Re: [chirp_users] chirp on a power pc

Dan, I'm impressed! Job well done!

Downloaded it from the ppa, added myself to the tty group, logedout and back in. volia, it works. I'm using Kubuntu 12.04.

Awesome, glad to hear it. Every once in a while, someone comes around asking about support for PPC macs on OSX. I was about to fire off my typical "heck no, get a new computer!" response. Glad I read that you're using a recent OS first. CHIRP is platform and processor-independent, but many of the things it depends on are not. Building those for the last version of OSX to support PPC is not feasible, but it's already done on a recent linux distro.

Enjoy :)
