Persistant Info On Screen

  • I am using a 2Gb RPi4.

    After this Pi had laid around for a while, I fired it up again. It was on 11.0.1.

    I noticed information showing in the upper left hand corner of the screen.

    There are three lines of information

    1 Starts with the word Log, and shows a path to a log file

    2 memory usage

    3 CPU usage

    It persists after a power down or reboot. It jumps around that corner a little, like its a screensaver not wanting to burn the screen.

    I dropped 11.0.4 into the update folder and it still persists.

    I don't understand where this is coming from. Did I flip some switch in the settings?

    I had a keyboard connected for a while and I tried all the letters to try and find one that would turn it off. No joy.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks.

  • If it has been lying around for a while chances it needs a firmware update. Try that first by downloading the latest version of LE and do a fresh image to the SD card. From there you can troubleshoot it further. Could be a number of problems involved like bad image, faulty SD card etc so rule all that out first.
