So i made a fresh SD from Open Plotter 4 Headless, the latest beta.
The headless experience re VNC and network setup was brilliant! Impressive.
The only thing that did not work out of the box was "Apperances | Appearance Settings" - it will not start using the menu. This is minor.
I changed password and hostname, set headless resolution and enabled Serial Port and I2C interfaces.
I changed SSID and password and clicked the "Network" button in OP Settings. All good.
I used OP Serial to connect my GPS-mouse to GPSD. Looks like it's working fine.
Then i installed OP I2C using OP Settings and added my BMP280.
After this, the I2C service still cannot be started, this is from OP Check System:
So... how do i move on from here? Debugging tips, logs et. al. i'm not that well versed in linux/Raspberry/OP4?
Hardware wise polling I2C addresses works fine and PyPilot using the IMU works too (uses I2C but not the service as far as i understand).
An update was done at one point during the whole process, i could not detect any changes in behaviour though.
Thank you so much,
