Re: Bullseye boots up but ends up being a black screen

When I first installed Bullseye on a Pi, it didn’t come with a GUI — it was command line only and then you could install any of a number of GUI packages. Granted, this was very close to the day when Bullseye 64 bit was officially released, so this may have changed now. But I had similar behavior of booting to a (almost) black screen, except for a little cursor at bottom left.

Other things to investigate are your /boot/config.txt settings, especially the HDMI options: read?
and?

Really strange - it should have an entry to point to

Did you select HAMRADIO from the apps dropdown, scroll up to Build-A-Pi, then select Update-Tool?

GPS not working

#9029
Edited

Can I uninstall the gps setup and do it manually. I can't get it to work and I've tried different ones including one that works good on my linux mint setup and another pi4 radio setup

Didn't run pi-build from $HOME

#9028

I made the mistake of not downloading the pi-build to $HOME. I only installed a few tools like conky, I already had the FLDIGI, etc installed. The install went quick and was successful. I ran Conk-Prefs to change the size, but then conky failed to reappear. I tried creating a symbolic link to pi-build in $HOME, but that did not get conky running either after reboot. Is there a way to clean the pi-build environment to do a fresh install from the correct directory?

Thanks
Phil

Re: Buster not supported

#9027
Edited

I just use my pis for ham radio, and I feel they are perfect for that.? I've been running quad mode on a pi4 for years.? Fldigi, FSQ, gARIM and JS8 on a Buster pi4. It's not 100% perfect all the time but pretty close to it. Perfect would be to get VARA and vARIM working on the pi.? I now have both working on Linux Mint with crossover.

Re: BAP on RasPi zero

#9025

Hi Bruce,

Any update on how FLDIGI is working on the Zero? I saw your videos on it and replicated the build. I got the latest BAP to install, it took about 8 hours. FLRIG, JS8, and WSJTX run fine. But FLDIGI uses all the swap space and I can't even get through the configuration wizard. I will try your suggested clocking modifications and see if there is any improvement.

I still run Buster..too many issues with Bullseye, IMHO. It doesn't work well with some non-ham stuff I use the Pi for.

Re: Using iPad as remote desktop?

#9023

I'm kind of a path-of-least-resistance Linux guy. At one point early on, VNC was giving me some static about the number of machines I had on it, or similar. I have two Linux Mint laptops, one windows laptop and one ios device. A fellow on a Linux forum suggested Nomachine and even at my low skill level, I've been using it almost daily since.

Bullseye boots up but ends up being a black screen

#9016
Edited

I've been using Buster on my pi4 and wanted to upgrade to Bullseye and install BAP.? Bullseye looks like its installing, but after awhile, nothing happens and it's a black screen.? Could it be my display?? I've switched hdmi ports but still nothing?? I've searched but I dont seem to find an answer.? Any help would be appreciated.?

TIA,
Pat

Re: Using iPad as remote desktop?

#9015

Kevin & Jason,

I know that my question was not really BAP related but there seemed to be a lot of chatter about RPi alternatives. Glad I found one ... BUT prefer BAP/RPi for my Go Box. Works great. In fact, I use it as a demo when I take my gear to the Ontario Science Center for my volunteer shift. Visitors can relate to email and (of late) internet system failures. Great attention grabber and from there I can bridge to demo'ing amateur radio general benefits.

As always, thanks for help/support.
