OpenMV IDE v2.8.1 on Raspberry Pi 4

Hi,

I just tried to load OpenMV IDE 2.8.1 on a Raspberry Pi 4, and got the following error:

hybotics@tinker:~ $ which openmvide /opt/OpenMV_IDE/bin/openmvide hybotics@tinker:~ $ openmvide openmvide: error while loading shared libraries: libGLESv2.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory hybotics@tinker:~

I do not have that library and it is not available in the repos.

You need to run the setup script. That library has to be added to the Pi.

Thank you. I did not realize that script was there.
Now, I am getting:

hybotics@tinker:~
$ which openmvide
/opt/OpenMV_IDE/bin/openmvide
hybotics@tinker:~
$ openmvide
Could not initialize egl display
Aborted
hybotics@tinker:~
$ 

I think I need a little more help. :smiley: :nerd_face:

The script was designed to fix all these issues. However, it’s hard for me to keep it updated all the time:

You’ll need to do some digging yourself. I don’t know why the script isn’t working to fix all issues.

Hi,

I do not have the expertise to do that. It seems that something like this that affects somebody’s ability to use software should be a higher priority to fix. Just my opinion.

Sure, there’s quite a bit of stuff to fix though at all times. We need users help and support to do everything. I don’t have an unlimited amount of time to work on the project. Note that this is not my day job running OpenMV.
