Can you run pi desktop gui on fluiddpi os or mainsail os and if so how do u go about enabling that option

#

Zero reason to do that imo. It's just using CPU you don't need used.

#

Can you give us a bigger picture, what are you trying to do, and why do you want a desktop on there?

atomic anvil Dec 8, 2023, 6:49 PM

#

That would necessitate a monitor connected all the time, to be able to use the desktop. Same with kb and mouse.

I'm having issues connecting headless to my network

#

And I just want it to connect

#

The pi isn't launching with the fresh install of the new SD card image

#

You'd just need a monitor connected then. Desktop wouldn't get you anything

#

Yea my adapter cable is lost ATM for the micro hdmi

#

I'm looking for it but I figured If I found if I found it I could just desktop and skip the Hassel of connecting to the network

Have you setup the wifi when installing the image? Sometimes it's just easier to reinstall.

torn urchin Dec 8, 2023, 11:39 PM

#

Yes I tried everything

I am having this exact issue with a fresh install from the imager version 1.8.1. I cannot get wifi connection.

#

no way to hardwire?

#

can you set up your phones hotspot?

molten terrace Dec 9, 2023, 12:36 AM

#

Ethernet works for me. Just tried hotspot and nothing shows up under connected devices.

atomic anvil Dec 9, 2023, 12:37 AM

#

well if ethernet works, ssh into it that way and verify the wifi stuff from there

molten terrace Dec 9, 2023, 1:55 AM

#

I can see the wifi signals and edited the wpa_supplicant.conf file again... I had an extra space in my ssid I didn't realize was there. finally got it.

#

I hope this helps @torn urchin

#

well now! good catch

molten terrace Dec 9, 2023, 2:02 AM

#

on to my next problem then.😆

A desktop isn't really a useful way to run an off-network printer in most cases

#

More likely, you want klipperscreen (which is a specialised desktop, more or less)

#

And possibly my plugin 😛
