	+	There are several ways to start a new page. These can vary based on the type of page started, as well as the wiki and namespace.

	+	== Using Wikilinks ==
	+	MediaWiki makes it very easy to link wiki pages using a standard syntax (see [[Help:Links\|Links]]). If you (or anyone else) creates a link to an article that doesn't exist yet, the link will be coloured red, <span style="color: #ba0000">like this</span>.
	+
	+	Clicking a red link will take you to the edit page for the new article. Simply type your text, click save and the new page will be created.
	+
	+	Once the page has been created, the link will change from <span style="color: #ba0000">red</span> to <span style="color: #002bb8;">blue</span> (<span style="color: #5a3696;">purple</span> for pages you've visited) indicating that the article now exists.
	+
	+	Usually this is the best way to create a new page, because it means that right from the start, the page will be linked from at least one other place on the wiki (and typically you will want to mesh it into other related pages later). If you are creating a new page without creating any link to it, you may need to ask yourself: Does this page really fit in with the topics already covered in the wiki? Also, how are you expecting visitors to find this page? Normally there is no reason to create a page without first creating a red link to it.
	+
	+	== Using the URL ==
	+	You can use the wiki's URL for creating a new page. The URL to an article of the wiki is usually something like this:
	+	*<code><nowiki>http://www.example.net/index.php/</nowiki>'''ARTICLE'''</code>    or
	+	*<code><nowiki>http://www.example.net/wiki/</nowiki>'''ARTICLE'''</code>
	+
	+	If you replace <code>'''ARTICLE'''</code> with the name of the page you wish to create, you will be taken to a blank page which indicates that no article of that name exists yet. Clicking the "{{int:edit}}" [[Help:Navigation#Page Tabs\|page tab]] at the top of the page will take you to the edit page for that article, where you can create the new page by typing your text, and clicking submit.
	+
	+	== From the search page ==
	+	If you search for a page that doesn't exist (using the search box and “{{int:go}}” button on the left of the page) then you will be provided with a link to create the new page. (Note that this technique doesn't work if you use the “{{int:search}}” button).
	+
	+	== Create redirects to your new page ==
	+	Don't forget to setup redirects when you create a page. If you think another person may search for the page you've created by using a different name or spelling, please create the proper redirect(s). See [[Help:Redirects]]

−	~~load_binary /home/steve/juice_box/display/comm_1.bin 0x0c001000~~
−	~~resume 0x0c001000~~
−
−	~~or if you are one of the few with a fatjbox just put display.bin on your sd card and run.~~
−
−	~~From another terminal window run the perl driver program (note the two nonstandard modules Device::SerialPort 0~~
−	~~d Time::HiRes)~~
−	~~example:~~
−	~~./unix_driver.pl planet571.jbp~~
−
−	~~The perl driver program supplies the data over the serial port of the pc to the juicebox.~~
−	~~I assuming that you have a serial port attached to the juice box.~~
−
−	~~You can define bitmaps on the pc, download them over the serial port and display them on the juicebox. The barg~~
−	~~raph and the grid are two intrinsic graphics types that the juice box display program already knows about.~~
−
−	~~Future development:~~
−	~~I hope someone who is clever will rewrite these routines to only use the jtag port. The arm7 has a software bre~~
−	~~ak instruction,so it is possible to watch the jtag port and wait for the display program running on the juicebo~~
−	~~x to "break", then jtag data into a register and jtag a continue instruction. This would eliminate the costly s~~
−	~~erial port. You can build a jtag for less than $5. Using the jtag also eliminates the need for the sd/xd hack.~~
−	~~So you can use the juice box as a cheap graphics display for your projects like geeXboX or other HTPC.~~
