- Crowsnest v5 (Pynest) shipped by default

Major release, so we recommend a fresh flash.

🚀 MainsailOS v2.2.2 is out now!

A small but important maintenance release is here:

🛠️ Fixed a CANBUS issue introduced by the new Raspberry Pi Kernel v6.12.47

📦 Updated base image paths to use oldstable (Bookworm) to keep builds stable and compatible.

💡 If you’re wondering what happened to v2.2.1 — that one didn’t make it past internal testing due to a base image config issue. Fixed now! ✅

#MainsailOS #RaspberryPi #3DPrinting #Klipper #SBC @3dprinting

Day one of my #Klipper journey - Raspberry Pi built and imaged with #MainsailOS. Tomorrow I will thoroughly dust the old Ender 5 Pro I've inherited and install the leveler. #3dprinting

Just finished installing #Klipper and #MainsailOS on my Ender-3 v2 with a CR Touch and a Sprite Pro extruder.

Next step is calibration 😅

I used the files here https://github.com/LeeOtts/Ender3v2-Klipper-Configs

Ok, now I'm doing this #klipper thing the hard way after all. Installed #MainsailOS on a #RaspberryPi 3B, generated the firmware for the S1 Pro and managed to flash it after 10 attempts. Mounted an S2DW to configure input shaping (had to generate firmware for that too - it has a RasPi 2040 chip onboard), leveled the bed and set up a webcam for time-lapses. Not too bad for one long evening! Now I just need to tweak everything so I can reap the speed benefits of Klipper!

#3dprinter #ender3s1pro

Ein #Creality #SonicPad für 99,99€? Ich könnte fast schwach werden! Da hätte man #Klipper und ein Display in einem schönen Gehäuse.

Andererseits könnte ich auch auf das fette Display verzichten und bspw. #MainsailOS auf einem vorhandenen Raspberry PI installieren. Das wäre vermutlich die vernünftige Entscheidung.

Also, bin ich jetzt mal vernünftig oder lieber unvernünftig?

#3ddruck

I chose #Raspbian OS lite to get a fresh, fast, and clean #RadpberryPi. It was not only recommended, but I wanted to use #KIAUH ratger than using #MainsailOS.

This gave me more storage space, and I also knew what was already installed.

This also solved one of my problems when I used #Klipper with #Octoprint and #OctoKlipper.

I had a "mcu error," which I never could get a solution for. I had to restart my printer and Klipper repeatedly until they finally would connect.

This was solved by following the #Mainsail and #KIAUH docs and installing the Raspberry Pi MCU firmware.

These problems are now solved.

And damn, is this blazing fast.

Although I did clean my fan and heatsink and decided to #overclock my Raspberry Pi, the UI is so responsive I can live without my printer screen.

@3dprinting #3dprinting

Today we released the first #MainsailOS with multi-SBC support. We added @armbian support in our workflow and added images for #OrangePi Zero 2, 3 LTS and 4 LTS.

#3dprinting #klipper #mainsail

New tests SBCs arrived. Let's see how well we can support these SBCs.

#klipper #mainsail #mainsailOS #3dprinting #librecomputer #lepotato

We found a bug in #MainsailOS. The WIFI power management was not deactivated in v1.0.0, which can result in WIFI issues. That's why we have just #MainsailOS v1.0.1.

This error can lead to problems for some. But we still recommend everyone apply the patch to fix #MainsailOS.

How to fix it?
Run: curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mainsail-crew/MainsailOS/develop/patches/patch.sh | bash

This will also bump your #MainsailOS to v1.0.1 and should be visible in the System Panel in #Mainsail.

#klipper #3dprinting

@phranck I switched back from #MainsailOS & #Klipper to OctoPrint and they Jyers Firmware. Didn't see an advantage in Klipper for me and would have to do a whole bunch of tuning and configuration again to get to the same convenience I have with #OctoPrint
