Any help or directions to a manual on how to accomplish this will be greatly appreciated.

I have downloaded this program which allows me to access my cellphone camera. On the INSTALL file, it requires that I have the following:


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To compile you need:

QT library 3.3.3 (C++ headers and binary lib)
libusb-devel 0.8 (headers and binary lib)
g++

Installing
----------
1. qmake
make

2. Now you can run the program.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


I have 10.0 installed with all of the default updates. I did a search for QT and found a directory under KD3 labeled qt with 181 .sip files in it, though I cannot find any indication that it is version 3.3.3. I did searches for libusb-devel and g++ and came up with nothing.

My guess is that I have to download these libraries from somewhere, probably opensuse.com?, run qmake, run make, and then run the program? However, there is a catch.

I have these files and directories that are listed in the "root" of the program directory.

directories
tar:/home/justin/moto4lin-0.3.tar.bz2/moto4lin-0.3/CVS
tar:/home/justin/moto4lin-0.3.tar.bz2/moto4lin-0.3/moto_ui

tar:/home/justin/moto4lin-0.3.tar.bz2/moto4lin-0.3/README



I tried running moto4lin with everything as is, and got this error message:


An error occurred while loading tar:/home/justin/moto4lin-0.3.tar.bz2/moto4lin-0.3/moto4lin:
The file or folder tar:/home/justin/moto4lin-0.3.tar.bz2/moto4lin-0.3/moto_ui/moto4lin does not exist.


This probably has something to do with the fact that moto4lin in the "root" directory contains 0 bytes, but is actually a link to a file in another directory, a file that is simply not there. Go figure.


The moto_ui directory contains the following files:

tar:/home/justin/moto4lin-0.3.tar.bz2/moto4lin-0.3/moto_ui/CVS

Lastly, does Linux allow text files to be used as program files? The other two text files labeled "moto4lin" display the following:

moto4lin.pro

# File generated by kdevelop's qmake manager.
# -------------------------------------------
# Subdir relative project main directory: .
# Target is a subdirs project

SUBDIRS += moto_ui
TEMPLATE = subdirs
CONFIG += release \

use your package manager to search for the packages required and update if necessary. i dont know where it is in suse, probably in the KDE > System or Administration menu if it exists. I think its called YaST.

is there also an INSTALL file? that should tell you exactly what commands to run to install it... there usually is both INSTALL and README files. check it out.

Yes, what I displayed at the very first was actually the INSTALL file.

oh sorry missed that. did you look in the package manager?

Actually, when I went back and looked at the properties on the different files, it did not specifically say that they were text files. It says file type UNKNOWN, which leads me to believe that is the result of the libraries missing.

OK, I got into Yast, and it says that I have the first two libraries installed, but I can't seem to find any libraries named g++. I have C++ in the list, not actually installed, but I'm not finding g++ anywhere as a selection.

its probably listed under gcc

OK, I installed the entire C++ library, so I should have all of the right files installed on my system, as the other two were later versions than what was listed. However, when I try to run qmake, it doesn't know that command. When I try to run make, I believe that it is requiring extra parameters or variables.

linux:/home/justin # qmake
bash: qmake: command not found
linux:/home/justin # make
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.
linux:/home/justin #

youll have to move into the directory where you unzipped the files.
is that the only instructions? 'qmake' and 'make'?

Try this instead and install any dependencies
http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat....i586.rpm.html

Moto4lin works but in suse had alot of problems with normal user and certain permissions so run moto4lin as root to help with any permission problems you may have.
