Re: [sc-users] problem compiling raspberry pi 2

Hi Michael,

Headless SC is not a challenge on the RPi1.

On the RPi2, with Jessie Lite, I installed supercollider 3.6.6 which was unsurprisingly not working, first because of QT ("QPixmap: Cannot create a QPixmap when no GUI is being used"). I found a related thread pointing here:

https://github.com/supercollider/supercollider/issues/867

So, I did: sudo apt-get install xvfb

And could start sclang with this:

/usr/bin/xvfb-run --server-args="-screen 0, 1280x800x24" /usr/bin/sclang "$@"

Sclang was working fine, but the server wouldn't start (I think because of old jack version).

I'm not sure if anyone has managed to get SC working properly on the RPi2. I guess I should probably try 3.6.6 again, and compile a newer jack, see if that works…

Best,

Stelios

Hi Stelios, ;)

for now just a quick note:
regarding headless systems would this be an issue on a later stage, or how would you approach this?
