Problem with Detecting A new version of Raspberry pi 3B +

[kaangoksal]

this is also not detected, I think this is a new batch of raspberry pis

(venv) pi@raspberrypi:~ $ uname -a
Linux raspberrypi 6.1.21-v7+ #1642 SMP Mon Apr  3 17:20:52 BST 2023 armv7l GNU/Linux

(venv) pi@raspberrypi:~ $ cat /proc/device-tree/model
Raspberry Pi 3 Model B Plus Rev 1.4(venv)

        have the latest packages running:
        'pip3 install --upgrade adafruit-blinka adafruit-platformdetect'

I played around with the detector, I think the issue is not having this version in the constants file

>>> detector.board._pi_rev_code()
'a020d4'

Huh, ok. Thanks, I thought they were done updating the Pi 3.

[kaangoksal]

are you going to merge it?

Having the same issue with the same board a020d4. I made the change suggested above but still get a similar error for NeoPixel post changes.

Thanks in advance!

Oops, meant to merge sooner. Ok, merged now.
