It is really awesome that rm2fb has support for 3.3.x and even 3.5.x, but for some reason when I try to install th rm2fb.ipk the opkg (I used Evidlo's Entware) outputs:

`

  • pkg_hash_check_unresolved: cannot find dependency xochitl for rm2fb
  • satisfy_dependency_for: Cannot satisify the following dependencies for rm2fb
    :
  • xochitl
  • opkg_install_cmd: Cannot install package rm2fb.
    `

I can enable xochitl by systemctl enable xochitl.
I can run xochitl by xochitl.

I have tried to opkg install /rm2fb on 2.15, 3.3, 3.5, and 3.8 using fake updates with no avail. I am not sure what to do.

rm2fb depends on the xochitl package from https://github.com/toltec-dev/toltec/tree/stable/package/xochitl
If you're not using toltec that dependency won't be found.

I see! I suppose this package can be installed without toltec? I am just really trying to wrap my mind around how you got things working with version 3.3.x and above.

EDIT:
I used jonaustin's method that modified opkg, but it actually just became toltec. The rm2fb wouldn't start (disabled for now). In the fear of bricking my device, I uninstalled toltec while still in the terminal.

Now I am really confused. Am I misunderstanding you that rm2fb can be installed on 3.3.2 and above or is there some obvious thing I missed?

You can install toltec just fine on 3.3.2, and then install the packages from the repo on top.
No need to use Evidlo's Entware

Ah, that makes much more sense now. Thanks!
