Problems with Raspberry Pi 'Wheezy'

[Anton]

Hi,

 

I just downloaded and installed Wheezy for my Rasp Pi.

But i'm running into problems when i wan't to install the brickd.

I'm using this guide: http://www.tinkerforge.com/doc/Embedded/Raspberry_Pi.html

 

When I get to the 4th line of code the Raspb Pi stops with the error:

dpkg: error processing brickd_linux_latest_armhf.deb (--install):
package architecture (armhf) does not match system (armel)
Errors were encountered while processing:
brickd_linux_latest_armhf.deb

 

Anybody god an idea what's wrong. I'm not too familiar with Linux

So you are using stock debian? We currently don't have armel builds, our .deb is for armhf.

 

The difference is described here: http://www.memetic.org/raspbian-benchmarking-armel-vs-armhf/

 

You can either switch to Raspbian or you can build brickd yourself from source (https://github.com/Tinkerforge/brickd):

sudo apt-get install libusb-1.0-0-dev libudev-dev build-essential
cd src/brickd
make

Ahh i got the soft-float Debian version because of the support for Oracle JVM...

 

Thanks for the quick reply and the link, always good to learn what you're dealing with
