Going to work on my phone project for a bit. Just tool around...
Ordered a baseband from Sixfab, but something got messed up in delivery. Need to sort that out.
In the mean time, I'm going to try to install KDE Plasma Mobile onto a Raspberry Pi 3 B+.
Will post a screenshot if I can get it working.
Will livetoot it in the meantime.
(Understand I may not get anything working... just have some spare time and want to tinker around.)
Let's see if we can get #KDE #Plasma Mobile onto a #RaspberryPi.

Let's get some Soma FM DefCon station playing for some background music.

Clean up my workspace real quick...
Going to try with a base install of Raspbian Stretch Lite from:
k... a couple of things.
Attempting to configure the display via raspbian's /boot/config.txt is overridden by KDE Plasma Mobile settings (I'm not sure where yet.)
You *can* configure things in config.txt, such as GPU memory allocation, just the display settings are changed once KDE Plasma loads.
Using the @kde Plasma Mobile GUI display settings to rotate brings up the error "Sorry, your configuration could not be applied. Common reasons are that overall screen size is too big..." etc.
@tinker which screen? Does it really support a higher resolution?
@j_angliss - No, the screen only supports 800x480 (or 480x800). And that's what it's set to. It is working in landscape mode right now. Just trying to get it to flip to portrait.
@tinker gotcha. Read it as you were expecting more. Odd it's not picking up rotation settings.
@SwooshyCueb @kde - Huh. :( Alright.
Screen size is 800x480 on a 5in monitor.
"Enabled more displays than supported by your GPU" doesn't fit it, because I only have one monitor.
Time to duckduckgo this...
