PRUSA FIRMWARE

When I built my Prusa in 2011, I used Sanguino electronics, and Sprinter firmware. PC ran Windows operations system.

Now (2015), I need to modify the firmware. PC is running Linux (Mint 17, similar to Ubuntu).

sprinter is broken for sanguino / sanguinololu

It seems the names sanguino was changed to sanguinololu at some point.

I find that all the references to the Sanguino support now point to a binoculars manufacturer in Australia.

the readme instructions specify:

3. Get the sanguino software, version 0023

  http://sanguino.cc/softwareforlinux

Becusae this does not lead to sanguino / sanguinololu support, the instructions for sprinter cannot be completed.

I tried hacking around for a bit , but also found this instructin:

5. Edit INSTALL_DIR inside Sprinter/Makefile (do not mind the default reference to arduino 0022)

I cannot determine if this instruction applies to linux, or only to windows.

At this point all I know is that there are sufficient errors to prevent me from setting up the firmware.

I will pursue other options.
