Activate keyboard

    Hello,

    first of all, thanks for the build :) I installed it on a PI rev B with power adapter 2A :(
    I have the screen, the icon "connected" but when I click on the keyboard nothing happens. Did I miss something ?

    Many thanks

      Which version Pi did you install it on? TinyPilot requires a Pi 4B. It won't work on an older Pi.

          Thanks Michael for your prompt relpy.
          Iy says that all variants PI are able to work. I have a PI1 rev B.

          I was wondering if an Odroid C2 could work ?

            What source says this?

                  Oh, there's been a misunderstanding. I think this is the line you're referring to:

                  Raspberry Pi 4 (all variants work)

                  I meant all variants of the Pi 4, so 1 GB, 2 GB, 4 GB, etc.

                  There's a Github thread tracking attempts to install TinyPilot on alternate hardware:

                      I got it, clearer. Do you think it will work on odroid C2 ?

                        It definitely won't work out of the box with ODroid C2, but the hardware technically supports it. You'd have to tinker with it to figure out how to get TinyPilot working on that board.
