How to install Amora in Ubuntu

Filed in archive Devices on December 8, 2007

Whilst we are talking about Amora, here's how to install it.

First of, you need to install the client on your phone. You can download it using your phone or download it on your computer and then transfer it to your phone.

Next is to setup the server.

You need to have the gcc compiler, Xlibs, XTest libs, BlueZ libs and Imlib2 libs. So go and download/install it. Next step is to run

$ sudo apt-get install gcc libxext-dev libbluetooth2-dev libimlib2-dev libxtst-dev

Download the server application and then extract it to a temporary subdirectory.

Now here comes the tricky part, we need to compile the source.

$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ ../configure
$ make

If you have successfully compiled the code, you will have the binary named "amora". That is it! Invoke it and enjoy!
