Hi,
I’m trying to install the speakerphat setup software using the one line command:
curl -sS https://get.pimoroni.com/speakerphat | bash
I just get two error messages:
curl: (3) malformed
curl: (6) could not resolve host: bash
For what it’s worth, my keyboard’s | symbol looks like a ~ when viewed in terminal…
Any help would be appreciated
actually the first error message is
curl: (3) malformed
Your using the wrong keyboard layout.
Full Raspbian or Lite? In the full Raspbian you just go to Preferences > Raspberry Pi Configuration via the menu and change your keyboard layout. Localization tab . keyboard layout. The default is English UK, I set mine to English US > English US with Eruo on the 5. That matches everything up for me.
If it’s Raspbian lite you need to run sudo raspi-config to do it. Menu’s are bit different but its the same idea. Finding the right keyboard layout is tricky though, its the old interface.
I had the same issue from terminal in Raspbian lite, I could not get the | symbol on my keyboard even after trying a few different layouts. I eventually gave up and went to full Raspbian.
If the bar character continues to elude you, you can also try:
sudo apt install pimoroni
pimoroni-dashboard speakerphat
I’ll have to remember that. Not being able to find the pipe symbol on my keyboard caught me out once. Jessie lite, terminal interface. I ran raspi-config and tried several different keyboard layouts with no luck.
In full Jessie, selecting English US as above and its where it should be, above the . Always nice to have options.
Thank you! I did the keyboard switch and the software loaded perfectly!!
Good stuff. Have fun. =)
