@Paul-Austen said in Latest python I2c module issue:

from OmegaExpansion import onionI2C

Just tried the following minimal workaround

opkg remove pyOnionI2C
opkg install pyOnionI2C_0.4-1_mipsel_24kc.ipk

and this gets rid of the import error

@Paul-Austen my mistake the download URL should be http://repo.onion.io/omega2/packages/onion/

Initially I reset the Omega2 to factory settings using the following from a serial console

firstboot -y
sync
reboot

After setting up the wifi I then copied the following files to flash via scp

pyOmegaExpansion_0.4-1_mipsel_24kc.ipk
pyOnionI2C_0.4-1_mipsel_24kc.ipk

and then ran

opkg install pyOmegaExpansion_0.4-1_mipsel_24kc.ipk
opkg install pyOnionI2C_0.4-1_mipsel_24kc.ipk

This did the trick.

However

opkg remove pyOmegaExpansion
opkg remove pyOnionI2C

Followed by

opkg install pyOmegaExpansion_0.4-1_mipsel_24kc.ipk
opkg install pyOnionI2C_0.4-1_mipsel_24kc.ipk

should do it.

I downloaded the two package files from
http://repo.onion.io/omega2/packages/packages

Not sure if this is the place to raise this but the latest pythonI2c module appears to have an issue.

I get

python
Python 2.7.13 (default, Sep 18 2017, 20:32:03)
[GCC 5.4.0] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
from OmegaExpansion import onionI2C
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: Error relocating /usr/lib/python2.7/OmegaExpansion/onionI2C.so: i2c_writeBufferRaw: symbol not found

The latest i2C packages appear to be broken

pyOmegaExpansion_0.5-1_mipsel_24kc.ipk
pyOnionI2C_0.5-1_mipsel_24kc.ipk

Have the problem I described. I dropped back to

pyOmegaExpansion_0.4-1_mipsel_24kc.ipk
pyOnionI2C_0.4-1_mipsel_24kc.ipk

And the problem went away.

I believe I know what the problem is. The latest i2C packages are broken

pyOmegaExpansion_0.5-1_mipsel_24kc.ipk
pyOnionI2C_0.5-1_mipsel_24kc.ipk

Have the problem I described. I dropped back to

pyOmegaExpansion_0.4-1_mipsel_24kc.ipk
pyOnionI2C_0.4-1_mipsel_24kc.ipk

And the problem went away.

I have been using the python i2c module and it's been working fine. However even if I start from factory default

E.G
firstboot -y
sync
reboot
wifisetup
opkg update
opkg install python
opkg install pyOnionI2C

I then get

root@Omega-E941:~# python
Python 2.7.13 (default, Sep 18 2017, 20:32:03)
[GCC 5.4.0] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

from OmegaExpansion import onionI2C
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: Error relocating /usr/lib/python2.7/OmegaExpansion/onionI2C.so: i2c_writeBufferRaw: symbol not found

If anyone has any idea's as to what may be the problem I'd appreciate it

Thanks

Hi,

Does anyone know how to read the WIFI RSSI level on an Omega 2 ?

I tried iwinfo but this returns unknown for the signal levels
