You are right that you need min Kivy 1.8.0 that supports ‘Behaviours’.
Now, how to get that on the Chromebook… searching
The only options I saw searching is enable Developer mode and either:
- install dual-boot to an Ubuntu image that will run on your hardware
- or install Crouton and run an Ubuntu environment
But I am by no means an expert and don’t have a chromebook
I am in Developer mode, I have installed Crouton and I am running an Ubuntu environment. For some reason it insists on installing 1.7.2
Oh wow, so it seems that the ubuntu environment is kind of outdated, if it doesn’t install a newer version.
From the github page there seems to be an option to choose different distros.
Not sure if that will work, but perhaps worth a try.
How did you convince your chromebook to install a kivy version other than 1.7.2? I made it through everything else, but for some reason the stable build it chooses is 1.7.2 which does not support behaviors (I need at least 1.8). I have tried the daily which errors out. Without a more up to date version of kivy I can’t seem to run Ground Control
I have GroundGrontrol running successfully on an x86_64 laptop with crouton. I think the difference is that you have an ARM CPU in your Samsung 303c?
You may be able to pull in a newer version of kivy with python-pip or compile from source.
Did you get this to work? I’m having a similar problem. I’m running Ubuntu Trusty on an old Toshiba laptop. Thinking I may need to upgrade Ubuntu.
