Can't install on Fedora 23 #42

Closed Pant closed 8 years ago

Pant commented 8 years ago

I get this error when I am trying to run command as described in the readme file for non-debian distros: 

make -s all install

The output seems like this issue but i didn't find any answers. Is it possible to install this driver on Fedora? Thanks in advance.

terricain commented 8 years ago

Does this help

Also do you have all the required packages installed.

Pant commented 8 years ago

No package dbus-headers exist. I have dbus-devel, dbus-glib-devel, kernel-headers, and kernel-devel installed.

Pant commented 8 years ago

Could you give me a list with ALL the required packages needed?

terricain commented 8 years ago

Run make clean Then pastebin the output of make (not make install)

pablomenino commented 8 years ago

Hi, I downloaded the source code today and compile under Fedora 23 whit no problems. I go to try to manually install. The installation script is not intended for this distribution?

There is any info for installing on Fedora?

terricain commented 8 years ago

@pablomenino can you give me a list of packages you had to install?

The install script isn't meant for fedora but as I have some free time, I'll make a fedora VM and create a script to create a .rpm for you. Having a list of packages would speed this up as the names are different to Debian/Ubuntu.

pablomenino commented 8 years ago

Hi Terry, I see that the Makefile only copy some files but not all, I go to try manually but if you can test to create a RPM Package that go to be perfect, let me now if you need to test something.

@pablomenino am attempting to get fc23 in a VM, once I've done that I'll get on creating a an RPM and then a script to make the RPM. Ideally I want to get it working with either akmod or dkms as then the system will recompile the driver when you update the kernel.

Pant commented 8 years ago

I still cannot install under fedora 23 64 bit and kernel-4.2.8-300.fc23.x86_64. I tried to install the packages that @pablomenino said he installed but nothing changed. Here is the output of make (after make clean). http://pastebin.com/p7xdBKSD Thanks for your help. I am here if you need me to test something else.

pablomenino commented 8 years ago

@terrycain , yes that go to be great.

Hi @Pant, ensure that you have the gcc packages and the kernel-devel package for your kernel version (In my case the kernel is 4.3.3-300.fc23). I test this whit a new fresh install of Fedora 23 (installed from Fedora-Live-Workstation) and works fine.

GCC Packages: sudo dnf install gcc gcc-c++ gcc-objc make

Kernel Devel sudo dnf install kernel-devel

I don't see the version 4.2.8 for the package kernel-devel on the fedora repository, may be you can find it on the package Datadase https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/

terricain commented 8 years ago

There seems to be issues with Virtualbox and fc23 so I'm using fc21 but everything should work the same.

terricain commented 8 years ago

Ok @Pant I had the same error as you. Try dnf install jq dbus-devel SDL2 SDL2-devel SDL2_image SDL2_image-devel fftw-libs-double fftw-libs-single gcc gcc-c++ make kernel-devel then do make clean then make and as always pastebin the output ;) Also make sure you've downloaded the latest changes from the repository.

I have it compiled. Time to learn how to .rpm

terricain commented 8 years ago

Ok making an RPM was far too much hassle. You can try make fedora_install to install it (there's no uninstall yet)

Pant commented 8 years ago

Still not working. I have install all the packages you mentioned (some were already installed).

Output of pkg-config --libs fftw3

Pant commented 8 years ago

pkg-config --libs fftw3 : http://pastebin.com/z9zCKrtq Perhaps this is the problem

terricain commented 8 years ago

Ok well the issue is that libfft is not installed or LD can't find it. On my fc21 VM locate libfftw returns some paths on /usr/lib64, what does it return for you?

If locate returns nothing try find / -name 'libfftw*' 2>/dev/null

Pant commented 8 years ago

I runned updatedb first locate libfftw: http://pastebin.com/FsWqdT3g

terricain commented 8 years ago

Most strange, you have the same libraries I have. Try sudo ldconfig -v <- it prints a ton of output. Also sudo ldconfig -v | grep fft

First one will tell me what paths its searching. 2nd one will say if its found libfft

Pant commented 8 years ago

ldconfig -v: http://pastebin.com/QNPV5yp9 ldconfig -v | grep fft: http://pastebin.com/y2SuB1L6

terricain commented 8 years ago

Ok so ld is finding the library. Did you try sudo ldconfig; make clean; make ?

Pant commented 8 years ago

Just tried here is the output of make: http://pastebin.com/T9w2bH8d ldconfig did not gave any output. I think make does not have any errors. Make fedora_install does.

pablomenino commented 8 years ago

Hi @terrycain , for the Install Python3 library, the directory is different on Fedora. /usr/lib/python3.4/site-packages/

The driver work's fine (Manual Install. and I can change the effect using the bash scripts), I go to try the daemon and the GUI and let you know.

terricain commented 8 years ago

Ahh yes, some use dist-packages and some use site-packages. Will change that.

terricain commented 8 years ago

@Pant Try sudo make fedora_install with the latest changes as of now (fixed mistake @pablomenino found)

As in theory sudo make fedora_install should work at least it should compile all the files sucessfully and then might just fail at installation.

pablomenino commented 8 years ago

@terrycain , for the first test, I install manually all the files, and I can confirm that the driver and the razer_chroma_controller is working fine. I can change the effects and brightness whit this tool, no errors, (later i go to try installing whit Makefile).

