Another plasma component...

Phil,

Just something you might add to your docs,

With the Materialverter, the output file is the plasmac_material.cfg,

It worked well with my Sheetcam toolset.

Another thing that might help newbies is this list of dependencies needed to install the run in place version, Ive installed it now on a few systems and making this list helped speed the process up a lot.

libudev-dev
libmodbus-dev
libusb-1.0-0-dev
libgtk2.0-dev
yapps2
Intltool
tcl-dev
tk-dev
bwidget
libtk-img
tclx
libreadline-gplv2-dev
python-tk
libboost-python-dev
freeglut3-dev
libxmu-dev
python-glade2
python-gnome2
python-gtkglext1
python-gtksourceview2

But compiling should no longer be necessary now its in master branch....

Or me who has never bothered to run anything other than RIP on master branch. I'm back to where I was where I started now

There was a time Chris Morley asked me to test pncconf and I never even used that until I did what he asked ....

I just updated my instructions thread and added Stefan's list of dependencies to the first post. Feww comments in red.

Will there ever be a official ISO release with the Mint OS? I have grown very fond of the mint version of linux.
