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.

• Install RXTX and xserver utils
• Disable sleep/screensaver
• Setup application to start on boot
• Install application
• Reboot

##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, 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/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/start.sh
