Vinyl: InkScape for Screenprinting and Vinyl (Silouette Cameo 4)

SETTINGS FOR ROUGH SVGs in Inkscape

Path > Trace Bitmap, then change just the setting for Smooth Corners. The other things I left default.

  • Single Scan
  • Brightness Cutoff,
  • 0.450 Brightness Threshold
  • 2 Speckles
  • 0.1 or 0 Smooth Corners
  • 0.20 Optimize

SILOUETTE CAMEO plotter-cutter on Linux (Debian)

(You need to install some drivers, and you need to modify (cut and paste) some files into their folders)

  1. In Terminal (https://github.com/fablabnbg/inkscape-silhouette)
  • sudo apt install inkscape
  • sudo apt install python3-usb
  1. https://github.com/fablabnbg/inkscape-silhouette/releases Scroll down to Downloads and click on the *.deb file. (You only need the one .deb file.)

Install that driver by clicking it in the folder and Install with Gdebi package manager (install gdebi),

Now, in Terminal do sudo inkscape to open it as root. With an SVG open in Inkscape, go to Extensions > Export > Send to Silouette, and try to do that, but you might get an error ...

So go to ______________(add page link), and download the .zip file, and from inside that zipped folder, take three things and put them in in the yourComputerName/config/inkscape/extensions folder. (You don't need the whole zipped folder, and you don't need to install anything. Just paste those files.)

Close inkscape and sudo inkscape again. At this point, it worked for me.

AnyDesk on Raspberry Pi

AnyDesk doesn't work on Raspbian OS ootb.

(Should be able to do this before or after installing AnyDesk (which you get as a deb from their website and Raspbian installed it easily))

Some reddit guy:

"Since this post comes up quite high on google (and i'm 99% sure i'll need it again at some point:

  • "apt install libgles-dev libegl-dev
  • sudo ln -s /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libGLESv2.so /usr/lib/libbrcmGLESv2.so
  • sudo ln -s /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libEGL.so /usr/lib/libbrcmEGL.so

"Tested with stock RaspiOS bullseye and anydesk repository."

Tracktion Waveform

DAW works well on Linux. Customer support is responsive.

Unusable: Interface scroll/enlarge is very wonky and you get lost using it constantly.

Has audio issue where when restarted, it makes xruns style scratchy audio, which sometimes can be fixed.

I used less than an hour and couldn't handle the frustrating interface. Maybe they will change this and then it would be a good DAW.

Google Colabs

  • 12 hours (or less if inactive) and it disconnects from the server (where you get a free T4 system with 16gb VRAM).
  • Guy who used it said he used it quite a bit and he wasn't able to anymore without a paid account or something.
