nice performance advantages where floating point operations are required.
Whether a soft-float or hard-float is used is an option in the compiler. This means the binaries used for either platform must be compiled targeting either software emulated or hardware handled floating point operations.
Why is all this relevant?
If you are installing OpenRemote with "Oracle Embedded SE 6 for ARM" (currently recommended for best performance) on Raspberry Pi, please download the the "soft-float" Debian Wheezy image from the Raspberry Pi website. As noted on the download page, the soft-float version is currently required by "Oracle Embedded SE 6" Java virtual machine to work correctly. It does not work with, or does it take advantage of the hardware based 'hard-float' ABI on ARM.
However, some user do report (Thanks Bob and Jani Kahrama) success with latest "Java SE 8 for ARM Early Access" which as the name suggests is compiled for ARM architectures. The "Java SE 8 Early Access for ARM" does work with hardware FPU on ARM so hard-float Rasbian Wheezy distribution is suitable. To make things a little more confusing for you, the Java JDK 8 is the regular Java Standard Edition distribution that is also used on PC desktops, servers, data-centers, etc. This is a different distribution package from the "Oracle Java SE Embedded" targeting devices.
Do note that the "Java SE 8 for ARM Early Access" is not released for production use yet, so your mileage may vary.
See the next step for a matrix of different combination of Java virtual machines and Debian images.
Here's a table to help you choose which images and Java virtual machines to choose:
Choose the installation package for Java VM above.
If you choose "Oracle SE 6 Embedded" then please follow the JVM installation instructions on page http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/articles/java/raspberrypi-1704896.html#Java (section Java SE Embedded Setup). Note that you should download Java SE 6 Embedded instead of Java SE 7 Embedded mentioned in the page.
If you choose to install "Java SE 8 for ARM Early Access" then follow the installation instructions for Raspberry Pi here: http://jdk8.java.net/fxarmpreview/javafx-arm-developer-preview.html.
For both Oracle Java versions (SE 6 Embedded or full Java SE 8 for ARM) you will need to agree to Oracle's license and terms to download these packages. If you elect to install the open IcedTea6 package instead, you can do so with following command:
$ sudo apt-get install icedtea-6-jre-cacao
Confirm your Java installation was successful by checking the Java VM version and build:
$ which java /usr/bin/java $ java -version OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 x.x.x) OpenJDK Zero VM (build XXX, mixed mode)
Output of the 'which' command will vary depending which Java VM package you've installed.
To be on the safe side, help Java applications find your installed Java virtual machine (many Java applications attempt to locate the Java VM using JAVA_HOME variable although not all require it):
$ export JAVA_HOME=/usr
Download and unzip the latest OpenRemote controller from http://download.openremote.org
While OpenRemote is written in Java to be portable across different operating systems and CPU architectures, there are a few places where we need to reach to the native layers to access serial or USB ports, etc. These steps are only necessary if you plan on using protocols that require serial port access, such as Z-Wave.
By default, these native libraries are compiled for x86 CPU architecture. You will need to update them to ARM binaries when running on Raspberry Pi.
Serial port access from OpenRemote Controller is done with RXTX library. To download and install ARM based binary of RXTX, execute the following commands:
$ sudo apt-get install librxtx-java $ cp /usr/lib/jni/librxtxSerial.so \[path to OpenRemote Controller]/\ OpenRemote-Controller-2.0.2/webapps/controller/WEB-INF/lib/native/librxtxSerial.so
For panStamps and ARM version of ZeroMQ, please follow this thread: Raspbian related issues.
Next steps are to start the OpenRemote Controller and verify that it is running correctly. From the terminal, execute the following commands:
$ cd ~/Desktop/OpenRemote-Controller-2.0.2/bin
Make sure the file openremote.sh is executable, if not already:
$ sudo chmod +x openremote.sh
Run the controller:
$ ./openremote.sh run
To make sure your controller started up properly, open browser and log onto http://localhost:8080/controller. You should see the default controller management page which allows you to download/synchronize your designs from the OpenRemote Online Designer.
For quick and easy set up, you can start OpenRemote Controller every time your Raspberry Pi boots up by modifying /etc/rc.local file:
$ sudo nano /etc/rc.local
Add the following lines just before the line with 'exit 0':
cd /home/pi/Desktop/OpenRemote-Controller-2.0.0/bin ./openremote.sh start
For a more complete service setup of OpenRemote Controller with proper start/stop/restart functionality, create a script file as shown below (contributed by Kal Ross) and place it in /etc/init.d directory. You can name the script as you wish, just use the script name consistently in the steps that follow. Note: you should modify the first command shown below with the proper path to your OpenRemote Controller installation:
#!/bin/sh ### BEGIN INIT INFO # Provides: openremote # Required-Start: $remote_fs $syslog # Required-Stop: $remote_fs $syslog # Default-Start: 2 3 4 5 # Default-Stop: 0 1 6 # Short-Description: Start daemon at boot time # Description: Enable service provided by daemon. ### END INIT INFO cd /opt/openremote/bin # Modify this line to your OpenRemote Controller installation path case "$1" in stop) echo "Stopping OpenRemote Controller..." /opt/openremote/bin/openremote.sh stop > /dev/null 2>&1 & ;; start) # start OpenRemote in background mode /opt/openremote/bin/openremote.sh start > /dev/null 2>&1 & echo "OpenRemote Controller started..." ;; restart) $0 stop sleep 5 $0 start ;; *) echo "usage: $0 { start | stop | restart}" >&2 exit 1 ;; esac
Make sure the script you saved above has its executable bit set:
$ sudo chmod +x /etc/init.d/NameOfYourScript
The following command makes the script run at startup:
$ sudo update-rc.d NameOfYourScript defaults
You might want to give your Raspberry Pi a static IP address. This way you ensure that the IP address configured in your OpenRemote panels (iOS, Android) remain valid and you don't need to reconfigure them if the network IP address of your Raspberry Pi changes.
You can search the Raspberry Pi website for instructions on how to set up a static IP address or follow the instructions on Oracle's blog for Raspberry to set up static IP address (Optional Linux Tuning and Tweaking section): http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/articles/java/raspberrypi-1704896.html#Optional
Do note that the OpenRemote Controller startup still takes quite some time on Raspberry Pi. When you restart the RPi, there can be a delay of several minutes before your iPhone will detect the OpenRemote controller.

