Raspberry 7" Touchscreen #1

Open dizzwold opened 2 years ago

dizzwold commented 2 years ago

I have a RPi 4b 4gb with Raspberry 7' touchscreen (no hdmi port). I've installed all the relevant packages, but after the Candle splash png and mp4 I get a blank, but backlit screen. Evertime I run the command in seashell; curl -sSL www.candlesmarthome.com/tools/kiosk.txt | sudo bash I get an error; TypeError: Network Error when attempting to fetch resource.

I wonder what it could be. I tested all the URL's in the kiosk.txt file, and they seem to be working ok.

That TypeError: Network Errormessage can be safely ignored. Just let the command run for a few more minutes, and your raspberry pi will reboot.

There was a problem in the install script. That has now been remedied. On a fresh install, and just running the kiosk install comman once, it should work perfectly now.
