A couple of days ago I got the idea to install JMRI on my Raspberry Pi, and even found a script that’s supposed to automate it.
Unfortunately it appears that script was last updated in 2013 and is not entirely working (it’s bombing out starting VNC). I think I will have to table this project unless I can find someone that can help. I’m certainly not a Linux expert and I’m feel like I’m wasting time that could be spent working on other things.
On the plus side I was able to get all my feeders soldered now I just need to do a double check that there aren’t already any shorts and start on the bus.

Hey, so it’s been a few years and I didn’t even realise that people were using my scripts, but if this is still an issue (I’m guessing that after 4 years it isn’t!) then feel free to log a bug and I’ll troubleshoot as I’m getting back into the hobby now!
