Topic: Raspberry pi 3?

So who's going to be the first person to see how well freelss runs on the new raspberry pi 3? It should theoretically be faster, right?

It should be faster.  I'm still trying to get my hands on one to test.

After seeing this post, and having ordered the kit I thought this would be a good challenge - and I have sort of succeeded in the task!

See my post on the challenges, but seems to be working well at the moment smile

I have began testing with the Raspberry Pi 3 and the results look great so far.  Unfortunately it's not compatible with the SD image for the Pi 2 and B+ so the upgrade isn't as simple as just plugging your current ATLAS 3D card into the Pi 3.  I'll keep you posted.

HI. Can someone give fact how much quicker pi3 is?
Are it's any idea to upgrade pi2/old model camera  to pi3/v2. Camera?  I have licensed version of software and heavy-duty aluminum scanner frame. I have also thinking to change those red laser to better green or blue but are this help anything?

Re: Raspberry pi 3?

Running FreeLSS on a Pi 3 and I am having the worst issues with Raspbian Pixel and the built-in wifi.  Despite being connected to a wireless network, I am unable to access by SSH or HTTP after a few minutes.  I also noticed that DNS was not behaving either, forcing me to "sudo dhclient -v wlan0".  If I go wired, it is not a problem (except for the later DNS issue).  I did read that the issue is due to IPv4 vs IPv6 being enabled 

I updated the firmware on the Pi and made sure that low power mode is disabled but no go.  If I go with the edimax I do not have any problem and can leave the scanner on for hours.

Has anyone encountered this problem ?

I also had issues running make autostart so I had to revert to running from a command line.  I read in the forum that this is a permissions error in the ./desktop folder.   Is there a straigtforward solution to this as well ?

Re: Raspberry pi 3?

Are you using the ATLAS 3D hardware or are you powering the Pi over USB?

Re: Raspberry pi 3?

Powering the Pi through the 5V pins with a ample power supply.  I am running the newest Raspbian release.

The following page looks like it describes the problem you are facing.  It shows how to prevent the Pi from taking the WiFi into power save mode.
