Lakka 2.1.1 with Raspberry Pi 3 B+ support
Lakka 2.1.1 is out!
This new version of Lakka retro gaming operating system now supports the new Raspberry Pi 3 B+ and Amlogic S912 based boxes.
The images have been pushed to our servers about two months ago. But we didn’t want to release this new version publicly yet in order to try to fix a few remaining issues. It turn out these issues are taking too long to fix, and it’s better to not hold the release any longer. Especially now that a lot of users have RPi3 B+.
Many packages have been updated with a focus on stability.
