How to program SpokePoV under Linux

[machtelt]

Hello,

I was hoping to find a comprehensive README or something for getting the SpokePoV customized using my Linux box. I read the post about the port to Linux, but first of all this seems to be using rather old software versions, and second, when I try to download the patch files from jacob.hoffman-andrews.com it says "No route to host" (while the host can still be resolved).

So, this being the year 2011, how do I start?

Thanks for reading this,

Machtelt.

we're actively working right now to update the software to have it work for lion, linux, etc. please hold on, we'll post here when its done!

If there is anything I can do to motivate you, like sending some Belgian beer or so...

If you try to compile the code we have up, you can drink the beer yourself

Is there a Makefile started for a Linux build? If I wanted to try it out, should I start with the contents of the macosx Makefile?

[adafruit]

yes, macos is the closest makefile.
