Vivaldi Community for ARM(Raspberry Pi) is for like-minded people in a friendly environment where they can come together to learn and share their love for such devices. Here you can talk about your pet projects, experiences and digital making with Raspberry Pi as well as reporting issues you might encounter with it.
On top of that you might find the following links helpful:
While I originally envisioned getting a Pi to explore linux and networking. I've now ended up working on a sort of micro-controller project. I've been trying to create a temperature controlled space. If I can build a space that maintains a stable 150 degrees Fahrenheit for 3 months I can produce the coveted black garlic. Which is supposed to have a very unique flavor due to slowly undergoing the maillard which is a reaction between the proteins and sugars.
Interestingly black garlic lacks that characteristic garlic flavor because the enzyme alliinase doesn't get a chance to convert alliin into that characteristic compound allicin. But black garlic takes a long time and although people have used dehydrators, ovens, and instant pots to create black garlic they're all relatively inefficient. If you'd like to know more, or learn the same info from someone more charismatic, Bon Apetit did a great video on black garlic here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bF39Xet-3Nk
Anyways, thanks for creating Vivaldi; I look forward to seeing what other users are up.
NOTE: You might notice that nothing rendered in-between the fire emoji of my title. That's because the garlic emoji is a release candidate for Unicode 12.0 for 2019. But eventually it's going to look great!
Sorry to resurrect an ancient thread. I'm trying to use the script referenced in the original post (https://gist.github.com/ruario/19a28d98d29d34ec9b184c42e5f8bf29) to run Widevine on another armhf board (essentially a Radxa Rock2 Square, which runs a rk3288) and Vivaldi (now version 4.0.2312.33) sees the Widevine config but fails to load the .so. I tried the script unchanged and changed to pull the binary from a different ChromeOS image just to test. The below log is from the binary from the image the script uses by default.
Proprietary media is working per the test page.
When I try to run Widevine content, I get this in the Vivaldi log:
[10926:10926:0701/150213.026209:ERROR:cdm_module.cc(139)] CDM at /opt/WidevineCdm/_platform_specific/linux_arm/libwidevinecdm.so could not be loaded.
[10926:10926:0701/150213.026450:ERROR:cdm_module.cc(140)] Error: /opt/WidevineCdm/_platform_specific/linux_arm/libwidevinecdm.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
However, the .so is definitely there and is readable by all users. This shouldn't matter because I'm running as root at the moment. I am running Vivaldi with --no-sandbox, if it matters.
root@foo:/opt# ls -l /opt/WidevineCdm/_platform_specific/linux_arm/libwidevinecdm.so
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 8887360 Jun 30 19:55 /opt/WidevineCdm/_platform_specific/linux_arm/libwidevinecdm.so
Am I missing something?
ETA: worth noting that I am on Debian 10.

Everything works. However watching Youtube videos in the browser causes the cpu temp to go sky high. Normally the cpu temp on my pi400 is between 35-50, watching a youtube video for just 10 minutes and it jumped to 70.
So yes opengl works with the proper flags but it also causes the PI to go nuts.
Neither Chromium nor Firefox cause the same issue.
Better off not messing with the flags.
@bpz Thanks a bunch! I'm running 64-bit Armbian on a Pinebook Pro. I couldn't figure out how to resolve the ELFCLASS error. Following your instructions though made the install as smooth as can be, no dependencies problems. I appreciate you saving my sanity.
For 64-bit, download and install the packages yourself, changing armhf to arm64 in the URL. 64-bit is not supported in the repo, but they packages exist. Here are some steps: Install 64-bit Vivaldi on 64-bit Pi
I found which is the command execution however I did not understand where to append the slice command:
SLICE
systemd-run --user --slice=vivaldi.slice
COMMAND:
exec -a "$0" "$HERE/vivaldi-bin" "$@"
Hi!
I did everything according to the instructions.
Doesn't work on 64-bit.
What else can do?
Vivaldi: 3.4.2066.106 (Stable channel) (64-bit)

@bpz Please collect as much information on your findings on this issue and file a bug report:

I doubt a lot of other users will be able to reproduce on this specific hardware 😉
