Just added start_x=1 to the config.txt and then updated to 4.19.55. And now the system boots. The start sentences text at the startup however are now rather big. Putting the start_x=1 on a other location in the config.txt does not seem to help. The final working of the system with small text worked ...
Just updated the kernel with rpi-update. I had allready version 4.19.50. Now there is another update called 4.19.50. After the updating the Pi 3b+ did not start. This is the first time an update does not work. Tried it with another SD card copy. Same result, Pi did not start after the kernel update....
Updated to the latest kernel version to 4.19.25. But then my wireless access point is no longer working. No idea how to fix this. Back to kernel 4.14.98-v7 and then I works well as before.
Kernel 4.19 works very well, except this problem with the Wifi. Was is missing here ?
Some more information of my use as a marine chartplotter. Kernel version 4.14.87 V7 works very good in combination with the VC4 OpenGL driver. However upgrading to kernel 4.14.89 some of the old problems re-occur. Chart lock-ups. Locking up the system. Pi-clone not working well. Switching back to ke...
I'am using the VC4 driver as seen via rpi-config. No idea which version that it is. Systems works now so well, with a swap partition also installed., that I consider it as my daily internet system. It runs not only the marine chartplotter system, but also Libreoffice with the Cups printer system. In...
Just tried the Raspex 64 bits ARM version based on Ubuntu Cosmic 1810 running on my RPI 3B+ Kernel version is 4.14.76-V8+ Installed the vc4 OpenGL driver (can be done also with rpi-config). And can report that this setup works very well and is very fast. Running here for more then 24 hours. It seems...
Perhaps the VC4 driver is improved, but I cannot find the source of for it. After some longer use as a marine navigation chart plotter. The present OpenGL VC4 driver in combination with the latest kernel 4.14.73 works perfect with fast screen movements. RPI3 B+ is running on OpenPlotter software bas...
Now I have been using the latest kernel 4.14.72 plus OpenGL VC4 driver on and OpenGL setting in my marine chart plotter OpenCPN also on. But this time for a longer test on board. Works perfect with very fast OpenGL screen movements. System is now running more then 48 hours with GPS/AIS connected and...
Just tried the kernel 4.14.72 and can report that it works faster again and now without video problems.
All is running very well. What a progress since the early days of the RPI. The software seems more important then the hardware in the performance of the RPI.
Did some more trials with kernel .71. It is working fast and without problems in the default window setting of my Chartplotter navigation system. with OpenGL on. The before reported errors in .71 appear only If I change the window frame to another format. Done by pulling at the window frame corner. ...
I'am sorry to inform that the kernel 4.14.71 gives OpenGL screen errors with zooming in-out with my Marine Navigation system. After some movements on the screen the system locks-up. That is not the case with kernel version 4.14.70 and the other upgrades I'am now back to 4.14.70. This version is work...
Latest kernel update to 4.14.69-V7+ is now running for several hours in combination with the marine chartplotter software OpenCPN.. No more lock-ups. Also tried Piclone, does work correctly. Problems with leaked memory ? Seems be solved. All is running with the VC4 driver on. Thanks for the efforts....
I remeber seeing an update of Piclone about 5-6 months ago. Result is a better performance. Interesting is also that Piclone can copy 16 GB tot 32 GB and visa versa. You cannot do that with an image of your system with DD. Sometimes the image made is larger then the SD I like to use as a copy medium...
If it works well with kernel 4.14.62, the conclusion must be it is a kernel problem and not an Piclone issue. With the other kernel versions I also had problems with locking up of the system after some time idle. Screen errors. If kernel 4.14.70 is available I will certainly give it a try. Piclone i...
After doing the latest updates, with the exception of the kernel update., system is running very well. Kernel is now 4.14.62. No lockups. System is now running for about 4 hours. Raspian Stretch, VC4 driver on and OpenGL in the plotter software also on. Fast screen movement and no screen problems.We...
Kernels 4.14.68 and 67 gave memory leaks and locks-up with our marine navigation systems. Now with the latest version 4.14.69 these seem to be solved. Only a small problem occurs. Piclone does no longer work well. I have to revert to kernel 4.14.62 for using the Piclone. With this kernel it works wi...
