Installation
The installation is in 2 parts...
part 1 - install FATES distribution and configure it
part 2 - install orac / sidekick etc.
This has been tested on a terminal tedium running the FATES install. it should work on others, but the idea is to have a base line install.
Terminal Tedium running FATES (see below) 2 x SH1106 OLED displays, using I2C on 0x60, and 0x61
this is kind of option, we potentially could use a raspbian distribution, and set it up yourself. however, I cannot support this, as there are too many steps to consider.
you can get FATES from: https://github.com/okyeron/fates
defaults: hostname: norns username: we password:sleep
the general install of this should work, the only two modifications were made a) disable encoders and screen in /boot/config.txt just comment out the line that says something like dtoverlay=fates-buttons-encoders dtoverlay=fates-ssd1322,rotate=180
b) disable norns sudo systemctl stop norns.target sudo systemctl disable norns.target
c) i rename host to tt, but thats optional! (but Id recommend it ;) ) use raspi-config (you can also setup wifi and expand fs whilst here)
then reboot
(if your not using FATES, which i dont support, but at the end of doc here, you'll find some tips !)
Installing orac/sidekick/pure data for the first time: a) network connection ensure your tt is connected to your local network via wifi, and that it has connection to the internet.
b) log in to tt
ssh we@norns.local (password: sleep)
c) run the installer copy n' paste the following command to your tt, and press enter
sudo curl https://thetechnobear.github.io/apt-tt/install.sh | sh
Thats it your done, subsequent updates can be done directly from Sidekick (see below).
note: if you installed orac/sidekick using the old method of copying files to the tt, you should use this 'first time install' procedure too.
when you would like to update Orac and Sidekick, you can do this directly from Sidekick simple:
- network connection ensure your tt is connected to your local network via wifi, and that it has connection to the internet.
- in Sidekick, select 'Check for updates' from the menu this will then automatically update whatever components are needed to be updated.
THE END - have fun :)
so the idea of using FATES image is so that we all have the same starting point.
you can use your own installs, but bare in my deb files assume a few things
- a standard debian image, that originated from raspbian
- an optimised audio installation
- audio cards configured
- working internet connection
- a user called 'we', that has sudo privileges
- supercollider installed and configured
probably some other assumptions, about software installed.... but I think the above are the important bits
