Sudo with papertty? #75

Closed Adam90a closed 3 years ago

Adam90a commented 3 years ago

EDIT: sudo is working now, not sure what I did

I am stuck. I try to use sudo and get an error...

sudo papertty --driver EPD4IN2 terminal sudo: papertty: command not found

...and without....

papertty --driver EPD4IN2 terminal Loading PIL font /home/pi/.local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/papertty/resources/tom-thumb.pil. Font size is ignored. No read access to /dev/vcsa1 - maybe run with sudo?

.....any suggestions?

If you fixed this please update us on how, so that people who has the same issue in the future can figure it out (me)

This looks like a cli usage thing. It's likely that '. (current directory) is not on the path for root, it is for the user invoking sudo. The solution for running it under sudo on this instance would be: sudo ./papertty

Thank you for the response, I'll try that! And apologies for my initially annoyed response, I wrote it at 3AM after having tried to get PaperTTY working for a few hours

Did you ever get this resolved?

Adam90a commented 1 year ago

Nope, gave up
