That firmware is proprietary and -cannot be distributed within Debian, but Argyll provides a tool to -extract that firmware from the driver CD provided with the device. - -If you're only using your Spyder2 on one computer, then all you need -to do is run the "spyd2en -S l" utility (as root) while the driver CD -is mounted. spyd2en looks for the CD in a few typical mount points -(/media/ColorVision, /mnt/cdrom, /media/cdrom, /cdrom). If your CD is -mounted somewhere else, just add the location of the "setup.exe" file, -for instance "spyd2en -S l /mnt/tmp/setup/setup.exe". In both cases, -the firmware will be extracted and stored into -/usr/share/color/spyd2PLD.bin, where the other utilities will be able -to look for it when needed. You're done! - -If you use the Spyder2 on several computers, and don't want to carry -the CD and perform the same operation on all, you might like to -generate a Debian package containing the firmware on one computer, and -install that package on the others. A source package is provided in -/usr/share/doc/argyll/examples/spyder2.tar.gz. Here's the procedure -for the first computer: - -- first, extract the firmware with spyd2en (as above); -- then, apt-get install debhelper fakeroot build-essential; -- uncompress the spyder2.tar.gz archive somewhere; - you'll get a argyll-firmware-spyder2 directory; -- in that directory, run "fakeroot debian/rules binary clean"; -- you should get a .deb in the parent directory. - -You can then copy that .deb file to other computers and install it -with "dpkg -i argyll-firmware-spyder2_1.1_all.deb". You're done! - - -- Roland Mas , Thu, 05 Aug 2010 15:44:23 +0200 -- cgit v1.2.3
