Shaketune Klippain Belt Magic

You want to use the fantastic Shaketune Repo for your Qidi?

====

Note: latest version of Klippain requires an updated version of Klipper. Therefore it is not possible to achieve the installation of Klippain following the guide below.

Older version of Klippain 2.5.0 is also not working because of missing dependency on matplotlib==3.8.2 that cannot be installed on latest Qidi firmware (Jan 2024).

You can try to use the old version of Klippain 1.2.0

=====

No Prob. Go here and install everything:

https://github.com/Frix-x/klippain-shaketune/blob/main/install.sh

Preparation

Qidi uses old v10 Klipper in the stock configuration. This means you have problems and manually need to change pathways.

Before you do anything set the system time correct via SSH!

SSH:

ssh mks@IP
password: makerbase

NTP install and useful alternatives to check out:

apt install ntp
and then
dpkg-reconfigure tzdata to select timezone

sudo date -s '2023-12-02 10:22:00'
sudo ntpdate -s ntp.ubuntu.com
(doesn't work)

if chrony doesn't autostart you can add a crontab line from root account
@reboot /usr/sbin/chronyd

Wrong system time & date
SSH to the IP address of KLP1.

Run command sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata and select your timezone.

Time zone should now be set correctly, now you need to enable time syncing.

Run sudo apt-get install chrony -y.

This will uninstall ntp and install chrony, a service used to sync time.s

Run timedatectl to check if the time and date are now properly synced.

Change pathways

Qidi uses other paths for Klipper binaries and config in stock v10 Klipper.

You simply need to adjust those paths used by all python scripts.

Klipper config -> /home/mks/klipper_config/
Klipper binaries -> /home/mks/klipper/
