Change Log
03-Feb-2021 **Version 4.1.4** - Available for download and upgrade.
Add in the APRSGateway, this is the start of the move to a single
daemon for communicating with aprs.fi, in the past every
gateway process would talk to aprs.fi on its own, this
should help reduce the load on aprs.fi servers too.
Update Nags - they are nags, no doubt, but think of them more like
a nudge to tell you when there is a new version to upgrade
to, and of course once you are at the current version, no
more nagging :).
The AutoAP feature, when triggered in the pre-configuration mode
so when you booted your Pi-Star for the very first time,
the AP will come up called 'Pi-Star-Setup' and will
have NO security set, no PSK etc to make it easy to connect.
WHY - to make the setup simple, and it fits well with the
captive portal setup that directs you straight to the config
page. On the dashboard you can now set the PSK for the AutoAP
and when you do that will enable WPA2 at the same time.
07-Dec-2020 **Version 4.1.3** - Available as an upgrade.
Randomise the daily housekeeping witin a 2 hour window.
This should help reduce the very spikey server load seen
on the update server, and stop users getting DMR ID only
on the dashboard if the Pi was un-able to download the
updated DMR database.
20-May-2020 **Version 4.1.2** - Available for download, and as an upgrade.
Fixed up some Raspbian services that were complaining on every boot,
This was the rfkill service and the exim MTA. Both were
broken, probably since the move to Raspian Buster, so this
is housekeeping.
Added the MobileGPS service, this is a service for using USB GPS
dongles to update the position information in MMDVMHost
and YSFGateway. Support in ircDDBGateway will follow soon.
Similar to the housekeeping above, some other minor changes in relation
to the migration to Buster, this time in /boot/config.txt.
This brings our version closer in-line with the OEM version
and removes/renames some features in line with the upstream
changes.
Captive-Portal, this brings better support for configuraton via the
on-board AutoAP feature.
02-May-2020 **Version 4.1.1** - Available as an upgrade only (images coming
soon...) This version adds some missing WiFi drivers, the version
upgrade is actually very small in this case, however at the same time
I also released a lot of other updates / upgrades to the system.
YSF2DMR/YSF2P25/YSF2NXDN/DMR2YSF - all of the cross-over modes that
include YSF functionality have been mis-behaving on some new
Yaesu Radios, looks like Yaesu require some additional fields
in the YSF headder. Credit for fixing this goes to Douglas
AD8DP for writing a patch for DMR2YSF, I was able to work up
some patches for the YSF2xxx modes based on his work.
YSF Link Manager - After a conversation with Jonathan (G4KLX) he very
kindly added remote control support into the gateway apps
such that the target can be controlled from the command line.
So now we have a working YSF Link manager that can swap the
active target without needing to restart the serivce - nice.
DMRGateway - Upgraded to the current release, this includes Dynamic TG
re-writing for you to experiment with.
26-Mar-2020 **Version 4.1.0** - Available for download from today, version
4.1.0 is available for Raspberry Pi hardware. All the Pi-Star features
you know and love, plus a new operating system, moving Pi-Star to the
the newer 'Buster' OS.
4.1.0 has the most up-to-date versions of all of the software used for
digital comms, including some customised versions in some cases
including DMR2YSF cross-over code that should help those users
using reflectors that link back to WiresX.
Cross-Over modes are generally better in Pi-Star 4.1.x and have much
improved code, making it possible to drive the YSF platform
from the radio, such that when you use a YSF2xxx cross-over
mode, the commands are properly passed into the sub mode.
For example using YSF2DMR, you can choose the YSF2DMR mode
from your Yaesu radio, and then choose the talk group and link
to it. This makes using these cross-over modes a joy rather
than a hastle.
The move to 'Buster' has been painfull, issues with time sync
and WiFi and Pi4 hardware support was troublesome, however
every cloud has a silver lining and the lessons we learned here
will be crucial to Pi-Star versions in the future.
11-Jan-2019 **Version 4.0.0-RC2** - Available at the Beta download location
OS changed to Raspbian Stretch (from Jesse).
