    Hello Guys,
    I have some trouble...
    I created a script with "select case" Statement to select startoptions like:
    a: kodi
    b: pyDarts => multi-user.target
    c: Desktop => graphical.target
    The reason for this is that I think pyDarts will work smarter without Desktop Enviroment on my old hardware.
    If I start the Desktop (xfce with graphical.target or startx) and start pyDarts it is working like a charme. If I start with multi-user.target I'am only have a graphic with terrible ascii stuff in different colors. But it looks a little bit like pyDarts....sound works.
    Does anyone know the reason? Debug=1 don't show any errors.
    On two of my raspis with multi-user.target all works greate. Maybe I have to install some packets?

    Thanks in advance

    Mike

      Hi Mike,

      pyDarts rely on the pygame framework, which itself should probably rely
      on other python libraries.

      I suggest that you dig this way around, because unfortunately I think
      that you're the first trying this kind of build here.

      Let us know if we may help you !

      Cheers

    Hello poilou,

    thank you for answer!
    I've found the problem. First I've started with sudo and it works.
    After this I'dve tried out different groups. The trick was to put the user into the group video.
    After this I became an error for mice input. Put the user into group input remey this problem.
    Works like a charme! Thank you!

    Mike
