Beginners • Re: Remote Operation Pi5

You could use sdm to fully configure the 32-bit Pi system, including the hotspot and VNC (TigerVNC or TightVNC) using X11 instead of Wayland/labwc.

Using a couple of NetworkManager connections, you could easily have the Pi put up its hotspot OR connect to a nearby WiFi network. Or both, if you have a 2nd WiFi adapter (NM doesn't easily support AP-STA mode on the Pi's WiFi).

Here's an outline of the steps required to configure your Pi with sdm:

• Install sdm on a Debian-based OS (RasPiOS, Ubuntu, WSL Debian, WSL Ubuntu, etc)
• Grab a fresh RasPiOS IMG from your library or download from downloads.raspberrypi.com
• Run the small script that customizes that IMG for you
• Burn the customized IMG to an SSD/SD Card
• Boot and go

If you're at all interested in pursuing an sdm-based solution to configure your Pi, LMK and I will build/test the basic sdm configuration for you to make sure that it works as you've specified. You can then take it and go from there.
