Kvantum is a useful theme manager to style the themes of any Qt Apps without touching their code. When running a PyQt5 application from source using my OS' python installation, the kvantum theme is applied correctly. However, when using a python virtual environment, it isn't, producing the following error:
QApplication: invalid style override 'kvantum' passed, ignoring it.
Here's a script that creates and runs a virtual machine running Raspberry Pi OS Desktop or Lite with a GUI.
It is based on cGandom's guide on setting up a Raspberry Pi OS Lite VM without a GUI.
Quoting that guide:
"This isn't full-blown hardware emulation of the Raspberry Pi 4, but more about creating a virtual environment for the OS."
The main improvements made by this script over that guide are:
Since the sunset of the Atom text editor, getting some of its plugins to work in its successor Pulsar has been a bit tricky.
For me the Hydrogen plugin was the most critical issue. After collection partial solutions from many forums, I compiled a script for manually installing it that has worked reliably for me for several months now, on both x86 and arm architectures.
Sorry for the delay in publishing, I hope this helps other Pulsar users.
Tested with Pulsar v1.109.0 on:
When upgrading my Raspberry Pi 5 from Ubuntu 23 to Ubuntu 24, I had an issue that the blender application stopped working. I figured out that the cause was that Ubuntu 24 came with blender version 4.0.2, which didn't work on a raspberry pi, while blender version 3.6.2, which came with Ubuntu 23, did work. So I worked out how to install blender version 3.6 on Ubuntu 24 by downloading the specific DEB packages intended for Ubuntu 23 and installing them using dpkg after installing the dependencies manually.
