$9 C.H.I.P.

I ran the manual install and once you’ve installed whatever it is to make it recognise npm it installed fine.

I then installed the declutter function to get rid of the curser and followed the auto start instructions and seemingly it all works well with a couple of issues:

i’m running through composite so it is very cluttered in terms of resolution
i can seem to stop CHIP from blanking out after 10 mins

i’m running the most recent GUI for CHIP, so yes it does work but it’ll need some playing around with to make it look nice.

The blanking out is the screen saver kicking in, I think. You should be able to disable that. I’d have to go back and load mine up to see what I did, but I do remember running it for a while without it blanking out on me.

I dug up the CHIP that was sitting and collecting dust to see if I can run MM on it. It was almost successful. I documented my installation and setup path here https://gist.github.com/morozgrafix/db069203ac4d8635a0f27e3dfa52f532

@morozgrafix sick! Can’t wait to try this out tonight. I’ve been trying to run MM on the chip for a bit now

@simongaviria1 there are still a few limitations that I haven’t solved. It was more of an experiment to see if it would run.

@morozgrafix Nonetheless, it’s still pretty exciting
