raspi2fb is not starting
80%
Description
raspi2fb is not always starting with PiCam.
There two known bugs in the init script called by PiCam:
${ECHO} "Starting logging: "should be
echo "Starting logging: "because "${ECHO} is not defined for raspi2fb (might be in /etc/init.d/functions but that isn't sourced by raspi2fb).
The other is that there is a space between #! and the shell path at the start of the script.
Even with those two fixes raspi2fb is not being started by picam, even though the logs say it is:
playerProcessor[player.c:230] INFO Starting raspi2fbd: /etc/init.d/raspi2fbd startNote that as long as raspi2fb starts the app runs fine. Also, there may be some issues with stopping raspi2fb. It appears to stop, but doesn't.
playerProcessor[player.c:246] INFO Stopping raspi2fbd: /etc/init.d/raspi2fbd stop

I'm wondering if this is just a permissions problem. Picam needs to be privileged to run raspi2fb, I think.

Bingo. Adding picam to priv config fixes the problem.

Picam opkg postinst already updates appmgr.priv. Not sure why it wasn't there before.
Need to reinstall picam and raspi2fb on pisentry and retest.
