Support Raspberry Pi 2 with MoOde 9 - Sander - 06-15-2024

Couldn't find a discussion on this, so I thought I'd just ask.

I have a Raspberry Pi 2B with an IQaudIO Pi-DAC+ running 8.3.9.
Seeing that MoOde 9 does not have an image for the 2B yet, I would appreciate it if this could be made available. The hardware itself is not scrap yet and an upgrade to a RPi 3 is still around € 40.

Is there any chance that MoOde 9 could be made available for the RPi 2B?


RE: Support Raspberry Pi 2 with MoOde 9 - Tim Curtis - 06-15-2024

Not possible due to lack of project manpower. Generating a 32-bit image requires that all the packages in our CS repo are built and maintained for both 32b and 64b architectures. Just maintaining 64b architecture packages takes a significant amount of time and effort, so basically double that.

But who knows, maybe a dev somewhere will join the project and volunteer to to take on the 32-bit builds. I'll be happy to help out. :-)

I purchased a RPi 3B and moved the HAT to the new device.
After 2 attempts the config restore worked (the first one never finished but I hadn't enabled SSH so could not get to the logfile). I still had to set the correct default audio advice afterwards, but the other settings have been transferred fine!

Hi,

I run the Pi1B with 512 MB exclusively for nostalgic reasons (I own a Pi4B also). I used the last moOde9 builder with 32bit support to upgrade to Bookworm. It's a dirty image where builders step3 had been skipped and the package dependencies had to be solved by hand afterwards (changing between moOde8 and moOde9 sources). I haven't checked all moOde's functions, but internetradio and upnp-stuff have been running well here for ~6 months. Very dirty but works rocksolid. 
(I can see your eyes rollin'  Big Grin, but I love my 1B)

For cosmetic reasons, I checked for the incorrect memory size displayed (256MB instead of 512MB). The 1B has the old revision code. 
Code:
cat /proc/cpuinfo | awk -F': ' '/Revision/ {print $2}'
000e

My question is: Why is the revision-code 'and'-combined in the pirev.py-script with 0x17?
Code:
old_rev = OLD_REVISION_CODES[code&0x17]
In my case the code-variable has '14' ('0xe') stored in it. That is right and points to the right pi-model.
After the 'and'-combined with '0x17' the old_rev becomes to '6' and points to the wrong model.

That's a good question. I don't recall why that was done.

Your best bet is prolly to just edit the code and remove it.


RE: Support Raspberry Pi 2 with MoOde 9 - TheOldPresbyope - 09-15-2024

Probably should have masked with 0x1F instead of 0x17?


RE: Support Raspberry Pi 2 with MoOde 9 - Prince - 09-15-2024

Of course 0x1F will do the trick. Thank you both, now I can sleep well tonight.  Big Grin

Looking at the code I don't think &0x17 may be a bug and is not actually needed.

Having now had a chance to read both the code and the RPF documentation, I agree. The bit masking should be unnecessary...but it's up to @Prince to confirm. I have no early models to test with

You can simulate the codes using the python cli but I actually tested earlier today using my Pi-1B and no issues :-)
