Raspberry Pi Kiosk Screen
There is no chromium package built for armhf any longer, I suggest adding a comment about it or removing the text.
Do these instructions work on the Raspberry Pi Zero W?
I have a Raspberry Pi that is configured into kiosk mode. I want to revert to booting to desktop.
I have cleared autostart file, but it boots to filesystem /home/pi in desktop.
When trying to install chronium on newer raspbian images, you'll get this error:
$ sudo apt-get install chromium
sudo: unable to resolve host raspberrypi
Reading package lists... Done

Package chromium is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source
However the following packages replace it:
chromium-inspector chromium-bsu
E: Package 'chromium' has no installation candidate
They added chronium as a new package to the raspberry pi repo, so use this instead:
sudo apt-get install chromium-browser
I've setup a pi-kiosk using iceweasel, and it works great ... except if the user closes the last tab on the browser there is no way to reload it/get it back -- you're just left with a black screen. You can restart the pi and get it back, but I'd rather have the user be able to do it.
Is there a way to link the browser restart to an F key? Or create a cron job that checks every minute to see if the browser is open, and if not restart it? There is the cron job to refresh to F5, but not restart from scratch.
Other than this, the setup has been perfect for me. Thanks in advance.
For Jessi, it's chromium-browser
, FYI :)
Great instructions!
Maybe you would like to take a look at https://github.com/chriso0710/pikiosk, which fully automates a Chromium kiosk based on Raspbian Jessie with Ansible.
