Ubuntu 20.04 LTS 64 on a Raspberry Pi 4



Install Ubuntu Server on a Raspberry Pi 2, 3 or 4

https://ubuntu.com/download/raspberry-pi

Scan your LAN to find the IP then SSH

ssh -p 22 [email protected]
Password is ubuntu



Set Time zone:
dpkg-reconfigure tzdata

Configure your advanced network:
If using Netplan: https://netplan.io/examples

If using NetworkManager:

apt install network-manager

nmtui


If you get the error:
Connection is not available on device eth0 because device is strictly unmanaged

find related config files of interest:
grep -r eth0 /etc/

Comment out everything, or delete file:
vi /etc/netplan/50-cloud-init.yaml

vi /etc/netplan/01-netcfg.yaml
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# For more information, see netplan(5).
# Set and change netplan renderer to NetworkManager GUI tool
network:
  version: 2
  renderer: NetworkManager


reboot

STMicroelectronics Joystick in FS Mode



Son's flight controller not connecting to his simulator under Windows 10.  
This is how we tested the hardware under linux:

$ sudo apt install joystick

$ jstest /dev/input/by-id/usb-FrSky_FrSky_Taranis_Joystick_00000000001B-joystick

Joystick (FrSky FrSky Taranis Joystick) has 7 axes (X, Y, Z, Rx, Ry, Rz, Throttle)
and 24 buttons (BtnA, BtnB, BtnC, BtnX, BtnY, BtnZ, BtnTL, BtnTR, BtnTL2, BtnTR2, BtnSelect, BtnStart, BtnMode, BtnThumbL, BtnThumbR, ?, (null), (null), (null), (null), (null), (null), (null), (null)).
