Error running GC on Rasbian Strech

BlueManRising opened this issue · 3 comments

Currently running Kivy on Pi 3B+, got all the way to the program running, if i keep the user input for Keyboard and Mouse (without the #), i can move the canvas around while clicking the mouse and dragging, but i cannot seem to figure out how to get the mouse to work anywhere else on the screen. There is no pointer icon, and i am running it on a Raspberry Pi touch screen with a keyboard and mouse currently hooked up to it.

If i place the # and disable the input command, then i completely lock myself out of the program.

any one able to get this working on a 3B+? right now the Kivipie does not support the 3B+ unfortunately so i had to install kivy directly to Rasbian Stretch.

If anyone has any ideas, i would love to hear it, i am going to work on getting this working though so we can then update the "HOW TO" section and get a tutorial for rasbian.

Thanks!!!

Attempted:

mouse = mouse
mtdev_%(name)s = probesysfs,provider=mtdev
hid_%(name)s = probesysfs,provider=hidinput

no luck....
will try to delete kivy again and see if the following tutorial cant get it to run correctly for stretch...

Issues resolved!! well, for using the touch screen, still mouse is not working, but you can click on the screen if your using a rasberry pi screen.

instructions will be added in a commit.

Updated the Wiki Rasberry Pi install.
