In file /etc/inittab look for a line like that: 1:2345:respawn:/sbin/getty -noclear 38400 tty1Ĭomment it with a “#” in front and add the following line after it: 1:2345:respawn:/bin/login -f pi tty1 /dev/tty1 2>&1

This will start the x server without mouse cursor, which is a nice touch as we use it as touch display. In our pi image we have choosen “B2 Console Autologin” and have added to /home/pi/.bashrc the following at the end: if ! pgrep "xinit" > /dev/null

All what is needed to do is opening the browser in full screen kiosk mode with the server frontend url Now your pi will boot directly into x window system. Select “3 Boot Options” and then select “B4 Desktop Autologin”. Next you should configure your pi to automatically log in using raspi-configĬommand.

So in a first step you should update package registry and install the browser: apt-get updateĪpi install chromium-browser rpi-chromium-mods Firefox/iceweasel also worked but do not have a kiosk mode and always show urls in bottom left disturbing the display. The only one working to our satisfaction was chromium browser. The new front end uses up-to-date technology, so you need a recent browser. It will automatically adjust to the next smaller display resolution in case the resolution is not supported. Starting with version 0.80.0 we ship with a new printer front end that is optimized for touch control and that fits on most displays available. Important: This description is work in progress for the upcoming 0.80 release and will contain errors until this remark is removed! Installing a front end touchscreen for Raspberry Pi on Jessie
