Success and failure of connection to SGPi by type of computer
Success and failure of connection to SGPi by type of computerEdit

From $1

    Connecting to the Raspberry Pi version of the sensorgnome has caused problems for
    some people in past versions.  Starting with the 2017-04-20 release, this page will collect
    status information.  Please send results (positive and negative) to the sensorgnomads
    mailing list, and I'll include them here.

    For sgpi.local working / not working, please record if iTunes (*) is installed on the computer.

      [but really, you shouldn't be using XP - it's a huge security risk]

     

     

    (*) iTunes?  Yes, it's relevant because iTunes might install Apple's bonjour zeroconf networking, which
    recognizes the advertisements sent out by the SG's avahi daemon, allowing .local adresses to work.

    (*) Bonjour printing services can be installed directly, without installing all of iTunes
