Package Table

Package	Description
minecraft-pi-reborn-server	Minecraft Pi Edition Modded Into A Dedicated Server
minecraft-pi-reborn-virgl	Minecraft Pi Edition Using VirGL For Hardware Acceleration (Recommended For Desktop)
minecraft-pi-reborn-native	Minecraft: Pi Edition Using Docker Device Mounting For GPU Acceleration (Recommended For ARM Devices (ie. Raspberry Pi, PinePhone, etc))

Troubleshooting

Game logs are located in /tmp/minecraft-pi.

Couldn't connect to Docker daemon at http+docker://localhost - is it running?

Start Docker if it isn't running:

sudo service docker start

Error response from daemon: error gathering device information while adding custom device "/dev/dri": no such file or directory

Make sure you are using the correct GPU drivers for your system.

If you are using a Raspberry Pi, make sure your GPU driver is set to Full KMS or Fake KMS in raspi-config.

Segmentation Fault (Exit Code: 139)

Report an issue with reproduction instructions and system details.

[ERR]: Invalid ~/.minecraft-pi Permissions

Update ~/.minecraft-pi permissions:

sudo chown -R "$(id -u):$(id -g)" ~/.minecraft-pi
chmod -R u+rw ~/.minecraft-pi

Dedicated Server

The dedicated server is a version of Minecraft: Pi Edition modified to run in a headless environment. It loads settings from a server.properties file.

To use, install the minecraft-pi-reborn-server package and run minecraft-pi-reborn-server. It will generate the world and server.properties in the current directory.

This server is also compatible with MCPE Alpha v0.6.1.

Limitations

• Player data is not saved because of limitations with MCPE LAN worlds
  • An easy workaround is to place your inventory in a chest before logging off
• Survival Mode servers are only compatible with minecraft-pi-reborn clients