Updating the base OS brings better support for a few things, and
some minor challenges too, but it should look / feel and work just
the same way it always did.
Image auto expand - the first time you boot a fresh image, it will auto
expand the file system, so that you dont have to, it all happens
pretty quickly, so much so that you might not even notice.
NTP Support Improved
NTP support has been improved, Pi-Star should do a much improved
job of jumping to the correct time after boot up, and staying
on time correctly.
Current DStarRepeater / ircDDBGateway software, keeping Pi-Star close to
the bleeding edge for these platforms, including terminal support
for Icom radios that support it.
Unified image for all models of Raspberry Pi Foundation hardware, finally
bringing back the single image for all devices again, and taking
the Raspberry Pi 3B+ out of beta, also adding in support for the
Raspberry Pi 3A+ too.
Improved screen when booting up, its now more obvious that you should
not be using the console to interact with the Pi. I hope that
doing that will help first time users see what to do.
Additional hardening to nginx to stop it being broken by OS updates.
09-Jan-2019 **Version 3.4.17**
Service startup timers tweeked to improve (reduce) boot time.
Already available as an upgrade, images coming soon.
Odroid XU4 gets a new kernel
NanoPi Neo gets a new kernel and improved GPIO support.
Orange Pi Zero gets a new kernel and improved GPIO support.
27-Dec-2018 **Version 3.4.16 - Respin**
Pre-Updated with the most recent changes.
16-Dec-2018 **Version 3.4.16 - Respin**
Updated to the current dashboard release, minor bug fixes, current binaries
current OS updates / patches etc.
10-Aug-2018 **Version 3.4.16**
Adding POCSAG paging support to Pi-Star, while we look at paging as an old
technology today, the one-way nature of paging still has a use
today. This release has been delayed while we properly fixed up the
system and removed a few bugs - including an issue recently found
with the Auto_AP function (now resolved).
29-May-2018 **Version 3.4.15**
Adding DMR2NXDN - with this release DMR2NXDN is now available to use on Pi-Star
this brings the cross mode from DMR on the RF side to NXDN on the
network.
28-May-2018 **Version 3.4.14**
Adding DMR2YSF - with this release DMR2YSF is now available to use on Pi-Star
this brings the cross mode from DMR on the RF side to YSF on the
network.
23-May-2018 **Version 3.4.13 - Images**
While we have released 3.4.12/3.4.13 as upgrades, we have held off making
images for a while, this was mostly to allow the new features to
mature a little before pushing them out. So what's new....
Many new features have been added, many fixes to existing parts of the
system too. Full integration of YSF2DMR, YSF2NXDN and YSF2P25.
These are not transcoding, more re-wrapping the voice data, this
allows for a YSF radio to be able to use DMR, NXDN and P25 (P25
requires your YSF radio to be set to VW mode, while everything
else on YSF requires DN mode).
Full NXDN Gateway support arrived in 3.4.12, previously Pi-Star was limited
to the single initial 65000 test reflector, that has since become
WorldWide for NDXN, but from here on we have the full complement
of available NXDN gateways.
uPNP control has been added so that you can turn OFF uPNP, it has been on by
default since the start of the Pi-Star project, but finally you can have
some control over it from the dashboard.
As before the Pi3 B+ is still not supported by the main image, although a
new spin for that model will be avilable in the beta section shortly.
Pi3 B+ Image location: http://www.pistar.uk/beta
17-Mar-2018 **Version 3.4.11 - Respin**
Just re-creating the images with the current dashbaord / binaries already
included, this also improves the WiFi settings page when using the
new AutoAP feature.
Raspberry Pi3 B+ is NOT supported by this image, although you will find a
beta version of the image with basic support for the B+ model at
the following location: http://www.pistar.uk/beta
06-Mar-2018 **Version 3.4.11**
AutoAP is a new feature supported on Pi3 and Pi Zero W (there is some
support for other WiFi dongles too, but its VERY limited to the
exact chipset on the card. So what does AutoAP do I hear you ask?
