    Good Day All,

    What OS systems are currently being used on RBerry devices as I am looking to support them if possible.

    Any info would be great.

    Thank you,

    Hi Dale;

    What OS systems are currently being used on RBerry devices as I am
    looking to support them if possible.

    Any info would be great.

    Right now, on the Pi that's hosting PiBBS, I am running Dietpi 'bullseye'. I chose this because I wanted minimal overhead, so that my various projects
    would have as much resources as the Pi3B+ can provide.

    I also have a Pi4B hooked up to my bedroom TV, on which I run multiple OSes: PiOS, RetroPi, and OpenElec, depending on the activity.

    Cheers!

    I may be a little crazy, but I've got Gentoo going on a 400 as a bit of a test. (Have Raspberry Pi OS on another card as well)

    Here on a 3B+ just upgraded to Bullseye (Debian ?) from Buster (raspian or similar) but not sure it is for the better :)

    I do not this kit often far too slow for me even with a USB connected HDD.

    I successfully did an emerge world empty tree deep on a Pi 3. It took a
    while, but it worked just fine.

    I did have a chunk of steal sitting on the CPU as a large heat sink.

    It took multiple days to complete but it did so without any problem.

    Yeah, it's nice to see it work. I have been using distcc to utilize a more powerful machine, too. Seems to help to a degree.

    I got as far as getting a window manager up, but I have to do something better for a screen, as the 7" touch screen I use with it is less than ideal.

    It helps if you can offload compiling to a more-powerful box. Gentoo makes setting up cross-compiling toolchains easy, so you can qemu-chroot from an amd64 host into an aarch64 guest (for instance) to build for a Raspberry Pi
    3 or 4. Use the fast system to create binary packages which are then
    installed on the RPi. Depending on what you're building, it might still
    take a day or two to do a full rebuild, but that's better than the week or
    more it'll take on the RPi (and there are packages like Chromium that won't build on the Pi or will shred your swap trying due to insufficient RAM).

    (I also do something similar, but without the cross-compiling bit, to keep
    the Rock Pi X plugged into my TV up-to-date. The Ryzen 5 2600 in my server blows the doors off the Atom x5-Z8350 in the Rock Pi X.)

    I'd like to clarify I did the compiling on the Pi 3.

    Yes, I am aware of DistCC and the likes. But the point of my comment
    was that the Pi 3 is capable of doing it's own full emerge world empty tree.

    Support them for what? If you don't mind saying.

    Most of mine are still running vanilla 32 bit Raspbian Buster, but a
    couple of the Pi 4B's are running the 64 bit kernel with the 32 bit
    Raspbian user land, and a raspbian-nspawn-64 container.

    I did run 64 bit SUSE at one point, for 64 bit evaluation, before raspbian-nspawn-64 came out. A couple or older ones ran Libre Electric
    and Kodi, before I upgraded them, and standard Raspbian was able to play
    media as well.

    I haven't upgraded to Bullseye yet as I've got quite a few cameras using raspimjpeg which requires the old camera system rather than libcamera.
    Although it is possible reinstall the old system, which I'll have to try
    out on a spare Pi.

    Ironically I want to get a Sony starviz camera, and that's only
    supported by libcamera, so I need to find an alternative to raspimjpeg,
    as it doesn't look like it will be a quick job to upgrade that to use libcamera.

    Yes, mine is an -xM also. It is getting on a bit I agree, and I don't know where I will go when it eventually dies. Why do I prefer the RISCOS
    variant on a BB? A puzzling question ... Back in the 80's, as with many
    Acorn users, I went through many new computer upstarts before settling on
    a BBC A. That, perhaps, is why, in my early days in Self-Employment, I
    went through several cars before, eventually, settling for Land-Rover.
    Both Acorn and Land-Rover did a job that I required, and both I could understand, modify, and repair; and both I stuck with as they were
    upgraded. RISCOS in a Kinetic, and a LR in the last Series III was my sticking-point, the pinnacle of my satisfaction. The Kinetic died in a horrendous lightning strike which the LR ignored because it has minimal electronics, so the Kinetic was ultimately replaced by RISCOS on the
    Beagle, and it seems to fulfil my needs just as RISCOS always did.

    I'm sure that I didn't give RISCOS on a RPi much of a chance, but I felt
    locked out, just as I felt locked out of the computer variants played with
    in the 80's, and it seemed 'prettyfied'. Reliability and backward
    compatibility is important to me. Speed is not ... Purely personal
    observations ...

    Its purpose is to make it more likely for me to hear the doorbell when
    we are out of earshot of the real thing, e.g. when we're in the sun
    lounge with the doors closed, or when we're in the garden. It's an
    electronic bell with two receivers, the second of which is interfaced
    to the BB, which then notifies me via Pushover on my mobile phone.
    Most of the notifications arrive within 2 seconds, although there was
    one yesterday that took 20 minutes - which is of course completely
    useless for the purpose. Like I say, it's a minority. But then I
    also get notified when I'm out; equally useless, but who cares?

    I don't understand why you think it might be annoying. If someone
    rings the doorbell and I'm at home, I want to know - that's the point
    of a doorbell, after all. And if someone leaves a package at the
    door and buggers off, I'd rather bring it in before it gets rained on.

    One of these fine days I probably should get a doorbell, or knocker
    or something[2] - but there's something about the way the our six dogs go librarian poo when there's someone in the drive that's quite unmistakable
    and impossible to miss or ignore.

    [2] Actually there's a bell, but it's not hooked up in the fuse box cos I
    used the circuit for the shed (not shedde) and there's no button to press -
    cos the plasterer lost it.

    I still have a BB running RISC OS as my doorbell server.

    Curious about the doorbell - isn't it annoying in the case of non-visitors >> (posties etc.)?

    Its purpose is to make it more likely for me to hear the doorbell when
    we are out of earshot of the real thing, e.g. when we're in the sun
    lounge with the doors closed, or when we're in the garden. It's an electronic bell with two receivers, the second of which is interfaced
    to the BB, which then notifies me via Pushover on my mobile phone.
    Most of the notifications arrive within 2 seconds, although there was
    one yesterday that took 20 minutes - which is of course completely
    useless for the purpose. Like I say, it's a minority. But then I
    also get notified when I'm out; equally useless, but who cares?

    I don't understand why you think it might be annoying. If someone
    rings the doorbell and I'm at home, I want to know - that's the point
    of a doorbell, after all. And if someone leaves a package at the
    door and buggers off, I'd rather bring it in before it gets rained on.


    Sorry, at crossed purposes - I was thinking about motion detection, but yours is, as you say, connected to a physical push bell.

    I've been using Slackware ARM, installed via the SARPi project:

    https://sarpi.penthux.net/

    It works really well, especially for headless setups, and gives you
    virtually all of the functionality one would expect from a full and
    complete Slackware system.

    One of these fine days I probably should get a doorbell, or
    knocker
    or something[2] - but there's something about the way the our six dogs
    go librarian poo when there's someone in the drive that's quite
    unmistakable and impossible to miss or ignore.

    When a friend had a similar system I referred to it as the "Dog Bell" :-)

    Good Day All,

    What OS systems are currently being used on RBerry devices as I am
    looking to support them if possible.

    Any info would be great.

    Thank you,

    Dale

    Support them for what? If you don't mind saying.


    I have the InterMail mailer and now coming is InterPoint which are both going to be Multi-plaform. Will take a peek at the os choices for these tiny systems to see if it would be possible and have fun.

    I was going to try Andriod on the devices to see how well that worked

    Thanks for the info and feedback
