Ubuntu install question #33

Somewhat off topic for your app... I downloaded the pertinent ubuntu desktop 21.10 os for my Raspberry pi 4b as directed. However it hangs on launching... is it possible my Pis are 32 bit- and if so, will your app work in that os?

This is probably a problem with Gnome or Ubuntu itself. I had a similar issue with Fedora on a Raspberry Pi 3b+. It failed to boot because it needed 4 GB or more of RAM an older RPi models bring only 1 GB.

Raspberry Pi model 4 comes with an arm64 CPU, therefore it can boot both 32 and 64 bit arm OSs.

Try using the deb package for QPrompt 1.0.0 once again on Raspberry Pi OS 64 bit. I just fixed issue #28 by building QPrompt on Debian 11 arm64. It should work on Raspberry Pi OS.

Wiil do, thank you. I thought there were performance issues with your apps using raspian 64? On Monday, January 10, 2022, 11:03:44 PM EST, Javier O. Cordero Pérez @.***> wrote:

No, the issue was particularly with Flatpak on the Raspberry Pi. Deb installations perform faster because there's no container abstraction between the app and the OS.

Installed and working! Thank you!
