Media Files==== Software & Fimware notes ==== . . .for the [[reprap]] (the older PPC notes can be found in [[debian ppc]] ===== RXTX ===== used the "Mac OSX/Source package" for RXTX version 2.1. there were numerous compile/configure errors involving a non-existent kernel define ''UTS_RELEASE''. as a quick workaround I commented out these sections of code (which were just checking that the running kernel matched the compiled source). ==== RepRap Host ==== initially i added the java3d jar files on the classpath with ''-classpath'', but later discovered that the ''-jar'' method of launching RepRap defeats this. ultimately i just copied all of the jar files to the correct places, eg: <code> sudo mv j3d-org-java3d-all.jar /usr/lib/j2sdk1.5-ibm/jre/lib/ext/ sudo cp -v j3d-core/build/linux-ppc/opt/lib/ext/j3dcore.jar /usr/lib/j2sdk1.5-ibm/jre/lib/ext sudo cp -v j3d-core/build/linux-ppc/opt/lib/ext/j3dutils.jar /usr/lib/j2sdk1.5-ibm/jre/lib/ext sudo cp -v vecmath/build/opt/lib/ext/vecmath.jar /usr/lib/j2sdk1.5-ibm/jre/lib/ext sudo cp -v j3d-core/build/linux-ppc/opt/native/ogl/objs/libj3dcore-ogl.so /usr/lib/j2sdk1.5-ibm/jre/bin/ </code> (the first one is the j3d.org jar file we need which contains the STLLoader and is linked from the [[http://reprap.org/bin/view/Main/RepRapLinuxSoftware#The_j3d_org_3D_utility_library|ReprapLinuxSoftware]] page) and finally, we were getting a lot of errors like: <code> STLObject(): Exception loading STL file from: file:/home/foam/code/reprap-host-0.8.1/reprap-wv.stl com.sun.j3d.loaders.IncorrectFormatException: sun.io.MalformedInputException </code> which was ultimately fixed by running in a non-UTF-8 locale, I did this by editing the ''reprap-host.sh'' script to: <code> #!/bin/bash LANG=${LANG%%.UTF-8} java -Xmx384m -jar Reprap.jar </code> the ''LANG='' part is just a smarty-pants way of stripping the ''.UTF-8'' part of your locale. this locale problem is described in ''/usr/lib/j2sdk1.5-ibm/docs/en/sdkandruntimeguide.lnx.en.htm'' ==== FIRMWARE ==== * using the k8048 PIC programmer * installed sdcc & gputils from debian.. (note sure about the advice at http://reprap.org/bin/view/Main/SDCC but both versions in debian were more recent than the linked debs) * built from svn (checkout 2008-05-17) in ~/reprap/trunk/reprap/firmware/PIC Please fill all the letters into the box to prove you're human.
