When I run the chirpw I get a blank window with chirpw in the title.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Aug 18, 2011 at 4:45 PM, Dan Smith <span dir="ltr">&lt;<a href="mailto:dsmith@danplanet.com">dsmith@danplanet.com</a>&gt;</span> wrote:<br>

&gt; question is how do I install it in Ubuntu?<br>
<br>
</div>Actually, Steve is working on getting a nice deb package for it as we<br>
speak. So, you may want to avoid installing it on your system just yet<br>
in hopes that that will be available soon.<br>
<br>
In the meantime, you ca easily run it directly from source. Grab the<br>
.tar.gz file, extract it, go into the directory and run the &quot;chirpw&quot;<br>
file within. Let me know if you have trouble.<br>
