I am trying to get Fruitbox to run on a Raspberry Pi 4.
I am following Jay Thomson's superb guide. He suggests that Bookworm runs better than Bullseye, so I opted for Bookworm.
Loaded Bookworm 64bit on a new SD card. Configured the X11 backend (plus network, SSH etc). Did the update && upgrades.
Installed OK, but when I run fruitbox I get the error "./fruitbox: error while loading shared libraries: libbcm_host.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"
Found one link where "fastfug" suggested trying "Try installing libbcm_host manually... sudo apt-get install libbcm_host "
But that didn't work!
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Bruce
PS Plan B might well be to try loading fruitbox on Bullseye, but I should probably persevere for a bit before trying that!
