Guake is a drop-down terminal for GNOME Desktop Environment, so you just Combined with the on screen keyboard with the touchscreen you can open up apps and get some basic usage fairly quickly, albeit a bit awkwardly.Debian Packages: guake Debian packages on transit The Touch pHAT is also really cool and easy to use, very recommended for smaller projects. The only issue would be (as mentioned above) that I couldn’t get it working with fbcp to get 3D games running on it. The touchscreen works very well and is clear to view, I’d recommend this for smaller projects where HDMI/S-video out aren’t possible and also adds in touchscreen functionality without taking up any GPIO.


Let me know what you think – I’d love to look into making a tiny keyboard to add onto this one day to make typing easier, something to think of for a Model 2 design. While not totally easy to use, I really like this little build – it’s cool to be able to have a ready-to-go Pi in my pocket at all times and it looks quite cool in the little box I’ve used as a chassis.
Guake autostart portable#
I found that following the standard instructions here would result in an incompatible kernel error on a Raspberry Pi Zero W.įrom my experience with it thus far, this could be used as a handy portable Pi for some very basic tasks on the go I’m going to carry it around with me for a while and see what I can do. įinally installing the LCD is done by following the instructions here. I also reduced the vertical size of the task bar to its smallest point.Īlso the terminal text would need to be reduced this can be done by following these instructions. I did that by doing the following as described by a helpful forum member. You can grab the modified file from my GitHub as well as the autostart file to copy into ~/.config/lxsession/ LXDE / (overwriting the current one), this will launch Guake as well as fire up the python file on launch of X windows.īefore installing and setting up the USB LCD I though it would be prudent to reduce the font and icon sizes so they will fit better on the small screen. Now I wanted to have the keys do some basic commands, so I grabbed launcher.py from the above link and modified it so that the buttons do the following:
Guake autostart software#
I found this really good piece of software called Guake, which is essentially like the drop down console in Quake but for command line on a Linux box. I also wanted to have a more seamless terminal for entering commands in alongside the usual terminals in Raspbian.
Guake autostart install#
The first necessity was an on-screen keyboard, the first one I tried was Matchbox Keyboard which was good but I found the more compact xvkbd to be more suitable: sudo apt install xbkbd I had a look around for handy software that I thought would benefit the small touch screen to make things a bit easier.
