Raspberry Pi 4 is out

[fhnt]

Unfortunately I don't have proper cable for connecting a monitor to the RPi.

Yes, my network is 2.4GHz. The router is quite old now (D-Link DIR-605L), but I didn't have any issues with the RPi Zero W. The RPi4 just replaces the RPi Zero W. No position or anything else changed.

My PC is running WIndows 10, and the OpenVPN running is on the RPi.

DHCP lease time is set at 1440 minutes.

As I said, my PC is with Windows, but I'm having same problems with my phone (Android 9, with JuiceSSH).

Now I put a range extender close to the RPi, connected the RPi to it and will share results in a couple of hours.
(EDIT: the issue is persistent. It's not affected at all from the range of the WiFi)

DHCP lease time is set at 1440 minutes

1440 / 60 = 1 day so it is entirely possible that the lease is running out during all this. Why not just dedicate an IP address to this Pi and not have to deal with the worry?

Neither Windows nor Android runs Bonjour by default. It might require some trickery to get this to behave.

Personally, I've had my own wifi quality go bad over time and it had zero to do with my own equipment; over that period of time my apartment neighbors had installed competing wifi zones (about 30 within reach). So sometimes it's just the landscape, so-to-speak. I had to install a pair of Orbi routers (from Netgear) and that sorted things out for me.

Try an Ethernet cable for a bit.

The RPi has a dedicated IP. I did that in the very beginning. It's assigned to the MAC address in the router.
If I assume I that the problem is with the router and the landscape, I don't have explanation why this doesn't happen to the RPi Zero W which was previously installed there.

Today I tried with clean install of Raspbian. And it's the same.

Will check how it's with a cable.

have you tried updated the Raspbian underneath the octoprint, I did a new build today and got a pre-release version of buster which really didn't like the wireless on the pi4

I ended up using a cable to get it sorted, then revert to wireless

I had to
put the SD card in a pi3b to fix it
apt -y update
that got an initial update but all sorts of things broke
sudo dpkg --configure -a
to fix a number of packages
then run the update again and I needed another command to fix that (apt-get --fix I think it was, it told you the command needed in the error)
then it finally ran the sudo apt-get update and the sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
then I could finally get the wireless to configure (remember pi3b can only see 2.4ghz wireless, pi4 can see both 2.4 and 5ghz wireless)
now the card is back in the pi4 4gb and running fine, far quicker and smoother running octopi

one other thing I noticed was with my ANET A8 with the factory firmware (yes I am aware of the lack of thermal runaway protection) if I plugged the USB cable to the printer into the blue USB 3 ports on the Pi4 it failed to boot until I moved the USB to one of the USB 2 ports

@bluecar1

Raspberry pi4 problem （solved）

[bluecar1]

thanks

I thought it may be power related, as the USB 3 ports can provide more power then the USB 2 ports

and mine has the USB C power issue (1 instead of 2 resistors in the detection circuit) so wouldn't surprise me if there weren't a few more USB bugs with the USB 3 ports

but plugging into the USB 2 ports works fine so is an easy fix instead of having to tape a fiddly bit inside a USB plug

my octoprint wifi works great no issue at all, but i put official 7 inch raspberry touch screen on RPi4 4gb. I want boot to desktop to load the browser but seen cant work at all.

i already install plugin "TouchUI" still cant work.

i try this command still cant work at all

1. sudo /home/pi/scripts/install-desktop
2. sudo raspi-config -> Boot Options -> automatically boot to GUI as pi user
3. sudo apt-get install lightdm

here is the image of scripts........

[PrintedWeezl]

Uhm no that aren't your images. maybe the last one ist but the others are from the user @Clbyrd77.
What is your deal !?

Are you sure your pi can reach the internet?
and the fix missing command is sudo apt-get install --fix-missing in your case

[daxzero]

yes, it connected to wifi.

[PrintedWeezl]

I tested one of the files that your pi can't reach and it works for me.

Just to be sure your pi can reach it too and there is another problem try this

wget http://raspbian.raspberrypi.org/raspbian/pool/main/i/initramfs-tools/initramfs-tools_0.130_all.deb

[daxzero]

Still not working see the image below.

Then come back to this.

[PrintedWeezl]

well you didn't paste the full link - you just entered the first part.
the full link is http://raspbian.raspberrypi.org/raspbian/pool/main/i/initramfs-tools/initramfs-tools_0.130_all.deb

[daxzero]

Still not working.

When I run sudo apt-get upgrade, I get errors that components are not found. I can complete the process with sudo apt-get install --fix-missing but this should not be necessary. I somenting messed up in the 0.17.0 build?

[PrintedWeezl]

try sudo apt-get update --allow-releaseinfo-change and test if it works afterwards

[William_Webb]

Well, that's a new one on me. So this build was made before Buster was officially released, I suppose.

Thanks, that fixed it.

[yellow-brick]

Is there a rough timeline for when the Raspberry Pi 4 will be officially supported by OctoPi? I know there are nightly builds already, but I'd like to wait for a stable image.

[daxzero]

is the webcam or raspberry pi camera supporting now?

[dman97]

Afaik 2019-06-20-octopi-buster-lite-0.17.0.img is the latest image.
Just update the os with sudo apt update && sudo apt -y upgrade and octoprint via the webinterface and you're up to date

Does running these commands update the firmware too? I want to install the firmware update that helps the Pi 4 run cooler.
