I updated RatOS via the web UI as one does... Had no issues and all components are showing up to date. Printer is still working via web UI, but on the touchscreen attached to the Pi, I get the error that my Python is not v3.8. How did that not get upgraded with the system? It is possible I did system updates last and something in Klipper is unhappy ( I assume klipper because the error says to check the klipper logs) from the time where it was upgraded and the system was not.
#Updated RatOS and now it complains my Python doesnt meet minimums (3.7 vs 3.8)

KlipperScreen is what's running on your screen, i don't know why they're requiring python 3.8 all of a sudden, will check.
Apparently they've warned people for months: https://github.com/KlipperScreen/KlipperScreen/commit/aa4603af69b7fd59b119d1a9d2ce6f9e8a99367f
How old is your installation? Which RatOS version are you on @sharp jungle ?
I'm asking since RatOS 2.0 contains python 3.9 so i'm assuming you're on the long discontinued RatOS v1?
sharp jungle
Yep, still v1.2
I dont use the print that much lately, so I havent kept up
I have a niche install (I assume) with an SKR Pro v1.2 and e3d Hemera, so wouldnt be surprised if its no longer supported
Seems like everyone is using an Octopus and a Mosquito of some form
but thank you for all that info you provided

No, mosquito is NOT recommended
sharp jungle
yeah, I am way out of date
well good news for me, the vCore 3.1 upgrade I bought included the Rapido Pro, so I'm good on that part 😆
Maybe this forces me to do the upgrade finally.
geez... just finding out there's a vCore 4... 🤦♂️
sharp jungle
Maybe I should add an SKRat to my parts list
would save me the cost of buying the U2C canbus module

You won’t need this regardless of what you’re running. SKRat needs a toolboard to make up enough drivers for the v-core though.

When I bought the 3.1 upgrade kit I included the EBB
sharp jungle
but I also need the U2C board, no?
wind python
Slap on RatOS 2.1-RC1 and you’ll be running in no time
wind python
but I also need the U2C board, no?
Nooe
U2C is a usb to CAN board. We don’t do CAN around here.
sharp jungle
well now I am confused AF 😆
wind python
Usb from pi to skr pro. Usb from pi to ebb
That’s all you need
RatOS 2.1-RC1 takes care of the rest
sharp jungle
oh.. nice.. I guess that explains why U2C isnt part of the options for the upgrade
wind python
Yes
sharp jungle
thank you for the clarification
If I may ask, why is CAN "forbidden"?
every stupid EBB video on YouTube seems to want to use it
sharp jungle
Never mind.. I just read the blog post on how CAN doesn’t work on RatOS and how its a piece of crap

Hahaha, it's not crap, it's just old and made for a completely different usecase.
It's a 41 year old protocol. I don't know who thought that was a great idea for consumer 3d printers.
