Looking forward to it! Where would I find the steps for us non-devs to go from 'old OS on Prototype' to 'current OS with Supertux 2 running'? I understood that what we have so far is 'proof of concept' and isn't quite rolled into the main OS release - but close.
First you will need to start with a Buster installation (I think dist-upgrade should work, otherwise install one of the newer images). Then, to install the new kernel - instructions from
@aTc on IRC as I haven't tried this on my own unholy hybrid of Letux and PyraOS that I am currently developing with:
edit /etc/default/pyra-extlinux , add "drm.force_hw_rotation" to EXTLINUX_PARAMETERS , apt update, apt install linux-image-5.6.15-letux-lpae-tiler , poweroff, restart
Hopefully, this should start up with a correctly rotated screen.
For the TILER+3D, first download and extract
tiler_shim somewhere. apt install supertux or whatever you want to play (TORCS works too but is quite slow).
Then wherever you extracted tiler_shim; run `./init.sh` followed by `./run.sh /usr/games/supertux2` (if running from SSH or serial, make sure DISPLAY and XAUTHORITY are set)
I have only tried SuperTux on the uEVM, so I can't guarantee it will behave correctly on the Pyra hardware (resolution settings might need changing, etc).
Have fun
