Any chance of a Debian Buster version of ModeSMixer2?

That is my preferred distro: Ubuntu has too many extras.

[sergsero]

Hello IanH,

I will see what differences there are in the library versions and try to compile it for debian quickly.

Hi All

I'm using RPi3 + Kinetic Puck 1090.My settings are as follows

--inSerial /dev/ttyUSB1:3000000:none
--outServer beast:30005
--add-points 38.44:27.01

but I have been getting a connection error for 2 days...

Before;
there was no problem 

[sergsero]

Sorry, yes, it is my fault that the processor architecture is not explicitly specified. All these builds above are made for Intel x86-64 architecture.

Thank you for the Debian 10 version. As abcd567 says Ubunti version does not run (despite trying to symlink libraries) so I have been using the 2015  Debian version of MM2
