Thanks for joining in on this Dave Pickles.
As can be seen from the title of my post this post was in response to my experience of trying to build TVH for my own i7 PC with onboard Intel graphics running on Ubuntu 22.04 64bit.
I spent a considerable amount of time trawling through numerous posts with many irrelevant comments until I found enough information to successfully compile TVH for my own setup. I decided to share my working solution here for the benefit of other beginners in the shape of simple copy/paste commands. I was hoping others would try this out and report back for the benefit of other beginners
I knew that as soon this post would be seen the immediate response would be “can I use these instructions to build TVH for my RPI4”. Again I don’t own one of these so I’ve no way of knowing.
Now that you have joined the discussion could you possibly provide a similar process for building for the RPI4. Believe me there’s plenty of demand for it. The danger of providing build instructions for the RPI4 in the body of this post is it will get completely lost and won’t show up in a search.
There’s so many new RPI4 users coming across TVH for the first time with little or no Linux experience who would appreciate some form of automated solution for building and installing TVH on an RPI4. Contrary to what I’ve read here and elsewhere TVH is far from dead.
