Command line only UI - NexusDude - 06-12-2016
From the OpenHab website, it appears that OH is supposed to boot into a GUI, but all I'm getting is a command prompt. White on black.

Welcome to Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (GNU/Linux 3.10.101-0-pine64-longsleep aarch64)
openhab@openhab: ~$
Do some sort of sensors need to be installed? The initial screen seems to suggest that, before it flashes past.
I'm just trying to get a feel for the capabilities of OpenHab, with a Pine A64 on Ethernet.

Haven't tried it yet, but I would assume it only has a browser front end ?
[edit] yea, take a look here
hope this helps

Do you mean it does not respond if you access it with your browser on port 8080?
Please note that you can find details about the content of the SD card here.

Oops.
I didn't understand this information, which now makes sense:Quote:This is a "headless" build, the setup process thru serial console, no HDMI vidoe output.
- Initial boot can take a few minutes before http://openhab:8080 becomes available.
I think I have this straight now. OpenHab runs on the Pine, which should have sensors connected, if using OpenHab is to make any sense. But OpenHab itself doesn't generate output that you can view via the HDMI connector on the Pine64. So, to access the data from those sensors, or to adjust any settings, or for whatever reason you need to see something relating to the Pine64's sensors, you open a browser and access OpenHab from elsewhere on the network. That is, from another computer.
Thanks for your kind replies.
