I see in today's news that there is a new version of Raspberry Pi OS, Rasperrian Stretch, or something like that. Wondering if this will have any adverse affect on the plugin.

If you don't use it likely not..
I strongly suggest not to use v.0 of anything.
Anyway that happens every year .. will test when I am back home.

Just looking at the description for Debian stretch.
Userid pi can not switch on sudo without password.
And pi is not the default id.

That will need some work.

Thanks for the look Karl. I suspected the login/SUDO stuff would be a problem.

It matters not to me right now because I've yet to implement this plugin. I've been gathering the needed hardware (pi's and beacons) for a while. Just haven't had time to pull it all together so far.

Just use the current posted sd Image.

Jessie will be supported for some several months and the plugin does not require any facing things anyway.

Appreciate you blazing the trail. Please let us know your experiences.

another update on raspberry from jessie to stretch (debian versions)

it seems to work now.. some of the changes:

the output format of ifconfig has changed

from

Code: Select all

        TX errors 0  dropped 0 overruns 0  carrier 0  collisions 0


so looking for "etho " has to also look for "eth0:" and
"inet addr: " changes to "inet "

and
"HWaddr b8:27:eb:1b:1f:50" => "ether b8:27:eb:1b:1f:50"

don't know why that was necessary .. or what the benefit is ..


still want to let it run for some days before I post the "stretch" version.
