It is built against Raspbian 2017-03-02 (Release Notes)

Changes in the image

Note:
In 0.13.0 we promised new variant for more arm devices support. The has been a achieved with the new Armbian variant. With it, all the devices listed here support OctoPi, but since we didn't get a call for a specific device, we are not maintaining a build at the moment.

Print jobs crash with USB mouse and keyboard attached. This should be notated in description.

I have disconnected mouse and keyboard from Pi Zero W and all seems well...

@foosel Is this a no-go for the feature?
#336

@dbvandy What kind of mouse and keyboard and what kind of printer? I have not seen this behaviour in my own tests. Power issue? What does "Print jobs crash" mean, what happens exactly?

@guysoft #336 at least sounds like we need some kind of workaround for the current raspi-config behaviour, otherwise IMHO no-go. Will comment there.

Looks like some serious communication issues causing the stuttering, printer keeps requesting lines that look like they are sent ok. So either they become garbage on the line or when they arrive at the printer. So probably less of a CPU issue and more of a power issue (make sure the power supply provides 5V, 2.5A), or an overloaded bus maybe. Considering it's a wireless mouse, I wouldn't be too surprised actually if it's power and the dongle of the mouse is demanding too much, causing brown outs. Try leaving the mouse out of the equation. Currently running a test print against the image on a ZeroW, have a wireless keyboard-mouse-combo AND a mouse connected, as well as a pi camera and the printer itself. No communication errors. Power supply is this one, 5V, 2.5A.

I am not aware of a way to monitor the cpu processes on the pi

I'd recommend top, it's is already installed.

Side note: I'm still seeing the abysmal performance with regards to CPU load when the webcam tab is opened as already mentioned in #318. @guysoft Should we maybe add a "but not recommended" to the bit about support for the Zero W? I really have a bad feeling recommending this thing for running prints when the built-in wifi is used. Even a timelapse download could nuke prints with this kind of performance. Currently seeing 25% for kworker and 18% for irq/86-mmc1 (wifi handling) with traffic, and THAT certainly will cause stuttering.

I hope Guysoft's question "Is that a no-go for the feature?" #336 does not result in removal of the octopi-wpa-supplicant.txt feature. That feature is a major plus for those of us who need a pi to run on multiple networks and need to add new networks easily.

If we can't find a solution for the raspi-config issue though we'll at least need a big fat disclaimer in that file or we'll never hear the end of this issue (endless stream of tickets).

I guess we should also make sure that RC2 has a newer kernel - if one is available.

Tried both, official package is still <4.5, what you get via rpi-update is 4.9 but not recommended according to the link above.

Let's see what will be the state after the weekend.

New image is out, short summary of findings:

I suggest building RC2 against that new image.

@foosel Nighties are back, with the new image:

Should we make RC2 out of this?

When RC2 comes out, is it possible to update to this from within OctoPrint, or do I need to start fresh from that image? (I do have my OctoPrint update channel set to Devel RC).

@John-Mc Fresh image. You can move most of your OctoPrint preferences between images.

@guysoft don't see why not. Also sorry, currently out of commission (wisdom teeth extraction + cold or something, lovely combination), hence the delay in replying to this.

Hello, Im having an issue getting the PI v2 camera to work with this build. Not sure if its something Im missing or another issue all together. I have already tried the get update and get upgrade and my GPU memory is over the 128 min. It is a new camera and cable (which is installed correctly) but I believe its has to be a setting somewhere im missing. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I think you will always get that error with raspistill on OctoPi because the camera will be already used by mjpg-streamer.

The release from a week ago is working great on my RPi 3 with my D300VS printer and the obligatory Logitech C270.
Wireless performance is much improved.

Did an OctoPi 0.14rc2 ever come out? I thought I had seen mention of it, but can't find it - and the link to the nightly builds is not working for me.

I could force an OctoPrint update. Not sure you can do an OctoPi update that way. Pretty sure you have to install that from the new image.
