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.
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...
damnit... my monitor name has a space in it. I FUCKING HATE SPACES!!!!
This is gonna shit over everything isn't it...?
well....
Running:
kscreen-doctor output."ADA HDMI-A-1-1".rotation.left
*seems* to work. The json rotation is changed from 1 to 2.
But nothing on the screen changes.
A reboot doesn't do anything and the json is changed back to "rotation": 1
Hmmm....
