ofxPiMapper on Raspberry Pi 3B+ - HELP: How to?? #149

Closed massimilianoC closed 6 years ago

massimilianoC commented 6 years ago

Hi, I'm trying to install oxfPiMapper on the new Raspberry Pi 3 B +... is it possible? I have problems with OpenFrameworks, gcc 6 and the latest Raspbian release. Any suggestion? Thanks!

Download the latest available Raspbian Jessie here: http://downloads.raspberrypi.org/raspbian_lite/images/raspbian_lite-2017-07-05/

And then follow the openFrameworks guide on installing it on the Raspberry Pi (note that everywhere you see of_v0.9.8 you should replace it with of_v0.10.0 as it is the latest version). https://openframeworks.cc/setup/raspberrypi/raspberry-pi-getting-started/

Then clone ofxPiMapper (and dependencies) to compile the examples.

Another way is to download an image file from GitHub releases page, or you can also access it through ofxpimapper.com

I got a Pi 3 B+ and I see where is the issue. It does work with latest Raspbian Stretch only. Hold on, will upgrade the images. Otherwise you have to install things from scratch yourself which means

I solved installing the image on a Raspberry 3 B and then upgrading the bootloader for the 3B+, so I can load the SD into a 3B+ and it's working really fine!

Can you share details on how you upgraded the bootloader?

massimilianoC commented 6 years ago

Sure! I followed this steps on StackExchange:

You'll need to do this first step on a pi3 (not plus): Update the bootloader: sudo rpi-update ef7621d91cb58ccc856c3c17ddda28685edd23f3 After that the card will then boot on pi 3B+, but without WiFi wget https://archive.raspberrypi.org/debian/pool/main/f/firmware-nonfree/firmware-brcm80211_20161130-3+rpt3_all.deb sudo dpkg -i firmware-brcm80211_20161130-3+rpt3_all.deb Now you should have a Jessie install that works on 3B+ including WiFi support.

Hope it's helpful!

It is useful indeed. The way I just got it working was to reinstall things from scratch. Took some time though. But the ultimate solution is to automate this on my server. Just takes some time to tweak all the details. Soon... : ]