I had issues with icedtea-7-jre-cacao. Drools did not work as the current version only works with jre6, not jre7. sudo aptitude install icedtea-6-jre-cacao fixed it.
Step "4. Set JAVA_HOME environment variable" was not necessary.

Hi I try to install Java using the command $ sudo apt-get install icedtea-7-jre-cacao
It's asking me to install some packages but when I said [Yes] it' don't find the files. Below my log:

What can I try?
Sep 27, 2012
Did you try to install jre6 instead of jre7 as suggested by Sebastian? At least it fixed it also on my Raspberry
Oct 18, 2012
Start "raspi-config" and execute "update". After that I was able to install icedtea. You have to use jre-6 since our drools version does not run on jdk7 yet.
Oct 08, 2012
Thanks for the feedback everyone. Have updated the document by downgrading it to Java6 which is what we currently use for testing, included a note about proprietary Oracle VM with JIT for extra performance and updated the startup script to include cd'ing to bin directory before starting the controller to avoid issues with paths.
Oct 29, 2012
As noted in the article, the Oracle JRE currently requires you to run Soft-float Debian Wheezy, not Raspbian Wheezy.
May 05, 2013
I'd like to suggest updating the page to include mention of the Java SE 8 (with JavaFX) Developer Preview for ARM, just as Bob, I've been running it for months without issues, scheduling macros included.
May 06, 2013
Yes, this has been done.
Feb 20, 2013
I have been using Java SE 8 (with JavaFX) Developer Preview for ARM for the past couple of weeks without issue (Mea Culpa: I'm not actually knowledgeable enough to know how an issue would present itself though). As I understand it, JDK 8 supports hard float and JIT processing. When I intially installed OpenRemote on my RPi I used Iced Tea and then later switched to JDK 8. My impression was that OpenRemote ran more smoothly and started up quicker.
Savage Home Automation has a very good writeup on how to install it and was what I used. http://www.savagehomeautomation.com/projects/raspberry-pi-installing-oracle-java-se-8-with-javafx-develop.html
Have updated the page with information about Java SE 8 developer preview. Thanks for sharing this tip and let us know if you find any issues as you go forward.
The current set of page updates are now complete. Additional feedback, comments and corrections are welcome as usual.

Hi - I'd like to add something that may be useful to others when trying to install any of the Oracle versions of Java. When I followed the instructions at the links provided above on the Oracle site, I found I had to perform a few additional steps. These are mainly required if you intend to use the start up service script.
On a fresh install of Debian wheezy for the PI, the instructions given leave you at a point where Java 6 is installed in directory called /home/pi/java . This is fine when you intend to run any Java jars by providing the full path to the JVM (example /home/pi/java/ejre1.6.0_38/bin/java -jar testjavaprogram.jar) However, init scripts run as root on boot up, and seems to expect the JVM executable to be in /usr/bin/java
To get around this, I used Debian's built in "alternative" method. I entered the following commands: pi@raspberrypi ~ $ sudo update-alternatives --install "/usr/bin/java" "java" "/home/pi/java/ejre1.6.0_38/bin/java" 1 pi@raspberrypi ~ $ sudo update-alternatives --set java /home/pi/java/ejre1.6.0_38/bin/java
Then, I also added the following to the file /etc/environment JAVA_HOME="/home/pi/java/ejre1.6.0_38"
And finally, I added the following to /home/pi/.bashrc export JAVA_HOME="/home/pi/java/ejre1.6.0_38" export PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin
Now everything works fine for me. Open-remote and three of my other java apps all now run correctly on start-up. I was using Java 6 above, but i'm sure if the file paths are altered for any of the other java versions, this should also work. You can even install all the JVMs and use the 'alternative' method to switch between them for comparison.
Perhaps I missed an instruction somewhere already and maybe you wont need to do the above, but as it took me a little while to figure it out, I thought i'd share my experience...
As a new user to open remote, I just wanted to thank the guys for creating it, Its an amazing product to give away for free! Thanks guys!
Hello Paddy,
Thanks for going through the steps and documenting your changes here.

