i2c device disappeared after update #16

I just booted up my CTS station from last year. The first thing I did was update packages. After the update, the i2c device was not available and writing to the LCD through the Adafruit library would crash.

The fix was to comment out or remove the line: i2c-bcm2708 from /etc/modules, then reboot.

Before the fix, i2cdetect -l would return nothing. After, it would list the i2c-1 adapter.

I am trying to make a return station for tomorrow and also having LCD issues. I am going to try under this issue to catch our stations up to the latest Jessie release which would also give us the boot on wait for network issue and if all works out I will check in the instructions for making a station from scratch.

The Return Prop I have is a prototype close but not exactly like the ones the schools have.

The angles on the prototype are (approximately):

84, 40, 29, 13, 75, 69

I say approximately because the prototype has altered, non-integer angles that the real props won’t have. The non-integer angles, if you care, are: 83.91, 39.86, 29.35, 12.53, 75.27, and 68.50. Students have been told to round to the nearest integer degree before processing the angles through the Return formulas.
