(not installed) REQUIREMENTS ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ awk, bison, flex, bluez-libs, gtk+-2 dev libs, python 2.4 or greater, python dev for python module, uinput kernel support, kernel sources INSTALLATION ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ If installing from SVN or Git, run the following commands. Otherwise, or if you aren't sure, ignore them. aclocal autoconf All users should then run: ./configure make sudo make install To install global configuration files to the more familiar /etc rather than /usr/etc or /usr/local/etc, execute configure with --sysconfdir=/etc. While CWiid is still in the early development stages, installation directories and filenames are changed more often than in a mature, stable package. In order to prevent the collection of obselete directories and files, it is recommended that you run 'make uninstall && make uninstall_config' from your current CWiid source directory before installing a new one. Files are currently installed to the following directories: /usr/local/{bin,etc,lib,lib/cwiid,lib/python2.X/site-packages,share/doc,share/man}. Recently, but no longer, used directories include /usr/share/CWiid - this directory may be deleted. Many distributions do not have /usr/local/lib in the library search path, and on many of these same distributions, the library installation directory (as determined by autoconf) is /usr/local/lib, creating a problem when you try to run programs depending on libraries installed there. There are two clean ways to fix this: 1.Add a --prefix=/usr argument to ./configure 2.Add /usr/local/lib to /etc/ld.so.conf, then run ldconfig. I prefer the second method since it keeps local software in the local directory where it should be, and it fixes the problem for every package using /usr/local/lib, not just CWiid. Until someone offers a convincing argument for the omission of /usr/local/lib from /etc/ld.so.conf, I consider this to be a distribution bug, and method #2 above is the fix. Please report any compilation errors at http://cwiid.org. EXECUTION ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ wmgui [-h] [bdaddr] wminput [-h] [-c config] [bdaddr] The bluetooth device address (bdaddr) of the wiimote can be specified on the command-line, or through the WIIMOTE_BDADDR environment variable, in that order of precedence. If neither is given, the first wiimote found by hci_inquiry will be used. See wminput/README for more information on wminput configuration and execution. FUTURE IDEAS/IMPROVEMENTS ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The following list is neither complete nor ordered: wmcp (copy data between files and wiimotes) Move wiimote communications into a separate daemon (wiimoted) with which applications communicate via sockets (or some other means) wmgui logging Implement speaker gui/control interface to wminput Implement other drivers such as gesture recognition.
