Hi All,
I'm trying to get ambilight with Hyperion working on my XBMCbuntu setup. I got WS2812b leds , an Arduino Uno, and it works ....well...sort of...
To test and try I have been able to get it all working on my laptop, Works great.
Now I want to use it on the real thing, and I have everything set, but I can't get the leds to work, because of the following message : "X11GRABBER ERROR: Unable to open display. DISPLAY environment variable not set"
xbmc@xbmc:~$ export DISPLAY=:0.0
xbmc@xbmc:~$ hyperion-x11
hyperion-x11:

X11GRABBER ERROR: Unable to open display. DISPLAY environment variable not set
I have tried to set the DISPLAY variable , and the hyperion-x11 then starts.........
xbmc@xbmc:~$ hyperion-x11
hyperion-x11:
version : V1.03.2 (brindosch-99d9396/d3713a8-1469452981

.......but I think The DISPLAY variable needs to be set at boottime, but for the love of god, I have no idea how to do that...
I have been google-ing for quite some time now, but I can't seem to find anything. Can someone please give me a nudge in the right direction?
