Thank you Theo for this information! I tried these settings in systemd service file and here are my results: 1. I had to change TTYPath to /dev/tty2. With /dev/tty1, I had the following problems: 1. My application crashed after displaying first or second test ima

Re: [pygame] How to prevent mouse initialization in Pygame

In case anybody interested, I faced some troubles running pygame application as a systemd service under limited user. Application runs fine for 5-10 minutes, but after that the screen becomes black and pygame graphics is not displayed. Running as root didn’t fix the problem. The SDL version u

Re: [pygame] How to prevent mouse initialization in Pygame

In case somebody interested: running pygame with modified SDL as a systemd service succeeded without any surprises. I also hid mouse cursor with help of pygame.mouse.set_visible(False) call. My next task to solve is hiding blinking text cursor. суббота, 22 июля 2017 г., 19:51:22 UTC+3 пользо

Re: [pygame] How to prevent mouse initialization in Pygame

Good news: I succeeded with commenting out SDL code that deals with keyboard, and after that I was able to run pygame framebuffer graphics without root rights! But there is a small issue: there is a text cursor blanking at the bottom of the screen. By the way, it turned out that /dev/console

Hi, I'm not able to follow along as I don't have a Pi, but since I see attempts to dissect the behaviour of the SDL code via strace, I thought it worth pointing out that this source code is available and need not be treated as a complete black box. You can download it from the SDL site. My links be

Why not just programmatically move the mouse offscreen? Or change the mouse cursor to something invisible. Both are easy under wx python, im guessing easy with pygame too. > On Jul 5, 2017, at 4:22 PM, Greg Ewing wrote: > > Роман Мещеряков wrote: >> I instruct pygame to not use X Window s

Yeah that's not going to work because the attempted imports just fail. If you think having the mouse not initialized might help, change your call to pygame.init() into calls like pygame.display.init(). On Jul 5, 2017 10:33, "Роман Мещеряков" wrote: > > среда, 5 июля 2017 г., 3:39:28 UTC+3 пользо

The best SE to post this would probably be stack overflow. There's quite a few pygame questions. Do you always require sudo to run, or only if using ssh? On Jun 30, 2017 1:29 PM, "Роман Мещеряков" wrote: > Hi all, > > In my Python application running on Raspberry Pi under Raspbian I use > Pygam

[pygame] How to prevent mouse initialization in Pygame

Hi all, In my Python application running on Raspberry Pi under Raspbian I use Pygame to display some software-generated images via framebuffer. I don’t need any input from mouse, keyboard or any other devices, all I need is a convenient way of using framebuffer. I initialize Pygame in th
