I don't think so. I am also running it on a Linux Mint machine which I am playing with. Speaking of Linux, the Raspberry Pi B 2 just hit the internet. With a quad core v7 core and a gig of Ram, otherwise identical. I am seriously considering building out a parallel processor using a bunch of these. Lots of press on a bunch of guys doing this, using the old Pi. With a faster processor, quad cores and twice the memory, the overall horsepower just went up radically. I'm thinking of maybe starting with 8 of them. (32) one ghz cores and 8 gigs of ram anyone? I ordered a BeagleBone black last week (before this announcement) because I love ucontroller / electronics stuff. I got my start in electronics back in the late 60s, pre ucontroller. A few years back I started playing with the Atmel uc series, with many different pin packages. It was a bit of a pita to set up but was a ton-o-fun. I actually designed a pulse width modulation motor driver, driving a cmos high power driver, driving a very powerful motor from a ride on toy. The BeagleBone has most of that stuff built right in, in a package size the same as the Pi. Well, not the high power cmos amp... But it has a couple of dedicated 200 mhz controllers right on die for the real time stuff to dr. Of course you have to program them in assembler... And just a slew of i/o. Cool stuff. John W.
