Requirements
- curl (see installing curl)
- preferably be on version 3.22 (see software version)
Setup variables
For rM1/2:
xovi_arch=arm32-testing
For Paper Pro/Move:
xovi_arch=aarch64
Install xovi
Download the xovi install script:
./curl -Lo extensions.zip https://github.com/asivery/rm-xovi-extensions/releases/download/v14-20092025/extensions-$xovi_arch.zip
Extract:
unzip -od extensions extensions.zip && rm extensions.zip
Run the install script:
bash extensions/install-xovi-for-rm
Start xovi
see starting xovi
Install qt-resource-rebuilder (for UI modifications)
Note: you must have downloaded and extracted extensions.zip (see the first 2 steps of the "installing xovi" section)
cp extensions/qt-resource-rebuilder.so /home/root/xovi/extensions.d/qt-resource-rebuilder.so
Rebuild the hashtable
Notes:
- this has to be done again on every qt-resource-rebuilder update and every system update
- turn off system updates so your installed extensions will not break if the tablet decides to update (Settings > General > Software > Updates)
xovi/rebuild_hashtable
This should take about 2 minutes and your tablet will restart twice (make sure you enter the password when prompted) and do not stop the program until finished.
Next steps
With the current setup, you will have to run xovi/start
after every tablet reboot. Installing tripletap is recommended, as it allows you to start xovi by triple-tapping the power button.
Notes
- latest version of xovi is downloaded (currently 0.2.2)
- qt-resource-rebuilder version downloaded is 14-20092025
