Problem with Ubuntu install - was How to uninstall WD?

[niko]

How does WD uninstall? I need to start over but I don't see it in the package list    (Unbuntu)

[Weather Display]

just deleting the folder where its installed to (and any subfolders) should be enough

[niko]

OK, I'll give that a try.

Hmmm, so I deleted it all. Downloaded a fresh one, extracted and installed it and I have the same problem, no menu  This is the latest Ubuntu.

You shouldn't have to install it. I just downloaded it, extracted it, switched to the folder /wdisplay and run WeatherD.

My WeatherD doesn't run. I was following other posts on here that say to run GoWeather.sh.

if you try to run from a console window, where WD is installed to
as
./WeatherD
what error shows up?

mine doesn’t run from weatherD, but runs fine from GoWeather.sh. I don’t run it from a terminal, just from the folder.

I’m running the GUI version.

I've been trying to test WD under Linux for a few months now on and off. My problem is that I wanted to use TCP/IP connectivity to VirtualVP but when I open the control panel for the connection the TCP/IP section for VVP is blank. Does Linux WD (GUI version) not support this now? Can anyone else confirm that this panel is blank?

I never used the TCP/IP area, but i do have stuff on it rather than a blank screen . see image.

No not that one, its on the Com port selection screen, there is a tab for it.

That's what happens when you run directly because it has not added the library which is what the script does. Right now I have a different problem where WD wont run, so I'll open a new thread for that once I'm sure it's not me!

Niko, you will need to first copy the library files to
/usr/

broadstairs, I have not had a chance to look into the TCP/IP yet
