9.8 Setting Camera and Audio Device
This section describes the environment configuration of the camera and audio device installed in the system:
■ Enabling Raspberry Pi camera
To use Raspberry Pi dedicated camera that is connected to the CSI port of Raspberry Pi, you need to activate the corresponding camera function through setting.

Then the next screen to select various options starts. Use [Memory Split] here. Move to the corresponding item, select it, and press the [Enter] button.
9.7 Setting Performance Items
Here you can set the environment for items that affect system performance:
■ Setting overclock
Overclock means to increase the processing speed of the CPU by increasing the clock speed of the CPU while leaving the CPU unchanged when fast CPU processing is required for special purpose. Increasing the CPU clock speed will increase the CPU processing speed, but it can overload the CPU, causing a lot of heat in the CPU, which can damage the stability of the CPU and shorten the lifetime of the CPU. Thus, limited use is recommended.
9.6.4 Setting Keyboard
When you set up the keyboard, the necessary settings for following items are set up:
■ Keyboard model
■ Keyboard layout
■ Function key for altgr
■ Compose key

A locale is a system to allow switching among several languages, and it allows the user to select the user’s language, country code, and characters, and a collation order which is a set of rules associated with them. When selecting locales on a newly installed system, the UTF-8 locale must be selected as the default locale. Other locales are to support backward compatibility with other systems that need previous systems.
