Raspberry Pi 5

Currently you can't install Redis from apt repository because it's compiled for the systems that have a different page size than Raspberry Pi OS has (16 kB).

You have to install Redis from sourse: https://redis.io/docs/latest/operate/oss_and_stack/install/install-redis/install-redis-from-source/

And configure it properly: https://redis.io/docs/latest/operate/oss_and_stack/install/install-redis/#install-redis-properly

Remember to change the configuration of the kiosk if you use above tutorial without a change of the service's name. You have to replace this line:

Requires=redis-server.service

With:

Requires=redis_6379.service

Raspberry Pi 4

If you encounter this error using Raspberry Pi 4:

rpi_touchscreen_attiny 10-0045: Unknown Atmel firmware revision: 0xe1

You can try to add to /boot/firmware/config.txt this line:

dtparam=i2c_vc_baudrate=50000

It will change the baud rate of the display screen.
