@Rex, thanks for the work on this Image. I am using it on my uconsole (8 gb ram, 32 gb emmc). its been great out of the box all except for the backlight key bindings. With some reading in this thread, I got that straightened out. Its been a pleasure to use.

All this community work is amazing and all but is Clockwork not going to release a new official image themselves?

I wouldn’t expect it. Based on my experience with the Gameshell and the Devterm, they only released a few minor updates for Gameshell and nothing else. The community kept it going though, with new images. They seem to expect all their hardware to be maintained by the community, since it’s meant to be for hobbyists anyway. Thankfully, that’s been true for Gameshell, Devterm, and uConsole so far. They do make cool hardware, which I guess is why chances are good customers will come along and helpfully provide long term support.
In any case, it’s apprecited, @Rex !

At this point I view the distros that ClockworkPi provides as more of a proof of concept than a properly maintained and supported operating system, and that’s fine because I don’t think software is really their strength.

Quoting this comment about BT, is there any fix any of you found for making bluetooth work for headsets?
Thanks!
Does it pair? The Bluetooth is built-in to the cm4 so nothing I did should have an effect. If it does pair did you check the audio outputs?
cant upgrade the kernels to 6.6.31 through APT,
it gives me 443 or 404 error.
and anotherting I got better wifi signal after comment the ant2 line.
Are you using the stock antenna? if so is it touching the metal housing?
I just hit the APT repo and its working, maybe DNS or something. Are the other repos working?
assembled follow the Clockwork_uConsole_Assembly_Guidelines.pdf F1 F2.
shouldn’t the antenna touch the metal housing?
other repos work very well, I will change DNS and try again
It says to but it causes interference. search the forum most suggest put some thick double sided tape between the antenna and device.
Noob question here–if I download an image, do I just flash it to a micro SD using the RPi imager and then boot?
Flash with whatever software you want but before boot make sure your device is uncommented in the config.txt in the boot partition so your screen will work make sure the other one is commented out.

Ah, frig me. I guess that would explain why it just sat there. Thank you!
Yes… and no 
You can flash the image with rpi-imager, but you must edit, after, the config.txt file to comment the Devterm section and uncomment that of the uConsole.
Do not apply any preloaded settings when you flash the image with rpi-imager too, otherwise it don’t work.

I’m using the stock antenna, but I retried and, after a lot of time waiting, it did find the BT device.
I forgot that the antenna might have been a problem. Thanks!
Good glad you got it working.
FreeBSD would be killer!!
Thank you for your increadible contributions!

First of all, thank you for your contributions!
I’m a newbie on raspberry pi and could you let me know the difference between normal and lite img? Just size difference or do they have a difference in performance, like battery time or the limitaion of usable applications?
Thanks a lot!

In fact, it’s quite simple: the lite has no pre-installed programs or a graphical interface, while the normal one has a complete office suite, some other programs and a complete graphical interface (pi ui). The lite is really very light but less easy to configure while the other is much heavier, but almost ready to use.
Personally, I use a lite version with the KDE interface, which works perfectly on it. It is the heaviest office environment that exists, but it is completely customizable. (Once rid of all visual effects, it is even more fluid).

Thank you for your detailed explanation.
Then, lite version has only a letterbox like cmd and if I want to use graphical interface like KDE you mentioned, I have to install separately, right? I want a lightest DE!
I’ll try to look for more things you mentioned. Thank you very much!
