<p>Hi <font size="2" face="Arial">Glenn - you're missing qt - or
possibly Ubuntu graphics in general. <br>
</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Arial">You need qt to run chirp. <br>
</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Arial">After you boot to Ubuntu does it
start graphical user interface which which requires a login? <br>
</font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Arial">When you say "</font><font size="2"
face="Arial"><font size="2" face="Arial">Chirp is in

accessories on which machine?<br>

moz-do-not-send="true">https://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/chirp_daily/LATEST/</a></div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="FONT-SIZE: small">As of
this moment the current version is <a
class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="https://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/chirp_daily/LATEST/chirp-daily-20220515.flatpak"
moz-do-not-send="true">https://trac.chirp.danplanet.com/chirp_daily/LATEST/chirp-daily-20220515.flatpak</a><br>
<br>
Rest of the work is from the terminal.<br>
<br>
First, install Flatpak:<br>
<br>
$ sudo apt install flatpak<br>
<br>
The other howtos seem to have missed this next step. You
need to use<br>
flatpak to install the “freedesktop” platform. First
update flatpak<br>
and your paths.<br>
<br>
$ flatpak update -v<br>
<br>
This will give you a warning about paths, something like:<br>
<br>
Note that the directories<br>
<br>
'/var/lib/flatpak/exports/share'<br>
'/home/[username]/.local/share/flatpak/exports/share'<br>
<br>
are not in the search path set by the XDG_DATA_DIRS
environment<br>
variable, so applications installed by Flatpak may not
appear on your<br>
desktop until the session is restarted.<br>
<br>
Since we now have to log out anyway, now might be a good
time to make<br>
sure you are in the dialout group.<br>
<br>
Use the groups command to list your active groups. If the
group<br>
“dialout” does not appear, add yourself to the group
(replace<br>
[username] with your username):<br>
<br>
$ sudo usermod -aG dialout [username]<br>
<br>
Now restart your session (or computer) and return to the
terminal.<br>
<br>
~$ flatpak update -v<br>
Looking for updates…<br>
Nothing to do.<br>
<br>
Don’t worry about installation directory warnings if you
haven’t<br>
installed anything yet. Those will be created later.
Important is that<br>
we got rid of the path warning. Moving on….<br>
<br>
Now you need to get the Freedesktop repository installed:<br>
<br>
$ flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo"
moz-do-not-send="true">https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo</a><br>
<br>
and then install the Freedesktop Platform:<br>
<br>
$ flatpak install flathub org.freedesktop.Platform//19.08<br>
<br>
This might take a while its a big (~0.5Gb) download. Grab
some coffee<br>
and make some QSO’s….. Maybe check out my club’s website:<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://w6ek.org"
moz-do-not-send="true">http://w6ek.org</a><br>
<br>
Finally we can install Chirp! (replace .flatpack filename
with your<br>
downloaded version)<br>
<br>
$ flatpak install Downloads/chirp-daily-20220515.flatpak<br>
<br>
You’re done! You can run chirp from your applications menu
or from the<br>
command like like this:<br>
<br>
$ flatpak run com.danplanet.chirp<br>

<div class="gmail_default" style="FONT-SIZE: small"><br>
</div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="FONT-SIZE: small">My
distro has a defective GIMP application so I used flatpak
to install the app from there, the only negative is that I
cannot type "gmp" from a terminal and have gimp run, I
have to use teh menu entry.</div>
