First time poster here. I’ve just installed Processing on a Pinebook Pro (ARM64 processor; nice machine!) running Manjaro Preview 4. I’m getting a list of Java-related errors when I invoke Processing from the command line or GUI icon. For example: Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.awt.He…

Looks to me like mismatch in architectures. 32 bit arm on 64 bit aarch64.

not sure i can help, for me is not clear what processing you installed, ( why you not detailed that ( link / file name … ) but sure, if it is a processing like i know it from Raspberry Pi it comes with its own java, so… when you try from terminal $ java --version you get a possibly installed …

Thank you @kll for your detailed reply. I was clear in my first post that I was running processing under Manjaro Linux on a Pinebook Pro. It’s very similar a RPi installation. Java appears to be installed, that is, I can see a directory tree similar to yours: [mb668@PBP java]$ tree -d . ├── bin └─…

-1- [image] mb668: I was clear in my first post even now it is not clear WHAT / HOW you have installed processing. this? http://download.processing.org/processing-3.5.3-linux-armv6hf.tgz ( that contains JAVA ) -2- yes that looks like java ?aarch64? but could not see the path where it is …

[image] kll: even now it is not clear WHAT / HOW you have installed processing. this? http://download.processing.org/processing-3.5.3-linux-armv6hf.tgz Yes, that is exactly the version I have installed. It contains Java. n I extracted the .tgz file and then cd to the resulting processing-3…

did you google about if some one ever use processing on that hardware and that Manjaro Linux?

[image] kll: did you google about if some one ever use processing on that hardware and that Manjaro Linux? Yes, of course. I would not post to this forum without doing basic online research first. The hardware is new (released only a few weeks ago) and there is no prior experience of anyon…

I would be surprised given that you can find java version to install, yes there are zero vm might be available but performance will be slow (established jvms use assembly code).

Ah, right. That would explain a lot! It looks like the ARM version of Processing is 32-bit only. Am I SOL then?

Most probably, when I got my RaspberryPI4 I thought I would install a 64 bit ArchLinux distro, but it was a mistake, as only JVM available was the zero vm ones and performance was useless. Furthermore rest of distro was not optimized like RasbpberryPI buster, so even video driver was not too hot.

Thanks. That’s good to know (though kind of annoying too) :smiley: I’ve run Processing on a Pi 3B+ before and (wrongly) assumed that I could run it on a different ARM device without trouble. It might be a case of waiting for the software to catch up with the hardware. I’m a bit out of my depth in…

@mb668 @kll Recently I had some success with 64 bit manjaro on Experiments with 64 bit OS on RaspberryPI4
