If you need firmware or system software Doc or write up on or my primitive QC checks against any firmware tool loader, bench tester, or dash ideas you may ponder feel free to bounce them at me if you want a second or fifteenth look at something.

I think of it more as compulsive than attention deficit. You took my balloons. I guess I didn't post the balloons then. Nevermind. I had some ascii art balloons that github messed up so I posed in a code block, or so I though. Later found my balloons in preview on another tab on another computer.

I'm trying out

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install qt-sdk
to see if it alleviates some dependency isses.

Fresh 12.04 desktop ubuntu

eMStudio
Fred want's camel

sudo apt-get install build-essential libqt4-dev libqt4-opengl-dev libqt4-opengl-dev qt4-qmake libqwt-dev libqt4-declarative libqjson-dev

successful make. I didn't know the right dependecies so I ran:

Code: Select all

apt-cache search glut
sudo apt-get install libglui-dev libmgl-glut5 libmgl-dev
Later ran with a fresh vm with this:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install libglui-dev
user complaint I don't have a search for com port. I have many com ports on this computer and it detected the wrong one. Baud rate should be drop down. camel case is no place on labels, this is user interface. BE SPEIFIC. send delay(ms) is fine. Don't bother with help if you only have an about.

Seemed to have a bug where having a file open and then trying to open it again returned an error that could be handled with just returning.

I finished setting up the mac with this:
  • * oracle VirtualBox107 MB
    * VM from SourceForge 603MB
    * extract the package

    Code: Select all

    brew install p7zip
    7za x ubuntu-12.10-desktop-i386.7z
    mv ubuntu-12.10-desktop-i386 ~/ubuntu
    cd ~/ubuntu
    * set up these programs, add machine and start. Login as ubuntu/reverse. Configure Keyboard layout
    * instructions on github
    * Appended to the notes:

    Code: Select all

    sudo apt-get install libglui-dev git
    make install

Thanks for testing :-)

I think it's in the tracker? It's on the TODO though. A bit too much work for the gain right now.
Baud rate should be drop down.
Editable drop down, OK. But on non-linux platforms, it's more flexible than fixed numbers.
camel case is no place on labels, this is user interface. BE SPEIFIC. send delay(ms) is fine.
Good spotting, but "Inter-byte delay (ms)" is what it should say, "send delay" means very little to me.
Don't bother with help if you only have an about.
Menu is obviously a place holder for more. He could/should bang a URL opener in there for his forum section, though :-)
Seemed to have a bug where having a file open and then trying to open it again returned an error that could be handled with just returning.
GOOD FIND! More detail, please! BE SPECIFIC. :-)

Fred.
