raspberry pi 2

[raygun]

Despite what it says, I think that "fatal" message you are getting during the make isn't hurting anything.  From this it looks like it is coming from git, and git isn't doing anything important in the makefile:

You don't need to compile attract mode from X, you just need to be in X when you run it.

That's normal and nothing to be worried about.
