No matching FB config found

[saladin]

I'm trying to use kivy, which is a Python module. But every time I go to compile, I get a message saying "No matching FB config found". I've been searching the forums, but nothing I've found seems to help.

[curaga]

FB config sounds like an X thing. Could be it's a GUI thing and requires Xorg and/or opengl?

[saladin]

I think it is a GUI thing, but installing Xorg and opengl doesn't fix it.

Hi saladin
You provide 1 error message, but without some information about what led up to it, it lacks context. Is your problem
similar to this:
https://www.reddit.com/r/kivy/comments/ioxm5y/no_matching_fb_config_found

Based on the info in that thread, maybe you need:

Code: [Select]

libEGL-dev.tcz
libEGL.tcz
and possibly some of these:

Code: [Select]

sdl2-dev.tcz
sdl2_image-dev.tcz
sdl2_image.tcz
sdl2.tcz
sdl2_ttf-dev.tcz
sdl2_ttf.tcz

[saladin]

Sorry, that's me in the reddit thread. Even with all of that, I still can't get it working. I'm still getting the same error message. Is there anything else I can try, or anywhere else I can ask?

[Sashank999]

You need these :
compiletc
git
python3.6-dev
cython3.6-dev
ffmpeg4-dev
libsdl2-dev
libsdl2_image-dev
libsdl2_mixer-dev
libsdl2_ttf-dev
zlib1g-dev

libportmidi is not there in repo. You need to make it. -dev files of libavformat... are in ffmpeg4-dev (Why ?).

[Juanito]

..because ffmpeg is the name of the source code that supplies libav*

[saladin]

cython3.6-dev
libsdl2-dev
libsdl2_image-dev
libsdl2_mixer-dev
libsdl2_ttf-dev
zlib1g-dev

These don't seem to exist for 64-bit. Is it easier just to use 32-bit for this project?

[Sashank999]

There is no cython3.6-dev. Just download cython3.6.
sdl2-dev.tcz
sdl2_image-dev.tcz
sdl2_mixer-dev.tcz
sdl2_ttf-dev.tcz
zlib1g-dev is zlib_base-dev.

They are in 64-bit repo. With different names. I checked in the website.

But Juanito, other distros have it separated. I (just) suggest adding a false package or seperating them.

Hi saladin
Is this for x86_64 or Raspberry Pi?

[saladin]

x86_64, though I could change to 32 if it's easier.

[saladin]

Tried what Sashank999 recommended. It worked! I no longer get the "No matching FB config found" error. Now I get a completely different error:

[Juanito]

Have you downloaded the RPi version of kivy by mistake?

[Rich]

Hi saladin

Code: [Select]

[DEBUG  ] Window: Ignored <egl_rpi> (import error)
[INFO   ] Window: Provider: sdl2(['window_egl_rpi'] ignored)

What Juanito said.

[saladin]

I don't know how to do that. Or how to not do that.

I've been using

Code: [Select]

sudo pip3.6 install kivy.
