[ 1.822762] bone-capemgr bone_capemgr.7: slot #1: Requesting firmware ‘cape-bone-replicape-00A1.dtbo’ for board-name ‘Replicape 3D printer cape’, version ’00A1′
Am I dreaming? After visiting every inch of the kernel twice, it’s hard to believe that I have finally cracked it. With my face still stuck on the keyboard, I manage to scroll up in the boot log to get a better look. Yes, it is true! My firmware has been loaded into Device Tree! Do you know what this means? The SPI device is available! That means the Replicape is working on Ubuntu! That means that everyone will buy Replicape for their printers and I will finally have world domination! Anyways, that’s it for the fun part, now let the geeks work : )

Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
