Title: Need RPi3 tester
Post by: bmarkus on March 01, 2016, 12:44:57 AM: Hi,

looking for RPi3 testers. Let me know if you have a Raspberry Pi 3 board and willing to help in testing piCore.

My zero should deliver today, and I just ordered a rpi3....looks like they have not quite arrived at the US warehouses yet.

I ordered it on Monday night, picked it up on Tuesday.

I checked at the post office for the zero, and the result was zero. Lost in post!

Post by: Spaigy on March 02, 2016, 02:34:21 AM: Hi

New to these parts but have been playing a lot recently with an RPi2 and piCore - building a embedded network device based around the pi - Router / Captive Portal / VPN type thing.

Happy to assist and test on the RPi3 (mine has just arrived) - I will probably move over to the Pi3 hardware shortly anyway.

Cheers

Craig

Post by: bmarkus on March 04, 2016, 12:38:31 AM: piCore 7.1beta1 base built on 4.1.18 kernel works fine on RPi1 and RPi2. Will make SD card image and few basic kernel module tcz's. It will be available for public testing in few days.
Title: Re: Need RPi3 tester
Post by: jgrulich on March 04, 2016, 10:43:23 AM: Hi Béla,

count with me too from today. It works well with piCore-7.0, very-little bit faster than RPi 2.
Guess that the first point will be to bring the build-in wifi working. Bluetooth is not important so far.
I have all the buses enabled, but didn't found how it is connected, It doesn't appear in the dmesg. Strange.
Title: Re: Need RPi3 tester
Post by: jgrulich on March 04, 2016, 12:33:09 PM: I've tested the Rasbian Jessie and the wifi and bluetooth are supported by the kernel itself.
It's exactly the same as for USB and LAN chip. No overlay needed.
Title: Re: Need RPi3 tester
Post by: bmarkus on March 05, 2016, 12:11:22 AM: jgrulich@

When I configured 4.1.18 kernel no any new WiFi or Bluetooth module appeared, so it must be already in earlier.

Canyou tell me which modules are used for them in Raspbian?

Post by: bmarkus on March 07, 2016, 12:57:01 AM: Thanks. It looks OK, these modules are in the relevant TCZ extensions, must work. When it verified question is whether we want to add them to the base or keep in a TCZ.

Why update kernel modules?

I will create a firmware tcz as soon as someone send the firmware and confirms it works with RPi3. I can't test, no RPi3 in hand.

The on-board wifi seems to work OK. Thanks for the information.

Any chance of including the firmware for the "official" RPF USB wifi adaptor in the same extension?
tce.installed/firmware-brcmwifi is just copied from the other USB adpator firmware.

Here are my notes.

I've tested Rasbian 4.1.18 and latest 4.1.19 and both seems to work the same way. Strange is that there is ONLY one led0 control, means that the RED one can't be controlled, only the GREEN one can. The control capabilities are significantly extended, much more triggers are available.
