Thanks, I'll give that a try as it seems by far to be the simplest of the options.

Ahh, I hadn't noticed that on a Raspberry Pi pins 3 and 5 are I2C bus 1 , 27 and 28 are I2C bus 0 . And that on the Fire3 this is reversed, i.e., pins 3 and 5 are I2C bus 0 , 27 and 28 are I2C bus 1 . Is there a reason for this change? Yes, I could rewire my robot but all of the Raspberry Pi compati...

Hi, I've managed to locate what the problem I'd been seeing was,which is basically that the I2C bus on the Fire3 uses bus 0 rather than bus 1 as the device default. This is not the norm on a Raspberry Pi or Arduino. When I plug an I2C device with address 77 into the bus I can see it show up on bus 0...

Hi, I just received my Fire3 in the post today and have successfully installed Ubuntu Xenial from the zip file, configured WiFi, etc. All is working fine. On idle it runs pretty hot at 64-65 degrees celcius, this with the default heat sink installed. When I run npi-config and try to enable I2C (or a...
