I am a new build-a-pi user and I am running build-a-pi on buster. I am able to run WSJT-X and make contacts, but would like to run Gridtracker to get the additional benefits. When I run Gridtracker from menu I get a hourglass icon for 20-30 seconds, but the program never opens. I have seen mention of a Gridtracker patch for build-a-pi.

How do I install it and would this solve my current issue?

PS. I did a fresh install of bullseye and then installed build-a-pi on the new install. Gridtracker worked, but WSJT-X did not transmit. rather than spend much time debugging the new install I went back to the working buster install.

I ran the Update Tool and had it patch to the new version of Gridtracker however it did not install. I proceeded to run the Update Tool again and I'm getting an error invalid desktop entry file '/usr/local/share/applications/build-a-pi.desktop' and the tool no longer works.

Hi guys,
Does anyone know if the Mfj1204 is supported by the system?

Thanks,
Tom

I see "pulse" trying to do things and having trouble when I boot up. But, everything seems to work well so I had ignored those js8call boot up lines. That said though, I'm having trouble with one thing for sure. I have a feeling its pulse related as my reading says bullseye js8call doesn't use Alsa some how ? What I need to know is what line I should see in the "driver line" your supposed to select for Notifications out of a jack ? and also, which one out of a HDMI ? I won't even ask about the bluetooth one as I have read that Bluetooth audio can get complicated ? I eventually might try that but one thing is for sure, I'd like audio notifications from somewhere.

Seems to be WSJTX related. There's mentions of it over on the WSJTX groups.io.
gdb produces this:
Thread 1 "wsjtx" received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0xb58f8c40 in QtPrivate::qustrchr(QStringView, unsigned short) ()
?? from /lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libQt5Core.so.5
I'll wait for an update, hopefully there's a fix.

Do you have an app like “Network Analyzer” if you do you can scan the IP address of things connected to your network and find your pi IP address.?I’m assuming you plugged Pi into the network, that would be first thing to do.?

Pi4 or other model? If Pi4 try the other HDMI port. All Pis should at least show power on and Rainbow screen (even Pi4) unless something else broke, or the wrong input is selected on the monitor.

With the monitor attached, what do you see as you boot up?

Hi Jason,

Just to keep you up to date... I got another SD card and installed Bullseye, followed by a very limited clean install of BAP. I got PAT and PAT Menu working, but I get the exact same error message "Grid square not set in Pat configure" whenever it tries to automatically download the RMS station list.

Seems there's a problem with the script, rather than Pat?

Thanks,

Julian

Anyone else getting a Segmentation fault with WSJTX 2.5.3? Happens on Decode.

Trying to work out if this is WSJTX or Bullseye issue.

In the forum of cqrlog there is a description of how to install cqrlog 2.5.2 on bullseye:

Thanks Rico! I'll take a look at it.

Jason, you could look at the command “apt-mark hold” to keep a package from being updated. For example, you could install/update CQRlog while keeping a specific hamlib package version on hold. Google for examples/more info.

Just a thought.

Shouldn't be anything to worry about. You are seeing the screen because there is a patch available for those that need it. There is currently a patch available to install gridtracker that won't install with the main BAP script.

I also have a fresh install of Bullseye for the Raspberry PI and I got exactly the same errors when running the following install commands:?

?git clone https://github.com/km4ack/pi-build.git \
However, I got it to work with the following:

• Create a pi-build folder in my home directory
• cd into the pi-build folder
• git clone
• type ./build-a-pi and press enter

I've started to get the following messages when I use the BAP Update tool.? The missing directories noted at the end of the message really caught my eye.
