[Tinyos-help] (tinyos 2.x) tossim and ubuntu!!!

[sam ribas]

Hi, i write this message only because, after days of stupid tries on
every linux distribution my mind could think about it, i realize how
make TOSSIM work correctly on Ubuntu (mmm, it is Mepis, but the .debs
are the same).

I hope this will be helpful for the (many) people with this problem:

1) download all the RPMS you can see on the instruction list of www.tinyos.net.
2) transform the RPM in DEB, using "alien" (apt-get install alien)

3) run tos-check-env (Graphviz it's not important, but if you have
problem with Java... check other previous messages and resolve the
problem).

4) INSTALL python-2.3 and PYTHON-2.3-dev !!!
In ubuntu and Mepis unluckly that package isn't installed by default
so... do it!!

Now go in apps/Blink (for example) and than:
# make micaz sim   (only micaz works)

*** Successfully built micaz TOSSIM library

IT WORKS (whoa)

See you!
