pyxel not running on Raspberry Pi

Describe the bug

So I’ve been trying to get pyxel to work on the Raspberry Pi with pretty bad luck so far. Initially it seemed like an issue with GLFW so I ended up doing the following:

1. Compile GLFW on the Raspberry Pi with the extensions
2. Enable OpenGL in Raspbian (Source)
3. Edit pyxel as suggested in #23 and installed the modified version of pyxel

Yup, its the same as #149 . I was looking to see if there’s a way to detect processor architecture last night for a grand total of 2 minutes, that way you can load the correct shared library. Also, I figured that you need to kill the desktop and run from the command line to get a decent framerate:

Now I need to figure an application launcher for this. But thanks for the help !

@rkrishnasanka Great news! Is it the same way of #149 ?
