Raspberry PI - 2
#11
I got one of these raspberry pi's in a date center and, aside from a few bugs in mcserver itself it runs it quite nicely. Tps seems a little low when you get a flood of users logging in at once, but after a few seconds it gets back to running at a solid 20tps, even with a small ween server running as well haha. The new CPU is amazing compared to the old pi.

Now just to get a few bugs fixed up like the crashing issue mcserver would be perfect. I've also got two more of these pi's coming on backorder so I can experiment A bit more then.

When you plug it in what do you get from lsusb?

On my PI B+ I get this:
Code:
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0424:9514 Standard Microsystems Corp.
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0424:ec00 Standard Microsystems Corp.
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 7392:7811 Edimax Technology Co., Ltd EW-7811Un 802.11n Wireless Adapter [Realtek RTL8188CUS]

I create a file named /etc/modprobe.d/8192cu.conf with the line:
Code:
options 8192cu rtw_power_mgnt=0 rtw_enusbss=0
So that it wouldn't sleep.

My /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf file looks like this:
Code:
ctrl_interface=DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=netdev
update_config=1

network={
        ssid="PLANETX.EXT"
        psk="secret stuff here"
        proto=RSN
        key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
        pairwise=CCMP
        auth_alg=OPEN
}

My /etc/network/interfaces looks like this:
Code:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet manual
wpa-roam /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
iface default inet dhcp

I got that Edimax WiFi dongle to work with every Linux distro I've tried, plug and play. :/

Although it randomly died on me 4 days later. Can't figure out why to this day.

The only trouble I had was turning off the power saving feature. My Pis are all headless.

Update:

Finally got the time to put raspy on one of the PI2s. I put all the junk I normally put on my Ubuntu dev boxes.

From the time I did the initial git clone to the time I got MCS running on my PI2 it was 1 hour 12 minutes. This included doing the required g++4.8 stupid pet trick after the clone (I was tired and forgot to do it before) and taking a few breaks for wine before finally running 'make' and letting it go.

Overviewer is next.
