Errors on Fresh Install #11

Closed theblanchard closed 5 years ago

theblanchard commented 5 years ago

I'm having trouble installing and setting this up. I have a fresh install of Raspbian, and have only installed this single python app.

I am unable to find python2 using apt-get, I have installed 2.7 & 3, with no success.

Running python2 StageDisplay.py or python2.7 StageDisplay.py yields the following:

Running python3 StageDisplay.py yields this:

Please advise, I'd really love to get this up and running, but my python knowledge is limited.

Hi, I think it's not a Python problem. The python version is right, but basing on what I see (but tell me if I'm wrong) you are trying to run the application under console, without a X interface. You should install or enable the Desktop Environment (LXDE is the default) than run the script from that.

Running directly from the Pi fixed the issue. Thanks!
