installing from x10dev-2.1.2.tar.gz on a Slackware 10.1 (kernel 2.4.29)
reading through the index2.html#compiling documentation, under the
heading "2) Load the drivers",
for which I have a Serial PowerLinc, the documentation says to load
/usr/sbin/pl -device /dev/ttyS0
but I the compiled program that I think it means to execute
is /usr/sbin/pld
Also, the documentation says the example scripts are installed
to /usr/local/etc, but on my Slackware box,
there is a directory called that, but nothing is in the directory
after the installation. In that same paragraph
is a reference to RedHat and Slackware, so maybe I'm just misreading
it and /usr/local/etc is a RedHat specific
reference.
And yet another question, in ~/x10dev-2.1.2/example_scripts/x10.pl.sh,
the start() and stop() functions
call /usr/local/etc/x10.local but I don't see any file called
x10.local in the source or installed directories.
Where does this file come from? What does it do? I don't see it
referenced in the documentation.