hello, Sorry for my bad english, I use google translation. Some remarks on this tutorial that does not know linux:
1°/ what command must be run in the console "putty" to install the Java version (apt-wget ...) to simplify the tutorial?
2°/ a where to install java, which folder?
3°/ what command must be run in the console "putty" to install the "controller" (wget apt-...) to simplify the tutorial?
4°/ Beware of "7" is the way "~ Cd / Desktop/OpenRemote-Controller-2.0.2/bin" whereas "9" the path is "cd / home/pi/Desktop/OpenRemote-Controller- 2.0.0/bin "and it will not start

In OpenRemote, the version of drools is 5.1.1. With version 5.3.0, java 7 is supported.
Sep 23
I am trying to get OR running on my RP after not playing with it for a while.
On http://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads, they no longer offer separate hard float and soft float versions of raspbian. I believe that they are all hard float compiled now.
Also, Oracle now offers a version 7 hard float, but I haven't tried it yet.
Nov 22
The only working Java edition for a Raspberry Pi that works together with OpenRemote and with the RaZberyy ZWave platform is OpenJDK (IcedTea6 Zero VM). The RaZberry software requires a hard-float installation which excludes the Oracle SE 6 VM (only available for soft float configuration). Oracle SE 7 is incompatible with the Drools rule engine 5.1.1 that is currently used by OpenControl 2.0, 2.1 (and soon 2.2). Also Java SE 8 has problem with the Drools rule engine 5.1.1, even if this may not be immediately visible. But rules that are reading sensor values are not working (it has me taken multiple evenings to figure out this!):
rule "Show Event" when $evt : Event(source == "TestAlarmTriggerStatus") then execute.command("LogStatus", $evt.getValue().toString() ); end
OpenJDK (IcedTea6 Zero VM) is slower than Oracle Java, but it is available for hard float installation and the Drools rule engine 5.1.1 works. I hope OpenRemote will be soon updated to Drools 5.5 that should again be compatible with Oracle Java 8.
Nov 30
When I found out about Openremote I decided to try it by installing the controller on a Mac. I was very positively surpised by all what openremote offers, and I am decided to use it for a small home automation project. Then I decided to buy a Raspberry Pi and install the controller on it, but I was a little bit scared by all the issues related to Java versions and Hard vs. Soft Float described in this section. Fortunately it ended up being much easier than I expected.
The Raspbian image that comes with NOOBS image of November 2nd, is hard float and comes with Oracle Java 7 already installed. With it, insallation of the controller in the Raspberry Pi has been as easy as in the Mac. So far I haven't stressed it too much, but it's running smoothly and reliably.
yesterday at 4:46 AM
Will this same process work on the beaglebone?
yesterday at 5:50 AM
Haven't tested but it should be fairly similar as far as I understand.
Would you be interested in trying and documenting differences?
yesterday at 6:37 AM
Sure. I'm a bit of a novice when it comes to Linux and my Beaglebone hasn't even arrived yet but I'll see what I can do when the thing arrives in the next couple days. I'm super excited.
yesterday at 6:43 AM
Thanks for the quick reply. I'll probably have more questions once I get started.

This is one of the scenes I worked in years ago .. for the movie (Undisputed 2 Last Man Standing ) 2006 ... In that time I didn't knew Scott Adkins ... But from his fights with Michael J White I told my friends he is really good fighter ... Year Later I worked with him in the movie ( The Shepherd ) ... and when J.J Perry introduced me to him .. I told him I am the man who broke your leg in the movie ( Undisputed 2 ) .. He Smile and said : My mother felt so bad when she saw that scene !!! .. and I said to him : I am sorry and please tell your mother I am sorry too ...!!!
After another 6 months from that meeting while shooting the third movie with him ( The Tournament ) .. it happen the real accident that broke both my legs ... ;-) Strange !!! ha ?
By the way Scott Adkins is one of the great actors and Martial Artists in our time ... Just hope Hollywood will give him more better movies to act in ... and then he will be able to walk away from the low budget movies !
Modeling this detailed leg took me near by 6-8 hours ... !!!
in the same time I worked in more than another 7 shots in this movie ... making CGI SNOW ... ;-)
Hope you like it
" This is one of the shots that I will use for my new Demo Reel "
