Forgive me, but I'm a bit frustrated. I've spent about 5 hours trying to update, which I thought would be simple. Instead of updating, I decided to start fresh on a separate SD card mainly because I forgot the PW to ssh on that SD card.
Here is a list of issues that I've ran into:
1. SSH from the installation instructions does not work. user: pi, pw: raspberry just doesn't work out of the box. (I believe this was caused by Raspberry Pi Imager?)
2. WLAN from the installation instructions does not work. The code to copy/paste was out of date. I've flashed 3 or 4 different SD cards at this time, this blurb in the docs is wrong, however the blurb right above it is correct. I also used the imager to set it up on one of the flashes and that seemed to work as well. Long story short: The docs are misleading and need to be updated.
3. I exported my LED settings from 2.0.0-alpha.9 and imported them into 2.0.13. That configuration did not work. No LED's are lit up or controlled. Logs claim that I'm running as user `pi`. Users on the forum say I need to run as root in order to control this. Maybe I'm blind, but I couldn't find directions anywhere to run hyperion as root. I find it odd that it doesn't even run this as root out of the box with a hyperbian installation. I found a lengthy argument on github with the maintainers and users with no solution to this problem, in that thread seems to be a comment that makes a SINGLE led work https://github.com/hyperion-pr…38#issuecomment-929566698.
4. I can't get more than a single LED working. No errors in the logs, configuration is correctly set at 232 LEDs. The graphics show that it's attempting to run all LEDs, yet only 1 is powered. Keep in mind that I can go back to the alpha and everything works perfectly.
5. RGB byte order is missing for ws281x. Why? It's not auto sensing it, and it's incorrect on the single LED that I can get working.
I'm really not sure where to go from here.
Does anyone have exact steps to setting up a GPIO 18 on RPi PWM, ws281x from installation of hyperbian to use of the LEDs in hyperion in 2.0.13?
