Autostart on boot? (RPi) #43

Open submacmedia opened 4 years ago

submacmedia commented 4 years ago

(apologies for being a total noob) If I've read the readme right, installing the pre-built debian package should set the qmsk-e2-tally.service running using /etc/default/qmsk-e2-tally for configuration, and I infer from that that the program should run on boot using the gpio and http configurations outlined in the /etc/default/qmsk-e2-tally, but in order to get it to work I still have to ssh into the rpi and fire off a command line using sudo and outlining all the options. Am I misunderstanding or did I miss a step? (Do I have to set the auto-login to "qmsk-e2" user instead of pi? and if so, what's the default password for that user?) .. as it is, after firing the command line, it works great, big thanks to the devs!

The .deb package only installs the qmsk-e2-tally.service systemd unit, but it does not start or enable it. This should probably be mentioned in the README.

Try the following commands:
