@crispyoz Outstanding! Congrats! --Bill

I am desperately seeking a good SBC with BT 5.1 (not 5.0), for the location capabilities https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bluetooth#Bluetooth_5.1 https://www.fierceelectronics.com/components/bluetooth-5-1-refines-location-accuracy etc

@Lazar-Demin @György-Farkas thanks, I was starting to think I was stupid. This explains some inconsistent outcomes I was experiencing.

@Douglas-Kryder thank you, I'll give that a try, maybe order a few different ones and see how they each perform.

@György-Farkas #include "include/ledutils.h" #include "include/gpiomux.h" #include "include/gpio.h" void init_multi_led(){ // set GPIO to muxing so we can control the multi-colour LED gpiomux_mmap_open(); // int mux_result = gpiomux_set("uart2", "pwm23"); int mux_result = gpiomux_set("pwm0", "pwm"); syslog(LOG_INFO, "GPIO Mux returned %d", mux_result); gpiomux_mmap_close(); multi_led_fd = open("/dev/ledchain0", O_RDWR); }

@György-Farkas Thank you!

@crispyoz UCI defaults is a special directory where you can drop scripts to do initial device setups or configurations on first boot.

@György-Farkas yes I started experimenting with a LED strip I have which uses the WS2812B LED. Dimming these things smoothly is my current challenge.

If you want something more OS independent you might look at the reported memory, since there seem to be differences (64, 128, or 512) - see /proc/meminfo or similar

Thank guys I took a look at the note and ordered a few different units to test. My preference is really to have 5GHz built into the the Pro or a version of the Pro. Purely from a mechanical point of view, my IoT device exposed the mini-usb port on my case so users can power the device, this would mean I have to also expose the USB-A port with the 5GHz dongle which looks pretty messy and I know users will unplug it or fiddle with it and then complain they have no network connectivity. Alternatively I would need to redesign my case to move the Omega away from the side of my case and use a short mini-usb case mounted port. Either way it's messy.

I've explored https (ssl) on nginx, uhttpd, and lighttpd. I've only had success with lighttpd. Your best bet is to use that instead of nginx.

Thanks Gyorgy, That worked for me. I wish the Omega OLED expansion was better designed because the display sits level with the top of the soldered pins making it impossible to embed the module in a casing.

Thanks everyone for the replies. I have been using the genuine Onion OLED. I found he issue, the connector seems to have an issue. If I jiggle it, it will start working, then stop working. I tested on 3 different OLEDs and I get the same behaviour so it's definitely my 2S+. I have more on order so hopefully I'll be ok once they arrive.

Thank you Lazar, easy when you can find the correct docs

Daniel that is an interesting idea, but I expect it will quite slow given the overhead. I'm currently building the the LEDE system on the docker image running on my Surface 4, i7, 16GB, Windows 10 Pro 64Bit the build has been running for about 18 hours and still has not completed. The same build on the same machine but running Ubuntu 17 on VMWare Workstation Pro 15, builds in about 2 hours.
