Raspberry Pi Manual Setup Instructions
#Summary This document contains the instructions to setup the host software on a raspberry pi running a new image of raspian wheezy. If you have problems with this or better ideas, make it better.
- Install RXTX and xserver utils
- Disable sleep/screensaver
- Setup application to start on boot
- Install application
- Reboot
- Enjoy!!
##Future
In an effort to make things as simple as possible, eventually we'll make an image. After finalizing the manual steps needed to make the host work on a raspberry pi, we would like to find a way to create a raspian wheezy image with this software preinstalled.
#Install RXTX and xserver utils
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install librxtx-java
sudo apt-get install x11-xserver-utils
#Disable sleep/screensaver
Instructions to disable the sleep/screensaver on the pi
sudo nano /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc
Add the following lines to the end of the document
xset s off # don't activate screensaver
xset -dpms # disable DPMS (Energy Star) features
xset s noblank # don't blank the video device
Save and exit nano by pressing ctrl+x then hit "Y" and then enter and enter again, then enter the following commands
sudo sed -i 's/#xserver-command=X/xserver-command=X -s 0 -dpms'/ /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf
sudo sed -i 's/POWERDOWN_TIME=30/POWERDOWN_TIME=0'/ /etc/kbd/config
sudo sed -i 's/BLANK_TIME=30/BLANK_TIME=0'/ /etc/kbd/config
#Setup application to start on boot Instructions to start the Creation-Workshop-Host on boot Enter the following commands
mkdir ~/.config
mkdir ~/.config/autostart
touch ~/.config/autostart/cwhost.desktop
nano ~/.config/autostart/cwhost.desktop
Add the following lines to the file :
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Exec=Exec=/home/pi/cwh/start.sh
exit nano by pressing ctrl+x then het "Y" and enter
#Install the application Go home
cd ~
Run the script (or commands in the script) found at:
wget https://github.com/area515/Creation-Workshop-Host/blob/master/host/networkinstall.sh
chmod 777 networkinstall.sh
run the script from the GUI (don't know how to start a script for now)
or just use this code
#!/bin/bash
rm -r cwh
mkdir cwh
cd cwh
wget https://github.com/area515/Creation-Workshop-Host/raw/master/host/cwh-0.51.zip
unzip cwh-0.51.zip
chmod 777 start.sh
chmod 777 debug.sh
chmod 777 browseprinter.sh
rm cwh-0.51.zip
#Reboot sudo reboot
#Enjoy Hizzah!!! Open your browser, use the IP of your raspberry pi as "yourpi", and navigate to the following
