It didn’t work because in the next step of the installation it tries to verify the local folder is a git repository, and fails.

When editing this file:
sudo nano /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf

There are TWO versions of statement below something like “SeatDefaults”

xserver-command=X -s 0 -dpms

MAKE SURE YOU ARE BELOW THE SECOND mention of “SeatDefaults”

I spent hours banging my head on this one.

I’ve been trying to download OpenCV for the facial recognition module, and am running into

RPC failed; result=56, HTTP code = 200, fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly.00 GiB | MiB/s, fatal: early EOF, fatal: index-pack failed

This problem is well documented but none of the workarounds succeeded, which has me thinking since I can successfully download it via browser on my laptop, how can I get it to my Pi? Can’t I just copy to the Pi using a USB drive and go on with the install? Is there a specific command the Pi is using to extract a .zip file when we use “git clone”?

I would love to be able to track the Volvo Ocean Race, IndyCar and the NCAA Men’s Basketball Championship Tournament.