Simply put, if you have AutoAP enabled, Pi-Star will attempt to
connect to any configured WiFi it already knows about, but if
this fails for 120 secs after boot up, it will start it's own
access point, giving you a method to connect to the device over
WiFi to configure another network.
There may be times when you may find it more appropriate to
connect the Pi-Star over Ethernet, in this case when you connect
to the Pi-Star's access point, you can share the wired connection
with devices over WiFi. Further this also works for teathered
connections too!
The usual host of updates to the on-board binaries, dashboard, host files
and of course OS patches too.
24-Feb-2018 **Version 3.4.10**
NXDN has now been added to MMDVMHost, there is no NXDN Gateway service
yet but that is supposed to be coming soon. In the mean time
the service has been hard coded to use the single public
reflector for you all to start using the service. Keep in mind
that NXDN IDs are 2 bytes long, 0-65533.
P25Gateway & P25Parrot upgraded to the current release. This fixes
a very minor long-standing P25Parrot bug, it also removes the
logging requirement for the P25Parrot, removing the need for
Pi-Star to maintain patches for the build process.
YSFGateway & P25Parrot upgraded to the current release. This fixes
a small update that removes the logging requirement for the
YSFParrot, removing the need for Pi-Star to maintain patches for
the build process.
While working on this I found a related bug in the way that Pi-Star
implements the YSFParrot that caused me some issues while testing
the YSF2DMR. YSFParrot service handler and config have now been sorted
out.
YSF2DMR binary has now been included, along with service handlers, this is
now fully integrated into Pi-Star.
As usual these are all accompanied by MANY dashboard improvements...
28-Jan-2018 **Version 3.4.9**
USB-ModeSwitch has been upgraded from Debian Backports, this improves
the operation of USB 3G/4G sticks. This is only a small change
but it requires a version bump to make it avilable as an update
to existing Pi-Star units.
21-Jan-2018 **Version 3.4.8 Respin**
This is just a respin of 3.4.8, including Raspbian updates, notably PHP has
been updated in raspbian and a few users had that break during a
manual update cycle, so this release has those patches already
installed.
Dashboard at the current build as are the radio related binaries, this
includes the update to P25Gateway.
01-Dec-2017 **Version 3.4.8**
Shellinabox (the web bassed SSH client built into the expert menu) has now
been patched up so that the $quot;-' char is passed correctly
by firefox and other browsers.
Dashboard improvements that include the option to force D-Star XRF reflectors
to connect using DPlus protocol.
30-Nov-2017 **Version 3.4.7**
Minor changes to the OS to allow USB tethering to iPhone and other devices
Modeswitch command / data added to start provding the ability to use USB
tethering for some MiFi devices, along with starting to add the
suport framework for 3G/4G dongles. Some of these may work, most
of them probably still do not. Your milage may vary.
24-Nov-2017 **Version 3.4.6 Respin**
Respint to produce new images after the recent changes to MMDVMHost
these changes add alternative screen support, and make some
changes to the config for MMDVMHost in the System Fusion section.
Improved WiFi support for Nano Pi / Orange Pi / Odroid.
The OS is also updated with all current patches etc.
03-Nov-2017 **Version 3.4.6 Respin**
Respin to account for a bug in the P25Parrot binary causing it to create
the log files in the wrong folder.
02-Nov-2017 **Version 3.4.6**
The only change is to /etc/motd to adjust the text output for the WebSSH
client.
This build also includes all the recent updates to MMDVMHost / YSFCliens
along with the usual changes / updates to the dashboard, OS,
host files etc.
30-Oct-2017 **Version 3.4.5 Respin**
No new features, just adding updated images.
10-Oct-2017 **Version 3.4.5 Respin**
RPi Version - Again nothing really new here, just updated to the
current update / patch level.
NanoPi Neo / NanoPi Neo Air - Added wiringPi support for full GPIO
support on this platform - this brings it in-line with RPi.
