Notice: The method posted here worked great and was faster. Try this first: http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/projects/raspberrypi/tutorials/robot/downloads/
If that does not work then try this:
Ok, so this is the second time I had to stumble through this. Here the commands I used to finally get it to work. Total compile time was a few hours. The third and forth steps, contributed by Ty Rudder, are for an optional performance boost.
$ sudo apt-get install libblas-dev ## 1-2 minutes $ sudo apt-get install liblapack-dev ## 1-2 minutes [$ sudo apt-get install python-dev ## Optional] [$ sudo apt-get install libatlas-base-dev ## Optional speed up execution] $ sudo apt-get install gfortran ## 2-3 minutes $ sudo apt-get install python-setuptools ## ? $ sudo easy_install scipy ## 2-3 hours $ ## previous might also work: python-scipy without all dependencancies $ sudo apt-get install python-matplotlib ## 1 hour
… and the result is being able to do some nice processing on this blood pressure data. Below is 200 Hz pressure data, bandpass filtered between .5 and 5 Hz. You can clearly see the arterial pulses.
While I am jotting down hints, here is how to forward your X11 windows as root though ssh.
- From remote $ ssh -X pi@192.168.1.3 # change to pi’s IP address
- On Raspberry Pi $ sudo cp /home/pi/.Xauthority /root
- Now run your graphical program. Window should display on remote computer.
Install Node (install webide or from source…):
- Download tarball from nodejs.org
- ./configure
- make
- make install
Install simplejson (easy_install simplejson)
Install PIL (sudo apt-get install python-imaging)
Install PySerial (sudo apt-get install python-serial)
when installing power switch without RTC– both scripts rely on /etc/rc.local if hwclock is not found, then script exits and does not run switch.sh. FIX: run switch.sh before hwclock
FIX SD CARD: use Ubuntu boot disk creator to format disk, then dd newest distro
