Hello All,

Friend of mine and I would like to donate some of our effort/money/time providing computers at a primary school in a village in Goa.

Cool.

Noting that it's a primary school, so on Raspbian OS should be ok.

Assuming that those kids aint having syllabus to do some heavy C, C++, Python,Java programming on x86_64 bit processor architecture. ^_^

Do gather basic requirements for example language localization requirement.

Also confirm that the computer teacher knows Linux OS & he/she can diagnose very basic issues in Linux OS.

We were thinking of having Raspberry Pi -3 with Input/Output devices. But software/OS, we were thinking of having Gnu/Linux.

You are just going to donate Raspberry Pi 3 device or along with screens?

If you are just going to donate the devices, then buying HDMI screens going to be an expensive deal to the school. :-)

Raspberry Pi is at throw away price but other components are expensive for example HDMI monitor.

Regards,

Amey.

Has any one tried Debian on RP3? Is Hamara Gnu/Linux endorsed by Debian?

Let me know if anyone has tried out this setup in the school.