OrangePi Zero - Added wiringPi support for full GPIO support on this
platform - this brings it in-line with RPi.
Odroid XU4 - Mainline Kernel (4.9.x), wiringPi support - support for
this platform is now much closer to that of the RPi hardware.
There is however still outstanding work to be done on the eMMC
support, that is still lacking in this build, more on that soon.
29-Sep-2017 **Version 3.4.5 Respin**
RPi Version - Nothing new, just made some changes to my release build
scripts here; md5sum is now included inside the zip, so it
will not show up on the download page any more.
NanoPi Neo / NanoPi Neo Air - Improved WiFi driver support to include
the MT7601 (again). Support had been included for this module
previously, but it had been broken by the recent kernel changes.
Odroid XU4 - Improved WiFi driver support to include
the MT7601 (again). Support had been included for this module
previously, but it had been broken by the recent kernel changes.
OrangePi Zero - Firmware moved from Beta to Release. Factory heatsync on
this board is on the small side, concider using a fan or using
a larger heatsync that stock.
24-Sep-2017 **Version 3.4.5 Respin**
Just re-creating the images, no special new features at this point.
NanoPi Neo and NanoPi Neo Air have new Kernels that fix up
some of the long standing issues with these platforms,
this includes improved GPIO support, improved USB device
support on the NanoPi Neo.
10-Sep-2017 **Version 3.4.5**
Added HTTP SSH Client built into the 'Expert' settings
menus. This SSH client allows the ability to be
able to connect to Pi-Star's SSH server without
the need for a seperate SSH client.
Powered by the excellent 'shellinabox' application
and installed from the Raspbian repositories it
will be maintained as part of the OS.
Includes all of the usual upgraddes to the dashboard and the
Raspbian operating system, including the recent addition
of the seperate hang timers for all modes.
18-Aug-2017 **Version 3.4.4**
Dashboard config hardening - there have been reports of
issues with the configuration page on the dash
failing when submitting any charicters that are not
alphanumeric. The code has now been hardened to
take care of those edge cases and just clean up
when you do enter charicters that it cannot cope
with.
P25 SelfOnly - P25 is getting the same Public / Private
protection mode as D-Star and DMR. All credit to
Jonathan (G4KLX), although there are some Pi-Star
patches for it with a pull request submitted upstream.
Dashboard fixes - various small fixes to the dashboard
to help reduce the errors logged in the webserver
log.
Testing USB Max Current - Pi-Star never had this option
set, I suspect this may be the cause of some of
the issues with some USB modems.
Modem support improved - better support for the DV-Mega
on Arduino modems, plus seperated ZUMspot modem
options out in preperation for auto firmware
updates that are coming later.
09-Aug-2017 **Version 3.4.3**
This one is a game changer, not only does it have the
new, on-board information from BrandMeister,
able to show you what TGs / REFs you have connected
by getting the information directly from the BM
network, but also...
From this version forwards, *FULL* updates are available.
This means that from here on, there should be
further reduction in the number of times you ever
need to write an image.
This is going to be a manual process for the
remains of the 3.4.x train, with plans for full
automatic coming later!
29-Jul-2017 **Version 3.4.2**
Many Dashboard updates adding to existing features and
also re-skinning and fixing up the existing
'expert mode' editors.
Added stm32flash to the base image, this is going to
used later for flashing the ZumSpot hardware
in place, although I am not completely ready
for this yet, this is a step in the right
direction.
DMR_Hosts.txt is now updated automatically on a daily
shedule, same as the D-Star host files for
ircDDBGateway. In addition some local over
ride files are now placed in /root for both
D-Star hosts and for DMR hosts.
13-Jul-2017 **Version 3.4.1 Respin**
Rasbian released an update to nginx (the webserver used on
Pi-Star - this update breaks the install on Pi-Star
and casuse the dashboard to fail to be available.
This is a pre-fixed version of the image, with an
improved version of the update tool to make sure
we never get hit by this again.
03-Jul-2017 **Version 3.4.1**
Many updates to the Pi-Star Dashboard...
