Help! Mixxx on raspberry pi with arch linux

Postby jdhatter » Sun Sep 15, 2013 9:05 pm

Hey everyone

So I am trying to get Mixxx working on the raspberry pi with arch linux.
I though this might be possible as mixxx does work on arch linux and people have got mixxx working on the raspberry pi but on the OS debian.

I have got the linux source code from github and i've installed all the dependencies listed on the mixxx website.
Problem is when I try to compile I get an exception message.

Exception: invalid machine type:
File "/root/mixxx/mixxx/SConstruct", line 67:
toolchain, available_features)
File "/root/mixxx/mixxx/build/mixxx.py", line 51:
raise Exception("invalid machine type")

After a bit of research I think this exception happens when you are not using an architecture listed in there code
( https://github.com/mixxxdj/mixxx/blob/m ... d/mixxx.py ).
Bus as it works on the raspberry pi with debian I presumed the raspberry pi architecture was compatible.

Does anyone know what is causing this and how I can fix it?
Also has anyone managed to get mixxx working on the pi with arch linux?

Really appreciate it if anyone can help :)

Find out what is is thinking that value is. Try setting the value correctly since it doesn't appear to be detecting it.

Also, this might be outside the hardware capabilities of the Pi.
