Chromium OS build for Raspberry Pi
Bug fixes in this release
- Fixed Linux apps with GUI does not display properly
- Fixed chrome://flags does not display properly
- Fixed "Linux files" under Files app does not display files and throws an error
- Fixed Enterprise enrollment error during OOBE:
- Caveat: Enterprise enrollment is most likely to fail on the very first boot of this image. If it does fail, power off your Pi and power on again, OOBE would resume at the login page, retry the Enterprise enrollment process and it should allow you to enrol
- Fixed annoying Bluetooth audio device stuttering issue 🎉
- Fixed tty console issue, now it's ok to press
ctrl+alt+F1/F2/F3to enter tty shell (Crosh shell also works if you prefer) - Fixed CPU temperature does not display properly in the Diagnostics tool
- Fixed issues with the OS semantic version number
Other notable items:
- Optimised hardware-accelerated VP8/VP9 video stream decoding, you should now have a smoother YouTube video (supports 1080p@30) playback with much lower CPU usage
- Made nano editor available for all shell users (happy days, vim haters 😑).
- Added
edit-pi-configshortcut for quicker access to config.txt in the EFI partition. To use it, entersudo edit-pi-configwithchronosaccount in shell and you will be presented with editable config.txt in nano.
Known issues
- Only supports Raspberry Pi 4B & Pi 400 - images for the Raspberry Pi 3 series are released separately.
- No support for OS sleep, or it'd result in a non-recoverable state. Therefore it's necessary to install Keep Awake extension and always set it to Sunny Mode.
- The CJK IMEs are basic browser extensions that come with vanilla Chromium OS, not the ones shipped with Chrome OS. It's advisable to use Google Input Tools extension.
- The initial boot time takes longer, this is expected.
- To enable Linux(beta) you'll need at least 2GB of RAM and 16GB of microSD capacity. It's only been tested on Raspberry Pi 4B with 4BG RAM.
- Hardware-accelerated graphics for Linux(beta) (virgl) isn't supported yet.
- Dropped "forced kiosk mode" support for compatibility reasons. If you happen to need kiosk mode for your project, try r89 release.