The dashboard follows a rolling release, and is updated
regularly.
OS Updated as of 03-Jul-2017 including the Kernel updates etc.
Again the OS also follows a rolling release, so you will
have all of these updates without needing to replace your
image.
PiStar-Remote now included, this brings back the RF control options
for your Pi-Star, similar to those available with the older
DStarRepeater software, in this release options include:
RF Killswtich to stop the MMDVMHost process
Service restart for MMDVMHost
Reboot of your Pi
Shutdown is deliberatly missing, this could cause abuse
issues for repeater keepers, contact me directly if
you need guidance on adding your own commands.
16-Jun-2017 **Version 3.4.0 Respin**
No changes in base, just pre-updated with all the leatest updates.
09-Jun-2017 **Version 3.4.0**
After investigating an issue with XRF D-Star Reflectors and why
a Pi-Star user had problems connecting to them with Pi-Star
but could connect without issue on his OpenSpot, I found that
the OpenSpot uses a different connectivity method, one that
is less likly to cause network issues due to the outbound
nature of its connection method. So Pi-Star has also adopted
the same setup. Thanks OpenSpot guys!
Update code for the hosts files has been improved to reduce the chance
of it wiping the hosts files out if they cant be downloaded.
Hand's Off WiFi now included. This means you can put the file containing
your WiFi information 'wpa_supplicant.conf' into the Pi-Star boot
folder that is accessible when you create the image, and when the
Pi-Star boots it will auto connect to your WiFi. This does assume
that you have a backed up file to restore, but I hope it will
help some of you.
Raspberry Pi Zero W WiFi support out of the box, this required the
Raspberry Pi boot code to be updated.
Hand's Off Config restore, so if you are updating the SD Card image
and you have a backup of your config form the Pi-Star dashboard
you can just drop the ZIP file of your backup into the 'boot'
partition and when your Pi-Star boots up, it will autoconfigure
itslef using your backup.
The issues I have been having with Cron are finally 100% cured in 3.4.0
I was pretty sure I had already fixed this, but there were still
some gremlins that are now cleaned up.
Added CPU temp support in Farenheight.
Official support for the FriendlyArm NanoPi Neo / Nano Pi Neo Air.
26-May-2017 **Version 3.3.9**
The CRON daemon was misconfigured, after some work on it, cron is
now working the way it should again.
Dashboard has a number of fixes in it, so as usual the base OS and
dashboard are updated to the latest and greatest versions.
WiFi Connection software has been re-written in the dashboard, this
has the impact of making it more easy to connect to WiFi from
the config portal in the dashboard.
Shutdown / Reboot Buttons added to the dashboard.
Service restart / Log clean up (that was previously handled by
logrotate, had been replaced with a custom daily script to
help mittigate the shortcomings of logrotate.
Factory-Reset option had some broken settings; fixed these up and
removed the insanity :)
Removed some breakage from the YSFGateway config where it would drop
the connected reflector after 10 mins no matter what, this
turned out to be related to the onboard firewall dropping
the ACK packets coming back form the connected gateway.
Given that the above was a problem, I went bug hunting in the P25
gateway daemon too, and have tried to make sure that the
same bug will not cause issues with that.
Swapped the default mode to MMDVMHost for new images - now when you
setup a brand new Pi-Star it will select MMDVMHost by
default (changeable of course).
Removed the broken duplex setup that put every new Pi-Star in Duplex
mode if you didn't spot it in the dashboard.
Config backup / restore option added to the dash, to make upgrades
between Pi-Star versions pain free.
22-May-2017 **Version 3.3.8**
It's Unusual for me to do a release at the start of the week, but this
release addresses a bug introduced a few releases back that can
cause the update process to fail to reposond in the web
browser, the update process works in the background but no
information is displayed in the browser window. There is a fix
for this avilable here: PiStar Wiki.
Apart from the above update, the latest Dashboard build is included.
