If you choose to run Ubuntu, I would recommend using the Desktopify Project: https://github.com/wimpysworld/desktopify I would revisit Raspberry Pi OS (64-bit) after it comes out of beta. I feel like it has the memory footprint, configuration and the optimizations that make sense for my use case. Fo...

Chromium 83 sucks for browsing and YT's, 80 was much better.
Time to go back to Gentoo64 until it gets fixed.

Do these instuctions work for Raspberry PI OS 64-bit?

RealVNC-server arm64 is working now.

The way things are going, the beta will be over soon.

Just for fun I tried to compile FreeCAD version 0.19 from git on the beta software Raspi OS 64-bit based on Debian. sudo apt install build-essential libtool lsb-release cmake cmake-gui cmake-curses-gui libboost-date-time-dev libboost-dev libboost-filesystem-dev libboost-graph-dev libboost-iostreams-...

I made the mistake of playing with the GPU memory allotment and caused my 8gb RPI4 not to boot. The max is 512mb, and if you set it to 896 it doesn't boot. I thought with so much ram I could max out the GPU, but after reading some forum posts it seems anything over 256mb is overkill. I made several ...

Temporary RealVNC server alternative for Raspi OS 64bit until a aarch64 version is available. Tried vino with much success for the server, it is comparable to realvnc but you lose the ability of the cloud connection. Need dconf-editor to enable and adjust settings. sudo apt install vino dconf-editor...

I am enjoying the Raspberry Pi OS 64-bit and I think it is pretty awesome. Freecad works now, so that's a huge plus for me. VNC-server is probably the thing I miss the most and I hope that is temporary. I think this will be requested by many. Minecraft-Pi is not in the 64-bit either. Not a deal brea...

FreeCad works now!

This is awesome!!! Now the entry cost to engineering is ridiculously low.

Thank you Raspberry Pi Team!

Code: Select all

sudo apt install freecad

Does this mean we can download the update script linked above to fix 5ghz wifi (among other things)?

Try setting country code in /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf

mine has this line...

Does this mean we can download the update script linked above to fix 5ghz wifi (among other things)? The script is for a home-brew version of Ubuntu 18.04 that works on a Raspberry Pi 4. The individual(s?) working on this seem to have worked out more details than the official ubuntu 19.10 team. If ...

I noticed some apps don't work with 64-bit kernel.

Sonic-Pi
Minecraft-Pi (It quit working on 32-bit as well)

I realize this is a test and not meant for everyone.

I also noticed the wifi in Ubuntu 19.10 does not support 5Ghz band. Probably lots of bugs left that Raspbian has addressed.
It also locks up after an hour or so with my setup.

I will stick with Raspbian for now.

leggazoid

I agree with Jamesh about Ubuntu support should solve the issue. My question is who is responsible for mainline kernel progress and bug fixes? This is not easy for even Google ChromeOS to do with their seemingly unlimited resources. A lot of chromebooks are on kernel 3.14 version. My broadwell based...

The problem is the USB ports don't work. You can SSH into the Pi 4 with: User: ubuntu Pass: ubuntu It will then ask for new password. This only works if you have ethernet cable connected. I logged in by ssh with ubuntu/ubuntu and the changed default password, it works but why USB port doesn't work?...

I forgot to mention it is version 77 of the chromium browser.

May we have a ChromiumOS category here?

Thank you for your consideration!

Is a 64 bit gcc package not available (for compilation on the pi4 - I'm aware of cross-compile options ...) yet, or did I miss it?

Best regards,

As of this writing, I'm having to tell users who want to play ZDoom on Raspberry Pi that they must compile SDL2 from scratch or install the RetroPie SDL 2.0.3 packages, even though SDL 2 is in Jessie, simply because the packages included in Jessie are that broken. Same story here with Scummvm... Va...
