RM Version 3.6 - libcrypto.so.1.1 not found

[rsoeldner]

I'm seeing the following error:

[INFO] Detected reMarkable 2.0
[INFO] Using backend 'vncserver'
[INFO] <class 'PyQt5.QtCore.QFile'> <class 'PyQt5.QtCore.QIODevice'>

Is RM Version 3.6 not supported?

Can you try again but setting "backend": "screenshare" in the config file?

This seems to be an issue reported in #146 : the new RM versions report a wrong version number🤦🏻 , so rmview thinks it's dealing with an old model without the new screenshare feature, and tries to use a custom VNC server which is incompatible with the new firmware

[rsoeldner]

Now its not progressing:

The GUI still says Connection to reMarkable...

Any thoughts?

[bordaigorl]

Yes the issue is that it's now skipping authentication for the same reason.
You need to bypass that decision one way or another to see if that's the only obstacle.
You can obtain that by either changing the version in /etc/version on the tablet or changing slightly the code of rmview.
Are you comfortable with connecting via ssh to the tablet (or messing with python)?

I have the same issue, I would be comfortable doing so. Any hints where to start ?

@pleich see the last few comments on #146
