#. Now simply follow the `Raspberry Pi 1-4 installation`_ instructions to install Kivy.
#. If you are getting output similar to this when running your app::
[INFO ] GL: OpenGL vendor <b'VMware, Inc.'>
[INFO ] GL: OpenGL renderer <b'llvmpipe (LLVM 9.0.1, 128 bits)'>
Then it means that the renderer is **NOT** hardware accelerated. This can be fixed by adding your user to the render group::
sudo adduser "$USER" render
You will then see an output similar to this::
[INFO ] GL: OpenGL vendor <b'Broadcom'>
[INFO ] GL: OpenGL renderer <b'V3D 4.2'>
