Today I got my RPi 3 and was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO excited to see what was new. I inserted a microSD card with NOOBS on it. Then Raspbian Jessie acually worked and booted. It was slow at first but booted. I was logged in automaticly as pi and when Jessie’s interface loaded I was sooooo excited! LibreOffice! Minecraft! Internet! Sonic Pi! Much More!

To set up Raspbian Jessie in the cool way, open up the Terminal and type

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install synaptic

sudo apt-get install geany

sudo apt-get install libvte9

Voila! You just installed some software. Synaptic is in the preferences menu, Geany in the Programming and libvte9 is a good package for the geany terminal tab if it isn’t in geany’s message window. It doesn’t always appear, but keep the package.

Go to programming, click Sonic Pi and type ‘mc_message”Hello World of Minecraft Pi Edition”‘. Then launch up Minecraft Pi, in the Games section and create a new world. Then click TAB on the keyboard.  Then on Sonic Pi, press Run. Click on the open tab Minecraft and you will see your message.

UPDATED:

Raspbian Jessie’s latest version has geany pre-installed
