Showeq 6 and Raspberry Pi 4

[faster100%]

Heya Overkill,

I love that nickname, I am going to use it next time. : )

I agree, but I wanted the 8g and $15 more I do not care. I am sure I get bored with this someday and move on, maybe build arcade system.

Found it odd that is the only thing you saw on my post. I was hoping for more information. I guess to each is own.

Can I use the Ubuntu Desktop image from the raspberry site ?

I only tried the Raspbian. I included steps on how to get it to work in the first post. I didnt think I had to repeat them.

Give Ubuntu a try and let us know of the results.

Edit: Guess Ubuntu was tried and failed. There may be a 3rd party build QT4, just like the later raspberry pi 3b+ build for QT3. Ill look into it.

The thing is, I cannot find where to download Raspbian. Is this the name of the image? I see where to go, but once I go the site. I do not see Raspbian image anywhere.

Edit: added libx11-dev that was not installed. Added it to the list. My default install had libxext-dev already installed, but if configure fails, try installing it.

Brand new Raspberry pi 4 that I got today from Amazon, after updating and upgrading everything, I needed to install libxext-dev as well as the other packages you noted above. Worked great.

With a 64-bit install of Raspberry Pi OS from https://downloads.raspberrypi.org/raspios_arm64/ the showeq6 configure script required some help finding the architecture and qt libs.

I've had success running configure with the following:

./configure --build=aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu --with-qt-libraries=/usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu

Of course it's overkill, but I thought it may be of interest to anyone else with the 8GB RAM version of the Pi4.

These command line switches aren't necessary when using an updated config.guess file. I copied the file /usr/share/misc/config.guess into my svn checkout and ./configure proceeds without error.

config.guess is provided by the autotools-dev package

For QT4 in Ubuntu, you can try to build this and see if it works. https://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/blfs/cong...c-4.5.3.tar.gz the QT3 version worked for Stretch on Pi3b+.

Thank you so much. I am at work, so when I go home tonight let the fun start.

I finally got the 5-port hub from Amazon, and ShowEQ is working great. I guess maps are not included?

I guess time to find them, lol. Any good source for them?

I found this set. FYI, this forums sets view for only 1 month history, hence why I couldn't find anything, lol.

Thanks for the guide. I have this working on my pi 4 with x11 forwarding. works like a dream, except one thing.. i am getting frequent segmentation fault errors, more than I got on CentOS 7. Is there anything one can do to prevent these errors, or reduce their frequency?

Make sure fast machine and session tracking is on. The problem most likely is session tracking.

That appears to have fixed it. thank you

Back in the day, almost no one ran more than 1 instance. Even when they did windowed mode, most people couldnt run more than one instance. Usually you had two computers running it. It used to take a beefy machine to run two. Now I run 6 with ease. Session tracking focuses on one set of zone packets so it doesnt get confused and crash.
