Gregconboy158 Posted July 12, 2018 Report Posted July 12, 2018 Hello everyone, I've just got a g4+ pnp for my track car. Has anyone used a raspberry pi as a dash display successfully? I know it is big in the megasquirt world but I can't find much on it for link. It's either a pi or a windows tablet I'm looking at, I could get a race technology dash2 but it would be nice to use something I can adjust the map on too. Quote
Brad Burnett Posted July 12, 2018 Report Posted July 12, 2018 I have no input on this other than I do love my Race Tech Dash2 Pro. Quote
Adamw Posted July 13, 2018 Report Posted July 13, 2018 For a raspberry pi I suspect there would be a OBD2 app that would allow display only. There will never be a Linux version of PC Link. If you want to adjust anything you will need windows. Quote

Perhaps virtual windows inside linux if you really need it. Correct, depending where you look, most data for the market share of desktop & tablet operating systems shows Linux sitting around 1-3% and windows around 85%. Its a massive undertaking to appeal to that 1-3%. Quote
