[EDIT: I saw your image for x86,

Could we see that graphical environment, and great work from you in the SBC world? wink

Thanks,
that raspberry pi is running headless, i connect only via ssh and tmux, so there is no point for me to have a graphical environment installed
and now that everything is set up and deployed, i wont touch it in the near future

thanks again, i would not have been able to do this without your help wink

#127 Re: ARM Builds » [Solved] Raspberry Pi 1 Probelms » 2020-11-09 17:39:47

Yes, it is working wink
turned out that copying that /opt/vc/lib folder from https://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware … opt/vc/lib was a really bad idea
'apt install --fix-broken' would always complain about the 2 armhf packages and fail removing them and sudo ldconfig would always throw a segmentation fault

luckily a made a backup before i did this
i uninstalled the armhf files from raspbian and then did this

git clone https://github.com/raspberrypi/userland.git
cd userland
sudo ./buildme

that gave me /opt/vc/lib/libbcm_host.so and all the other needed files

sudo echo "/opt/vc/lib" >> /etc/ld.so.conf
sudo ldconfig -vv

as tuxd3v mentioned

and finally

git clone https://github.com/markondej/fm_transmitter.git
cd fm_transmitter
make

thanks wink

not really, they are installed but unconfigured
libraspberrypi-dev was depended on libraspberrypi0 and that depended on raspberrypi-bootloader
and i didnt want to install that bootloader
however i have now that /opt/vc/lib/libbcm_host.so file
but now i get more errors from make

now i compiled the fm_transmitter on raspbian and copied it over to devuan but i can't run it
the file is there and is executable but

./fm_transmitter

  returns 'no such file or directory: ./fm_transmitter'

#130 Re: ARM Builds » [Solved] Raspberry Pi 1 Probelms » 2020-11-08 20:40:47

i installed raspbian on another sd-card and did

sudo apt download libraspberrypi-dev

and got libraspberrypi-dev_1.20200819-1_armhf.deb
now when i try to install this on the devuan sd-card with

sudo dpkg -i libraspberrypi-dev_1.20200819-1_armhf.deb

it fails because dpkg: error processing archive libraspberrypi-dev_1.20200819-1_armhf.deb (--install):
package architecture (armhf) does not match system (armel)
which i find very strange, it was the same hardware, why has raspbian another architecture

also while i was on raspbian i tried the dht22 humidity sensor and it worked no problem
i debugged it with print statements and found out that it was detecting that im on a pi 3 instead of pi 1, so i had to install it from git with the --force-pi option intead of installing it with pip
so at least that is working now

#131 Re: Devuan Derivatives » Michaels Devuan Edition *Update* » 2020-11-08 14:07:47

Thank pymd !

There is an updated version of the installer available on sourceforge below the iso download,
which has to be added by hand into the ~/.local/Scripts directory
But i just noticed yesterday that there still is a problem, if you chose grub, it will maybe complain about a gpt partition table even if there is none
i will fix that with the next release, for now, the workaround is to press the left arrow key if this message appears and the installation will proceed

#132 Re: ARM Builds » [Solved] Raspberry Pi 1 Probelms » 2020-11-08 13:09:09

Thanks a lot for your answer tux !!
it looks like libraspberrypi-dev is not in the devuan repo
i will try get it from raspbian

Hi,
I have some problems with Devuan on my Raspberry Pi (1 B)
and i assume that the broadcom driver /boot/bcm2708-rpi-b.dtb is not loaded correctly.
How can i check and maybe edit the boot command to make sure it is included?

The reason why i think it has to do with /boot/bcm2708-rpi-b.dtb, is because i tried to build https://github.com/pimylifeup/fm_transmitter
and it failed with this error: transmitter.cpp:36:10: fatal error: bcm_host.h: No such file or directory

and also the driverers from Adafruit_DHT (for DHT22 humidity sensor)
fail with this: RuntimeError: Error accessing GPIO.

maybe i have to edit /boot/cmdline.txt , but how to include that bcm file?

#134 Re: Devuan Derivatives » Michaels Devuan Edition *Update* » 2020-10-25 18:30:02

I am happy to announce that the problem that yohno had is now fixed.
Grub now installs correctly with or without seperate boot and in UEFI and Legacy.
I made massive changes to the installer and fixed a lot of things,
also added some more checks to make sure everything is set up correctly before the install function starts.

Also qutebrowser no longer uses the relative old version from the devuan repository,
but the latest release from github. A script is available to check and download the most recent release.

The iso file hase just been uploaded to sourceforge

#135 Re: Devuan Derivatives » Michaels Devuan Edition *Update* » 2020-10-11 11:23:53

Thanks for the feedback
i will try to fix that in the next release

#136 Re: Devuan Derivatives » Michaels Devuan Edition *Update* » 2020-10-10 19:14:36

just uploaded a video on how to use the installer
https://lbry.tv/@alphalpha:d/installer-tutorial:9

in case you still have problems, try it with the --debug option and tell me the last thing it displays before it fails

#137 Re: Devuan Derivatives » Michaels Devuan Edition *Update* » 2020-10-07 15:33:45

i am not sure why, but the forum tells me i dont have permission to edit my original post

just wanted to add some updates
i didn't post anything in the last months but that does not mean i did not make any changes on the distro

finally found a good chess program with a live evaluation graph (cutechess)
added sound effects that can be launched with shift + F-keys
added sound for login and if usb devices are plugged in
added new scripts and improved the old ones (the kernel compiler script can now download and compile the linux libre kernel)
added the olive video editor and some small packages
and more

#138 Re: Devuan Derivatives » Michaels Devuan Edition *Update* » 2020-10-07 15:22:37

Hey Yohno !
nice to hear, since i get almost no feedback i was thinking that no one is trying it

I noticed the Oct. issue was very strange with very tiny size of 13.5MB

i just checked and it says 2.5GB on sourceforge
maybe you tried to download on the day i was uploading, i lost the connection and had to reupload

And kindly add how to install via your Michaels installer as well for me or for us.

use the arrow keys to navigate up and down in the menu, press enter (or right arrow) to select something and q (or left arrow) to go back
the blinking cursor indicates required input
under "system settings" you should edit the hostname and keyboard layout (i set the default to german)
under "user account settings" you should change the user name
when you are done configuring hit "start installation"

did you get any error message or explain in more detail how it failed?
maybe i will manage to make a tutorial video this weekend

greetings, michael

I also checked the shutdown menu item in the Jwm menu file. I didn't get a message to supply the password to shutdown.

as far as i know the .Xauthority file will be created automatically when you login
