SteamLinkk issues

[Tusk]

Hello mates

I have some issues with steamlink I have installed, but when I try to launch it I get an error.

wrong ownership on runtime directory /run/user/0, 0 instead of 1000.

What did you do?

thanks

Hi,

many thanks for your message. pls can you post

Code: Select all

ls -la /run/user/

Hello

Code: Select all

drwxr-xr-x  4 root   root    80 Jul 29 15:19 .
drwxr-xr-x 26 root   root   800 Aug  2 16:03 ..
drwx------  5 root   root   100 Jul 29 13:56 0
drwx------  5 dietpi dietpi 100 Aug  1 18:34 1000

But I think the error it's caused for other reason. I mean if I launch steamlink trough xmobaterm in my pc, a virtual windows is launched and works fine...

But the problem is if I launched in the local console. I also set up kodi to launch at the start. And the user logged is root, so when I backup to console I log on to dietpi user.

Thanks!

what happen if you login as user root on console?

Hello

I think the problem is how start diepi when I turn on it.

I've set it up so that Kodi will start when I turn on the raspberry pi, I read you need to login as root if not It wont work.

Then I exit from Kodi and I do "su - dietpi", after Kodi is launched, and I exit from Kodi too.

Then I run steamlink command. And other error appears

Code: Select all

/dev/tty1 permission denied
$ steamlink
XDG_runtime_dir not set defaulting /home/dietpi/.local/share/Steamlinl/.tmp/runtime-dietpi

Other times the error is I said in last posts... I think the error in the way the autostart is logged in.

I guess you would need to run it as root and not as user dietpi

[Tusk]

The problem is steamlink evoid to run as root. I can bypass it but its not recommend. Thats mean all apps that I want run from local console Its necessary to launch from root user. Is it right?

[Joulinar]

might be.

you could try to add user dietpi to video as well as tty group

Code: Select all

usermod -aG tty dietpi
usermod -aG video dietpi

might be this will work around the permission issues

Hello

I try both things and I get the same error... I bypassed the bash steamlink to check if I run steamlink as root but as I sad I get the same error...

XDG_runtime_dir not set defaulting /home/root/.local/share/Steamlinl/.tmp/runtime-root.

But If I run steamlink in my personal computer trought mobaxterm the command run well!

Code: Select all

I dont understand nothing... Has anyone been able to install steamlink?

Thanks

do you have a screen attached? Because steam link is stared on that external screen and not within the console / command line.

If I start steam link within a SSH session, I see the same error massages

Code: Select all

However on my attached monitor, steam link is started

To get rid of permission issues, I added user dietpi to following groups

Code: Select all

usermod -aG tty dietpi
usermod -aG input dietpi
usermod -aG video dietpi
usermod -aG audio dietpi