19-May-2017 **Version 3.3.7**
Changes to the update system to simplify the process, every host file
had its own seperate update script, this ment keeping lots of
seperate scripts up to date, now I have one script to update them
all, with more of the complex work happening on the back end.
ircDDBGateway's service unit/init files updated, ircDDBGateway will now
only run when you require D-Star Networking.
Update includes latest 20170519 Dashboard and all OS related updates
and patches.
13-May-2017 **Version 3.3.6**
The Base images has the latest OS patches, but most importantly I
found that I had not installed Samba after the update to
Jesse-Lite, so name resolution of 'pi-star' for windows
users has been broken for some time. Samba re-added and
configured again.
This release contains the newest build of the dashboard (13-May-2017).
02-May-2017 **Version 3.3.5**
This release has the current OS updates pre-applied, along with the
most recent build of the dashboard (20170501).
No significant changes to the base - if you are running Pi-Star 3.3.3
or newer already there is no need to upgrade to this release.
20-Apr-2017 **Version 3.3.4**
This release only incorporates dashboard changes, if you are already
running Pi-Star, there is no need to update. The included
updates provide a slightly improved experiance when running
through the configuration for the first time.
18-Apr-2017 **Version 3.3.3**
Large number of changes on the back end, improving P25 and YSF modes.
P25 Parrot added and fixed up.
YSF Parrot added and fixed up.
Dashboard modifications to enable better support of YSF.
Dashboard modifications to enable better support of P25.
16-Apr-2017 **Version 3.3.2**
Minor update process revision to fix a bug with kernel updates.
Removed Hostfile update dependence on any other servers than
this one.
Fixed some minor bugs in P25 mode, P25 still needs some work, but
the network setup for P25 is nolonger broken.
Fixed some bugs in the firewall code stopping P25Gateway from being
able to make outbound connections.
01-Apr-2017 **Version 3.3.1**
Minor system updates including small modifications to the way the
OS updates are handled to improve relyability.
10-Mar-2017 **Version 3.3.0**
Re-written update process - OS Updates are done automatically every
night, without user intervention - your security assured.
Dashboard is now updatable without the need for re-imaging your Pi.
Much like the OS update process, no user intervention is
required, the Dash will update over night, but there is also
an update option within the dashboard too.
Onboard Software auto updated, much the same way as the above, the
radio software is also now updated. I will roughly track a
weekly release cycle with MMDVMHost unless there is a major
reason to release more / less often than that.
Hostfiles used by ircDDBGateway have been radically over-hauled,
all host-names are pre-resolved to IP addresses to speed up
the load time for ircDDBGateway, this has made a huge
improvement to the load time, files are updated (and re-
resolved) daily.
From this point on, Dashboard updates / OS Updates / Radio software
updates are all automatic, this should reduce the need for me
to release new Pi Images, and reduce the need for you to keep
pace with the update cycle.
04-Mar-2017 **Version 3.2.12**
3.2.11 with its new ability to connect to US-Trust repeaters, caused
an interesting (if you like that kind of thing) bug that
make starting the ircDDBGateway software to take a LONG time
to start up, how long depended on your internet connection.
for some users, it was just a little slow, for others it
would take 30 mins or more.
This has now been resolved, while maintaining the ability to
connect to US Trust repeaters, and while I was at it I was
also able to reduce the time it takes for ircDDBGateway to
start - its quicker than before I added this functionality!
03-Mar-2017 **Version 3.2.11**
Extended start delay for MMDVMHost to 60 secs - this solves issues with
the Bluestack board.
Added daily auto update of D-Star Hosts files;
DCS_Hosts.txt
DPlus_Hosts.txt
DExtra_Hosts.txt
Added a new ability to connect to any D-Star Repeater on the US-Trust
network, even when this node is using OpenQuad. So far as
I know - no other image has this ability!
Thank you Adrian (M0GLJ) for coming up with the idea for this one.
MMDVMHost updated to latest release.
Jesse-Lite / Kernel updated.
23-Feb-2017 **Version 3.2.10**
Upgraded MMDVMHost to the current version
