Hey HAMs
I just won a SuSE Linux Enterprise Desktop (SLED) laptop at a local SuSE
Forum. I own a Kenwood D700 with a serial input that will do APRS.
My question is there a APRS type of program for linux?
I just check and there is no compiler so it may go to 10.1.

Perhaps I'm asking this in the wrong forum. It IS ham related but might
be better in some programming forum
Has anyone installed KPSK?
I downloaded the tar ball. extracted it and ran configure without a
hitch. The problem started with make. [ I'm a "newbie" when it comes to
Linux so I'm still kind of on the lower upswing of the learning curve. ]
This is the output on the terminal screen:
****************************************

***********************************************
I don't understand the problem [ I guess is the closest I can come to
saying it] but wonder if the line "psk31-fft.C:113: error: extra ‘;’" is
the source of my ills. At least that is where things seem to be exiting
make.

Well..................................................... I tried the
KPSK but as far as I can see it has some problems that go a ways back
with no support showing from the developers. SO, I decided to blow it
off. Did find a TWPSK for Linux and installed it. I have to run it from
CLI, but I can live with that if I have to. When I try to start it I get
this:
*****************************************************************
Compiled with @(#)Motif Version 2.2.3
Running with @(#)Motif Version 2.2.3
Using full duplex mode!
Cannot open PTT device /dev/ttyS1: Permission denied
Can't open code table file 'psk31.cod'
****************************************************************
I'm thinking the error message is because there is no radio hooked up to
the computer.
I do have my backup computer dual booted with Win98 [ the last version
you could make a functional start up disk from ] so I downloaded and
installed digipan. I think someone mentioned they had a schematic for a
simple interface unit. Would it be possible for them to send it to me.
If I can get things working, what the heck give it a shot.

Hi Billie,
The first error is no big deal. The serial port, ttyS1, is used to key
the PTT on your rig. It says you don't have permission to access the
serial port. You can ignore the error and use VOX.
If you want to use PTT, then as root you need to run a chmod command:
chmod 666 /dev/ttyS1
The second error is a show stopper, since twpsk can't find the code
file. This file should have been installed into the correct place
during the install process. Did you run "make install" as root, or was
did you use a RPM?
