Going to work on my phone project for a bit. Just tool around...
Ordered a baseband from Sixfab, but something got messed up in delivery. Need to sort that out.
In the mean time, I'm going to try to install KDE Plasma Mobile onto a Raspberry Pi 3 B+.
Will post a screenshot if I can get it working.
Will livetoot it in the meantime.
(Understand I may not get anything working... just have some spare time and want to tinker around.)
Let's see if we can get #KDE #Plasma Mobile onto a #RaspberryPi.

Let's get some Soma FM DefCon station playing for some background music.

Clean up my workspace real quick...
Going to try with a base install of Raspbian Stretch Lite from:
Updating raspbian, configuring the pi for US localization, setting up SSH, etc.
Changing the Debian repo from 'stretch' to 'buster' within apt.
AHH SHIT!!! WE'RE IN TESTING!!!
apt update && apt full-upgrade
And.... I'm going to go grab a coke while that's going on.
Ok.... that *seemed* to work...
Creating user 'phablet' and deleting the 'pi' user.
Done.
Added Plasma specific repos.
And now installing Plasma specific tools.
Fuck... that's a gig and a half's worth of data.
Glad I'm on ethernet.
Ok!!!
That seemed to work!!!
Everything is working on my monitor...
Let's see if I can get it working on my 5inch touchscreen.
Ok. Touchscreen is working, but layout is landscape.
Need to change it to portrait, but the typical adding "display_rotate = 1" to /boot/config.txt is not working.
Going to try using xrandr to rotate the screen.
