Hello, Since the begining of this year, I am writing a new KDE2 application for using and configurating the PTC-II ( www.scs-ptc.com ). The development is not completed yet, but I think it is already a useable software. I would be pleased, if someone take a look and drop me a note about his first impression. Criticism and hints are important for further development. The current version is Kptc - 0.1. There is no RPM yet, but installing from source should not cause any trouble. Download it here: ftp://ftp1.sourceforge.net/pub/sourceforge/kptc Install it as usual : # tar xfvz kptc-0.1 # cd kptc-0.1 # ./configure # make # make install Additionally, you need QT 2.2 or newer and the KDE2 libs. By the way: There is still a lot to do. To bring this work on faster, I can need somekind of help. If you are interested and like to support this project, please join me. Depending on your interests and skills you can introduce yourself in one of the following open tasks: - testing and reporting bugs / wishes - writing a user manual ( html ) - developing a project home page ( html ) - drawing icons and logos - translations - developing new features, several things are outstanding ( KDE, C++ ) Regards Lars DL3YFC -- ______________________________________________________________________ Lars Schnake [DL3YFC] lschnak@suse.de
