Libre Computer Board AML-S905X-CC (Le Potato) 64-bit 4K Media Mini Computer (2GB)

Product Information

Le Potato and ZimaBoard can also be used in industrial and commercial projects. Their low power consumption and compact size make them ideal for embedded systems and custom applications. They both have Ethernet connectivity, which allows them to be easily integrated into existing networks. Le Potato and ZimaBoard also have hardware acceleration for image processing and machine learning tasks, making them suitable for computer vision applications. Custom Projects and Applications They’re showing up as Raspberry Pi fanboys exactly when it’s time to get off the Pi train and move onto the next thing. That’s so typical in technology. Cryptocurrency is exactly the same way where all the morons buy in at the peak of the market when everything is hot and lose everything. You aren’t early once you are hearing about everyone else doing it / using them. This is the fracturing of the Pi ecosystem they are showing up to and not the golden age. It’s not the end of the Pi ecosystem but it is the end of their iron-fisted and nearly exclusive rule of the entire ecosystem and they have forced it with these supply chain issues. That time is over and they have only themselves to be mad at for making it necessary to break their monopoly since they can no longer provide widely available cheap computers and haven’t been able to for some time. This tool lets easily move from any Raspberry Pi above a Raspberry Pi 2 directly to a Libre Board. You don’t have to reinstall any of your software. You don’t have to reconfigure your images or transfer your data. You simply run a simple script to enable the necessary files for the Libre to boot (while leaving the original image able to still boot on a Raspberry Pi). SBCs like Le Potato and ZimaBoard are perfect for educational and learning projects. They are affordable, easy to use, and offer a hands-on experience that can teach students about hardware and software development. Le Potato and ZimaBoard both support a variety of programming languages, making them ideal for teaching coding and software development. They also have a large community of developers and educators who have created resources and tutorials for beginners. Industrial and Commercial Projects Let’s explain what these mean. The first one about GPIO and device tree overlays means that if you are making extensive use of the GPIO pins or overlays you will need to use their wiring tool to translate the instructions to ones that will work with Libre boards. This is a pretty standard requirement for Pi competitor hardware and it’s actually a step above many competitors that Libre has a good working tool that lets you do this effectively.

Le Potato’s main documentation is a forum post with links to other forum posts. So, again, much to be desired on the documentation front. Especially considering that the Le Potato was launched more than 5 years ago.

For anyone who just wants to run a PiHole for example this would be a much smarter board choice than the Raspberry Pi at almost 1/3rd the price. It’s also actually available for that price. Lakka is a retro gaming operating system based off of LibreELEC. While Lakka is able to be installed on the Le Potato, Libre Computer, the manufacturer of the Le Potato recommends using Batocera instead, which is odd because it is not officially supported yet (but I found an image that does work, below). Regardless, I feel EmuELEC would be the better choice over Batocera or Lakka. There is actually a Libre Computers subreddit. There’s not a lot of activity other than me posting my articles but I’m actually seeing a little bit more there now and a couple of questions popping up. I’ve encountered the official Libre Computers reddit account here before and some of the other people in there seem to work there or be involved somehow. That’s another place you could consider where you are also pretty likely to get the attention of Libre Computers themselves (at least while they’re still this small).

Libre Computer Le Potato Review: A Raspberry Pi Alternative

Note: If you’re not using the roc-rk3399-pc (Renegade Elite) then you’ll want to run the following so the script will output the support options. You can then run the command with the appropriate board name to convert your OS installation. The second thing is that GPIO numbers need to be translated using their special tool. That means this board is not a perfect electrical replacement for a Raspberry Pi 3. It will probably work with most things after translation as long as there isn’t an overlay required.Le Potato and ZimaBoard both have expansion capabilities. Le Potato has a 40-pin GPIO header, while ZimaBoard has a 40-pin GPIO header and a 26-pin GPIO header. In addition, ZimaBoard has a M.2 slot for NVMe SSDs, which is not available on Le Potato. This gives ZimaBoard an advantage for those who require faster storage options. Power Consumption and Cooling Everything feels very snappy! It’s otherwise exactly what you’d expect Raspberry Pi OS to be (which is a good thing). Testing I/O Performance Alternatively, there is a bundle that includes the Le Potato, USB WiFi Dongle and a Heatsink found here: Le Potato Starter Kit Le Potato Projects: Home Automation Platforms ZimaBoard has several advantages over other SBCs in the market. For one, it has an impressive set of features that make it suitable for a range of applications. Its quad-core processor and DDR4 RAM ensure that it can handle most computing tasks with ease. The board also has a range of connectivity options, including gigabit Ethernet, WiFi, and Bluetooth. Le Potato has a maximum power consumption of 4.5 watts, while ZimaBoard has a maximum power consumption of 5.5 watts.
