Installing on a Raspberry Pi

[Chris Rampton]

I posted these instructions for installing on Raspbian Jessie a while ago on a pistonsheads TVR discussion of RG. Obviously use the latest version rather than the one given here:

Download the latest source files from the github https://github.com/colinbourassa/rovergauge/releas... and extract tar.gz file to an appropriate place on your pi. Also download the libcomm14cux source https://github.com/colinbourassa/libcomm14cux/rele... and extract to another folder.
I am not sure if you need all of this QT5 stuff but it is what I installed as I initially thought I was going to have to compile from within QT:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install cmake
sudo apt-get install qtcreator
sudo apt-get install qt5-qmake
sudo apt-get install qt5-default

Create a folder in each of the extracted folders (libcomm14cux-2.1.1 & rovergauge-0.8.4) called something like 'build'.
cd to each of your two empty build folders and run the following from there (you may need to do libcomm14cux first?):

cmake ..
make
sudo make install

If all has gone well you should now have a working rovergauge executable in your rovergauge build folder!

If you want to record log files you need to add a folder called logs to your working directory.

Jessie seems to already have all the drivers for the FTDI cable installed.

Good luck!

Hello

I'm struggling to get it to work, I can't seem to install the 2 programs, and I am so new that I'm not entirely sure what to do.
I've intstalled the Qt5 and Cmake
