Running aXbo research software on linux (for aXbo SPAC - Sleep Phase Alarm Clock)

UPDATE: there is now a version 2.0, see my new post

it's actually pretty easy :

- connect the aXbo to your linux computer using the provided USB cable

- download the JNLP file from their web interface (you need to register first)

- run

javaws aXbo.jnlp

Note: on my 64-bit Gentoo system I had to use "Sun 32bit JRE 1.6.0.07 [emul-linux-x86-java-1.6]" as user VM for this to work.

Then from the menu use the "find aXbo" function. If it fails, check

dmesg

to make sure that the USB connection has been properly initialised - the aXbo has a usb-to-serial converter inside:

(from lsusb)

ID 10c4:ea60 Cygnal Integrated Products, Inc.

(from dmesg)

[31426.366845] usb 2-2: New USB device found, idVendor=10c4, idProduct=ea60
[31426.366856] usb 2-2: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3
[31426.366863] usb 2-2: Product: CP2102 USB to UART Bridge Controller
[31426.366868] usb 2-2: Manufacturer: Silicon Labs
[31426.366871] usb 2-2: SerialNumber: 0001

The proper usbserial module (cp2101) was automatically loaded on my Gentoo system and a friend's Ubuntu laptop (both with fairly recent kernels though).

Now I'd like to bypass the GUI to be able to set the clock and download the data from the command line, but that's another story...

Dear Linux-Users,

The aXbo software support has given us now a link for the software for Linux:

http://www.axbo.com/webstart/aXbo_unix_2_0_14.sh

I hope this makes the installation easier.

Good morning. Every day.
the aXbo team

Since this page ranks high on googles, let it be known that a new version is available.

Solved...

The system create a /dev/ttyUSB0 device for the uucp user group, so only I need to add me to this group.

#2.1.1 Joaquin Ferrero on 2009-10-14 09:04 (Reply)

New version: v2.0.18

But in my Linux, it don't find the serial port (/dev/ttyUSB0).

My Linux is a OpenSuse 10.3.

if you experience the axbo32bit vs java64bit problem on Ubuntu (10.10):

apt-get install ia32-sun-java6-bin
sudo update-alternatives --config java

#and choose the 32bit version
