vtk-9.1.20220518.dev0-cp310-cp310-linux_aarch64.whl So tonight I'll be onto installing qtpyvcp

To install qtvcp you need these commands:


and than
select 3 = Yes, for a package installation

elovalvo's method to install qtvcp did not work for me, At least the install script ran perfectly instead of erroring. I was getting segmentation faults with qtplasmac, and other sample screens did not load.

but adding
to cmdline.txt made a substantial improvement on latency

 
10 glx gears vs 6 previously. I'll let it run overnight again.
I just have to try  qtpyvcp but that will be another night.

I did grab a 64 bit SD card today so its time to try rebuilding the image tomorrow.
We had incessant internet outages today so could not get any work done, let alone playing with this..

processor.max_cstate=1

Excellent, will add to the boot cmd too!

I now have LXQT v1.1 installed as default. Will commit that soon.

I have forked forked FalconView with a view to make it look inkeeping with an modern LXQT based ui.

Busy getting the robot working on EtherCAT....

Well, overnight the latency is a bit worse but the shape is much narrower

hmm, clicking on a png image (screenshot)  would not open it. 
fixed that

Just experiment with cstates before adding to your image. I just realised the horizontal scale was different between my overnight runs so it might be worse..
