Title: RTL-SDR on piCore 12
Post by: kanzlr on June 10, 2021, 09:40:33 PM
Hi,

first: thanks for the awesome work on tiny core (and piCore), I enjoy using it every day :)

now to the issue:
I'd like to run RTL_433 on my raspberry, but noticed a few dependencies are missing, that I think where available for Tiny Core in the past. These are:


and actually the mosquitto-client, but I could build this myself

is it possible to add the libs/sdr to the repository for tce-load?
are they available in any other form that I missed?

thanks a lot
Bernhard

The rtl-sdr and rtl-sdr-dev extensions are present in the piCore-7.x repo:

http://tinycorelinux.net/7.x/armv7/tcz/

libusb and libusb-dev are present in the piCore-12.x repos

You could try downloading rtl-sdr and rtl-sdr-dev manually from the 7.x repo to see if they work in 12.x

There is a mosquitto extension present in the 3 most recent versions of piCore:

http://tinycorelinux.net/12.x/armv6/tcz/mosquitto.tcz.info
http://tinycorelinux.net/13.x/armv6/tcz/mosquitto.tcz.info

ok I just realized that the issue seems to be that piCorePlayer uses its own repo :)

thanks a lot!