I have some problems whit python scripts, but I have to resolve some dependencies for this scripts, I let you know what I found, thanks.

terricain commented 8 years ago

Cheers @pablomenino, I updated the makefile to put the python scripts in the correct place now ;)

Pant commented 8 years ago

I still have errors. I run: git clone https://github.com/pez2001/razer_chroma_drivers.git cd razer_chroma_drivers/ make fedora_install Here is the output: http://pastebin.com/79ea4R45

pablomenino commented 8 years ago

@terrycain , there is one more package to install, whit this package the razer_tray_applet.py and the chroma_controller.py work's perfect.

Install sudo dnf install libappindicator-gtk3

Packagee info: libappindicator-gtk3.x86_64

terricain commented 8 years ago

ahhhhhhhh it all goes back to this

Package fftw3 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `fftw3.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'fftw3' found

Basically, make works as it just skips the fft library. The install expects it to be there, but it wasn't compiled as pkg_config isn't working propperly. The install is working technically, it just cant find the file we expect to exist.

More importantly do you have fftw-devel installed???????????

Pant commented 8 years ago

fftw-devel was the problem. Now there is an other error but i have no clue why. make fedora_install: http://pastebin.com/rf53hs5s

terricain commented 8 years ago

Ahh yeah, that wouldn't be an issue if we had an uninstall script. Manually remove /etc/systemd/system/razer_bcd.service

Have added -f to the command that should solve that.

terricain commented 8 years ago

@pablomenino So do you reckon this would be the package list? Ill add it to the readme soon.

jq dbus-devel SDL2 SDL2-devel SDL2_image SDL2_image-devel fftw-libs-double fftw-libs-single gcc gcc-c++ make kernel-devel dbus-devel fftw-devel libappindicator-gtk3

Pant commented 8 years ago

So now if the driver is installed how should i start using it?

terricain commented 8 years ago

Has the whole install worked? Some rubbish about dkms should have appeared?

Pant commented 8 years ago

I run make fedora_install and the output is the one i told you before. Is there something else I should do and I am missing?

pablomenino commented 8 years ago

Yes @terrycain , I double check, whit that packages all can be compiled and works.

pablomenino commented 8 years ago

@Pant , you manually removed the file /etc/systemd/system/razer_bcd.service ?

Pant commented 8 years ago

Yes I did!

terricain commented 8 years ago

@pablomenino that file should just be a symlink to the one in /lib And cheers for the test

lm92 commented 8 years ago

Hi, I'm not sure if I should open a new issue or just post this here, seems related...

I'm running Fedora 23, installed the following dependencies:

dbus-devel SDL2 SDL2-devel SDL2_image SDL2_image-devel fftw-libs-double fftw-libs-single gcc gcc-c++ make kernel-devel dbus-devel fftw-devel libappindicator-gtk3

$ sudo make fedora_install gives me: http://pastebin.com/Y9x3LS4F

The DKMS stuff is normal, yes?

Then, when I try to start the service it fails, systemctl statur razer_bcd.service outputs: http://pastebin.com/FmCyWAWq

Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks in advance!

terricain commented 8 years ago

Have you tried rebooting. And no the DKMS stuff shouldn't error, you need to install a DKMS package though I cant remember the exact one but it might just be called dkms, its not required but it becomes very helpful when you update kernels

lm92 commented 8 years ago

Rebooting didn't help, but installing dkms and re-compiling did it! I'm not running the nvidia proprietary driver on this machine, which requires DKMS, so I forgot I didn't have it...

New problem however. When I try python razer_tray_applet.py, I get: http://pastebin.com/s65nswZg

python chroma_controller.py gives: http://pastebin.com/XifZcF9j

Also, is there any way to enable macro keys just by using razer_bcd_controller?

Thanks

lm92 commented 8 years ago

Ok, I forgot that Python 3 won't be default in Fedora until 24, so sudo python3 chroma_controller.py works!

However, sudo python3 razer_tray_applet.py now gives: http://pastebin.com/Us1JmNpk

pablomenino commented 8 years ago

Hi @lm92 , for the Python script you need to install libappindicator-gtk3.

sudo dnf install libappindicator-gtk3

lm92 commented 8 years ago

Hi @pablomenino . libappindicator-gtk3 was installed. I restarted a gnome extension (TopIcons, places tray applets on a much saner place than gnome's default) and it now works! The critical error in the terminal output remains, but the app works normally.

Thanks, everyone!

PS: Does anyone know of an easy way to make the 'Enable macro keys' option persistent across reboots?

terricain commented 8 years ago

Yeah the critical error can be ignored.

@lm92 Thats probably a feature request ;). I do want to add that but am busy at the moment. Ask @lah7. One solution can be to put echo -n "1" >/sys/bus/hid/drivers/razerkbd/KEYBOARD_DIR/macro_keys` in a startup file somewhere but that command requires root.

lm92 commented 8 years ago

@terrycain I might do something like that, I'm not too concerned about security on this machine.

PS: Thanks for making this, it is the definitive razer driver for Linux. Even under Windows it would be a nice alternative to their cloud based thing. I'd love to see on-the-fly macro recording supported, but I imagine it to be the hardest part to reverse engineer...
