fm scope run in linux
« on: November 26, 2024, 07:44:44 pm »
Does anyone tried to run software on linux? I tried to run it with wine, but with no luck. I made a lot of configurations with commands in terminal. The problem is how could i map with success usb0 with com1. Jan i think that it would be very usefull to release your software for linux.

I will answer by myshelf to this problem. First i must say that i'm running linux mint. So if someone wants to find out which com communicates with analyzer must do the tip bellow, taken from wine's site.

Serial and parallel ports are detected automatically when Wine starts. Windows serial ports follow a naming convention of the word COM followed by a number, such as COM1, COM2, etc. Similarly, parallel ports use LPT followed by a number, such as LPT1. Linux, Mac, and BSD each have their own device naming conventions, but in every case the serial or parallel device is located somewhere in /dev. You can see the mapping of Windows devices to Unix devices by looking in ~/.wine/dosdevices. For example:
$ ls -l ~/.wine/dosdevices/
total 0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 alex alex 10 May 13 21:21 c: -> ../drive_c
lrwxrwxrwx 1 alex alex 10 May 14 14:43 com1 -> /dev/ttyS0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 alex alex 10 May 14 14:43 com2 -> /dev/ttyS1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 alex alex 10 May 14 14:43 com3 -> /dev/ttyS2
lrwxrwxrwx 1 alex alex 10 May 14 14:43 com4 -> /dev/ttyS3
lrwxrwxrwx 1 alex alex 12 May 14 14:43 com5 -> /dev/ttyUSB0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 alex alex  8 May 13 21:22 d:: -> /dev/sr0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 alex alex  8 May 14 14:43 lpt1 -> /dev/lp0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 alex alex  1 May 13 21:21 z: -> /
Make sure you have the needed rights to access your computer's serial and parallel ports. On Linux, a user must typically be a member of the sys or dialout group to access serial ports, or the lp group to access parallel ports.


For me it was ttyusb35, so i configure fm scope to com35 and i was able to catch connection.
