I am a linux noob and i have a noob question/request:

I got raspberry pi version B. I installed Raspbian distribution from NOOBS image to the 16GB card in the pi.
Wired and wireless network works fine, but i was not (yet) successfull in installing repetier to the pi.
Repetier website states that repetier needs Mono framework, but when i try to download MONO i get an error stating that not all packages are avaiable off the network. Is there a downloadable version or is there a certain software server i need to add to search path?

I am a linux noob, so treat me as such.
Thanks ahead.


I'm in the same boat as you...working through it using NOOBS 1.2.1, I'll post if I can get it running.

Are these 3 the only choices for raspberry pi model B? I'm a bit confused which one to use for the raspi.
I'm new to 3dprinting and still waiting for my solidoodle 2 pro model and raspberry pi model B, and I've never used a linux before but I really want the raspi combo for the SD2 to make it a standalone printer.

How is the pi connected to the sanguino? Does it connect like an ordinary laptop through the usb port? Ridiculously noob question, but had to ask. Thanks for the config!! Have to wait for my wifi adapter to arrive before I can do a full test, but got Repetier-Server up and running.


PCM81, All you need to do is download the archived, precompiled file off of the downloads section from http://www.repetier.com/repetier-server-download/, read the install.txt and copy/paste the commands into the terminal. I actually had problems installing the lastest NOOBS, so I went with Raspbian Weezer instead (whoo hoo I look just like Buddy Holly).

I imaged the Pi with NOOBS-Raspbian, installed repetier server and it all seems to work as expected. I may need to re-profile, it seems i am getting a bit too much extrusion, but i also changed fillament spool, so that may be the culprit. Mounted pi on the back of the doodle in clear case, powering it with cellphone wall charger from same UPS as i am powering the doodle.

Anyone else getting this error? I was in the middle of a print when this happened, and it caused my printer to pause intermittently.

Here is an example of the 3 configs that it comes with:

i anyone could give some instructions how to edit one of the existing printer profiles or create a new one.

Much appreciated! smile

Sorry , but because i am completely noob i need to know where i could find this solidoodle2.cfg file to change the values in order to make repetier-server function properly.

Thank you!


You need to either edit one of the existing printer profiles or create a new one - unfortunately I am not good enough with linux to tell you how to do either (I just muddled my way through).

I have tried powering the rpi from the sanguinololu, although it boots fine, you will run into issues printing.

I have not had issues with printing through the RPi, but I also power it with a USB micro cell phone charger.  You do have to make sure that if you shut the printer or PRi off that you disconnect the USB cable between the two, otherwise one will try to power the other through said cable.

I would like to see a more backend approach, with a client/server arrangement, similar to using repetier with a virtual USB connection, Now that I think of it, you could get away with just network USB solution with 2 USB ports on the far end, that way you can run a webcam and use a virtual serial port, and you could still use repetier-host the same as you would have before, no RPi needed. I did give the server a small go on my old Model B but it froze midway and started melting the prints.
I'm pretty sure there is a linux program that actually does do that netusb maybe?
Cheers
