GY-GPS6MV2 on Pwnagotchi

With the current available latest Release of Pwnagotchi, v1.5.3, it’s not possible to use the UART (TC / RX) GPIOs on a Raspberry PI. Thats because of the wrong compiled Waveshare V2 Display Driver.

You have to recompile it as root with a different header file.

cd /usr/local/src/gratis/
make rpi-remove PANEL_VERSION=V231_G2
make rpi-clean PANEL_VERSION=V231_G2
make rpi PANEL_VERSION=V231_G2 EPD_IO=epd_io_free_uart.h
make rpi-install PANEL_VERSION=V231_G2 EPD_IO=epd_io_free_uart.h

After installing the new driver, reboot and your UART Pins should be available again.

Ender 5, SKR Mini E3, BLTouch, Octoprint (+512k)

For those, with that combination at home and searched for a simple and structured setup without many visible cables floating around: Thats for you!

I’ve integrated the RPI (3b), the power supply for it (230v AC to 5v DC 2A) and a 24v to 5v buck converter in the stock housing of the ender 5, as a bonus without a USB cable outside 😉
