Unable to install driver on DietPi 64 bit Bullseye #175

Closed Geppetto24 closed 1 week ago

Geppetto24 commented 1 month ago

I'm attempting to install the DeskPi Pro V2 driver to a current DietPi 64 bit Bullseye installation (Raspberry Pi 4B with 4 GB mem, SD card), using the instructions from https://github.com/DeskPi-Team/deskpi, but install.sh appears to be missing from the repository. Does anyone know of a workaround solution? Thank you.

Hi Geppetto24, I have already fixed the bug, please download latest repository and try again.

Thank you for the update.   I installed as directed on a fresh dietpi 64bit bookworm installation with amiberry.  The driver did install, however, the fan does not turn on nor does the power button turn red upon power off.  Does the driver only work with bullseye, or is amiberry causing a conflict perhaps?   Thank you.

Could you please try to check if there is a /dev/ttyUSB0 device has been recognized by your DietPi OS? Beacuse the fan is controlled by the MCU on daughter board and this device is created by adding dtoverlay=dwc2,dr_mode=host parameter in /boo/firmware/config.txt file, and if your DietPi OS supports the dtoverlay, it will works properly, and at default, if your CPU's temperature has not been reached to the temperature that you specified in /etc/deskpi.conf file ,it will not turn on the fan, please try to execute deskpi-config --> 4 to try if the fan can be triggered. and the safe_cut_off_power service will be triggered once you shutting down the system, for example, when you execute sudo init 0 or sudo shutdown -h now , or just click shutdown system icon in the menu. and deskpi pro v3 can support most Linux system, but it needs to install driver to control the fan and the power supply indicator. There are some tips for you:

  1. Make sure the OS can support dtoverlay=dwc2,dr_mode=host to genetrate /dev/ttyUSB0 device in your OS.
  2. Make sure your account has permission to operate the /dev/ttyUSB0 device
  3. Install the deskpi pro driver by executing the shell script on this repository.
  4. Make sure the system file has been created successfully in /etc/systemd/system/deskpi.service and it will copy the binary executable file to your /usr/bin/pwmFanControl64 from repository's installation/drivers/c/ folder. and there are several source file in that folder ,you can compile it by yourself too.
  5. Make sure the system file /etc/systemd/system/deskpi.saft_cut_off_power.service has been created successfully, and it will copy a binary file from the same folder to pwmFanControl64 file.
  6. After installation ,please reboot your Raspberry Pi and open a terminal and typing deskpi-config --> 4 to check if the fan can running in full speed mode, and input 5 to stop the fan, and then you can input 6 to create a file in /etc/deskpi.conf, it will require you input the threshold of temperature and the speed of fan from 0-100, for example : 45 # temperature 75 # fan speed in pwm signal 50 # temperatrue 100 # fan speed in pwm signal 55 # temperatrue 100 # fan speed in pwm signal 60 # temperatrue 100 # fan speed in pwm signal
  7. Do remember restart deskpi.service after using deskpi-config command 
    sudo systemctl restart deskpi.service`

    Hope it will help you out. have a nice day!
