OpenPlotter and Raspy ¿3, 3+B?
#1
In the official documentation it's said that OpenPlotter is compatible with Raspberry Pi 3.

Would be better to say that it's compatible with Raspberry Pi 3B and 3B+?
We could understand that both are under "Raspberry Pi 3" but if we specified both it would be clearer.  

By the way, what about 2B?

Thanks.

ok, changed by:

Raspberry Pi 3B or 3B+ (Not RPi Zero or 1 compatible. RPi 2B will have some limitations)

OpenPlotter seems to be able to start on RPi 2B with Edimax WLAN.
What are the known limitations?
Updating OpenPlotter from the app fails with hostapd problems.
Can OpenPlotter be updated manually?

The hostapd fail that prevents OpenPlotter update from 1.0 to 1.2 is:

Code:

Job for hostapd.service failed because the control process exited with error code.
See "systemctl status hostapd.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.

OpenPlotter update problem is now solved after some googling.
sudo apt remove hostapd
reboot
openplotter update to 1.2 OK!
After some cups of coffee ja plenty of warnings and a reboot request I had OpenPlotter 1.2.
sudo apt install hostapd gives me the above error message. I need to study it more.

Open question is still: What are the known limitations for RPI 2B?

sorry for that, next version is coming and we have improved the update process to avoid these issues

The only known limitation of models 2 is performance.

As a side, I have noticed when you run 1.2 on a RPI2B, when using the local MQTT broker, the cpu usage goes up to 40% and stays there until you disconnect the publishers.
