This release has been tested to compile and run on stock Suse 9.2 and Gentoo 2004.2.

The tarball and Suse 9.2 RPMs for this release can be found in the ShowEQ Files section as well as on my web site.

• showeq-5.0.0.16.tar.bz2
• showeq-5.0.0.16-1.i586.rpm
• showeq-5.0.0.16-1.x86_64.rpm

To configure, compile, and install ShowEQ itself from the tar file, all you have to do is the following:

$ tar xjvf showeq-5.0.0.16.tar.bz2
$ cd showeq-5.0.0.16
$ ./configure
$ make
$ make install

If you happen to be on Suse 9.2 (and possibly Suse 9.1 and other RPM based systems) you can use the RPMs that I put up... So, on an Suse 9.2 system with an i586/i686 processor you only have to do the following to install ShowEQ:

$ rpm -ihv showeq-5.0.0.16-1.i586.rpm

If you use the RPMs please install the ShowEQ maps from the showeq-maps RPM.

Directly building from CVS is still supported, but deprecated for non-developers.

Tanner will release debs for debian.

Enjoy,
Zaphod (dohpaZ)
