Re: [Ql-Users] Instrutions for running SMSQmulator on Raspberry Pi

[Ian Burkinshaw]

Hi Derek

Entered java -jar, works fine now. Just seems to be an extention of the 
command line.


Have a desktop shortcut as well now. Plus my own custom QXL.WIN files, all 
fully working now.


I still have a lot to learn about Raspberry Pi and Linux.

Best Regards

Ian

Hi Ian,

If you open up the File Manager and select the SMSQmulator.jar file. 
Performing a right click to get the properties of the file. There should 
be a tab called "Open With" to define the application to open the .jar


Just point toward the Java Runtime and the double clicking the Jar file 
will load the Java runtime and then the jar file.


Just like in Windows

Derek

Just tried it again without the sudo command, and now it runs. Not sure
what was going on there.

Hi Ian,

'ls -l' to show detailed listing will show who owns files.

Just because it is in your directory doesn't mean you own it, you could
have accidentally done something like 'sudo unzip smsqemulator.zip'

There is nothing in SMSQmulator or java that requires root to run so
something is wrong.

Hi Ian,

Ah, isn't computing fun? Who ever said it was a science?

Anyway,  good, as Graeme said, there's no need to run it as root.


Have fun.

Hi Marcos

Checked Java was there and correct with $ java -version
That proved to be OK.

Then $ sudo java -jar /home/pi/Downloads/SMSQmulator.jar

Also forgot that the operating system is case sensitive, the 'D' in Download
being the culprit.

Still not able to double click on the file in file manager to launch.

So the trouble was I needed to start it as a super user (sudo) and case
sensitive in the command line. Also the pi needs to be running in GUI mode.
So entering the command line in LXterminal.

So now looking into setting up a short cut to launch from the GUI.

Running on a Pi2 and the speed is not bad as far as I can see.

Making it portable, by running off batteries, using a USB power block. Give 
a few hours operation between charges. The touch screen removes the need for 
a mouse and Florence the on screen keyboard and also setting the config to 
boot straight to the GUI.

Ian

What was the problem?


Working is a Pi with the 7" touchscreen and on screen keyboard
Florence. so a portable QL with no keyboard or mouse.


What did you use to make the Pi portable?  I built my own portable Pi
and I'm very happy with it, I'm using it as my main computer.
