klipper / MainsailOS on orange pi zero2 with adxl345 accelerometer
I used a MainsailOS image from https://github.com/mainsail-crew/MainsailOS/releases the ...orangepi-orangepi_zero2.img.xz image
- RASPBERRY PI ALTERNATIVE?

Why isn’t my printer starting ?(first time with touch screen and cl touch)
You need a Raspberry Pi. I would recommend downloading MainsailOS and putting it on the Pi. That has all the things you need pre-installed and you only have to configure it

Klipper searching for mainsail.cfg on Octoprint
Here is the mainsail.cfg file

Ender 2 pro, could I get help on how to fix these errors plz?
include the code from that mainsail.cfg file in your printer.cfg file(above the "Do not edit below this line" section)

How do I set up the webcam.txt to provide 1080p? As set up right now I only get a black image.
You need to use raspi light "classic" or mainsailos from https://github.com/mainsail-crew/MainsailOS/releases/tag/0.5.0 to insure your raspian is buster and not bullseye.

I can't seem to enter the make command
However MainSailOS is a beautiful Klipper front end project too. https://github.com/mainsail-crew/MainsailOS

Rate my benchy (100mm/s speed, 2000mm/s^2 accel, 0.2mm layer height, Ender 3 v1)
Yes it would be the optimal way to setup Octoprint or finished Raspberry Images like FluiddPi or MainsailOS Octoprint is the „official“ base for Klipper though personally I never had a need for Octoprint Plug-ins and use FluiddPi since a year. Klipper has also its subreddit /r/Klippers

Sonic Pad vs Klipper on Raspberry pi (what’s is missing from sonic pad?)
Use a Pi if you can find one and do the same steps from above or use a pre-built image for the Pi like FluiddPI.

First print since installing Klipper
i used fluid 1.6 which can be found here https://github.com/fluidd-core/FluiddPI/releases
- New Ender 3 S1 Pro my initial thoughts after a couple of days with it.
- Need compiled firmware for my 300c slice eng thermistor+ extender 400XL printer.. can’t compile on my pc.

Real improvements going to Klipper?
I 'm a noobie to RPi so I installed FluiddPi image on an SD card using Rufus -- need to tinker with anything on the RPi directly -- runs fine so far.
-
I'm not sure what to do next. I have an error saying no moonraker connection
All else fails; start over by downloading the FluiddPi Raspberry Pi image zip file from here. FluiddPi v1.17.0
-
Itttsss aliiive!!! Again. Description in comment
Mainsail looks nicer though... the only reason I went Fluidd over Mainsail is because FluiddPi was an easy route to trying Klipper. It's a Pi image with Klipper, Moonraker, and Fluidd pre-installed
- Is a Rasberry Pi 4 (B) 2gb good enough to install and run kilpper on my Ender 5 Plus?

Octoprint using klipper for dummies
You need to get the latest fluiddPi. use this link https://github.com/cadriel/FluiddPI/releases/download/v1.16.2/fluiddpi-rpi-lite-v1.16.2.zip This will download the zip file that contains the Fluidd and Klipper software. Now follow the document and video to create a MicroSD card for the PI. The Pi is where Klipper/ fluidd runs. It does all of the work converting the Gcode and it then controls the printer board. Once you have the SD card created then you need to edit the fluiddpi-wpa-supplicant.txt file to enter your SSID and network password. This should get the Pi on your network. Re-read the instructions and see if this works.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing MainsailOS and FluiddPI you can also consider the following projects:
fluidd - Fluidd, the klipper UI.
mainsail - Mainsail is the popular web interface for managing and controlling 3D printers with Klipper.
