Running on Pi Zero 2 W?
-
my pi zero 2w was delivered today and I’m really surprised about the good performance.
Tested 2 apps:
- mm as docker setup
- motioneye with google drive upload (also docker)
Both worked out of the box and felt not slower as on my old pi 3b.
-
@karsten13 memory is a little slower than PI3b… but not too terrible
see benchmarks from prior post -
I got my Pi Zero2W today and it runs out of the box with the MagiceMirrorOS distrobution.
-
Those that have MM running on pi02w, what modules do you have running? I tried in vain to get it running on my pi0w, but when I started adding weather/calendar/background photo etc it failed. The modules I need:
- Photos
- Google Calendar
- Todoist
- Weather Forecast
- (nice to have) Spotify ‘now playing’
- (nice to have) Moon Phases
Is it possible to have these on the zero 2? Or do I need to wait until like June to get the pi 4.
-
@laurafox08 yes, those should be fine. no real cpu hogs there. still shorter on memory, so make a bigger swap file
like pi3.
