HowTo...
 Download and Install the PEAK-System LINUX CAN Driver as CharDev Device and runn all included samples

What to do up in front:
* Be sure you have root previleges to install the driver and copy the libs
* Be sure you have update your system (apt-get update)
* Be sure you have basic LINUX knwoledge 

Login to your system
Go to your home directory
Create a directory for the files (for example PEAK-Linux) by call

$ mkdir PEAK-Linux
$ cd PEAK-Linux

Download the PCAN-Linux PDF manual (and also read it!)
wget http://www.peak-system.com/produktcd/Develop/PC%20interfaces/Linux/PCAN-Linux%20Driver/PCAN-Driver_for_Linux_eng.pdf

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Step1 - download and install the driver

Download the PEAK-Linux driver package
(Take care to use the latest Version - so replace the x with the current version example: peak-linux-driver-7.9.tar.gz)

$ wget http://www.peak-system.com/produktcd/Develop/PC%20interfaces/Linux/PCAN-Linux%20Driver/peak-linux-driver-x.x.tar.gz

Unpack packages
$ tar -xzf peak-linux-driver-x.x.tar.gz


Change to the driver directory
$ cd peak-linux-driver-7.9

Call make with your needed settings
For example build for CharDev (NET=NO) and without ISA/Dongle/PCI and PC Card Support - only USB
$ make all NET=NO PCI=NO ISA=NO DNG=NO PCC=NO

When you get the error "popt.h not found", please call
$ sudo apt-get install libpopt-dev
and call the make again

After that install the driver and lib by calling 
$ sudo make install
and 
$ modprobe pcan

Check if the driver is installed, and if your interface is connected (be sure your USB CAN Interface is plugged in!)
$ cat /proc/pcan

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Step2 - download and install the PCAN-Basic for Linux (skip if you do not want to use API)

Download the PEAK-Linux PCAN-Basic package (be sure you are in the directory you created for the PEAK stuff!)
Always use the latest Version - so replace the x with the current version example: PCAN_Basic_Linux-2.0.2tar.gz
$ wget http://www.peak-system.com/produktcd/Develop/PC%20interfaces/Linux/PCAN-Basic_API_for_Linux/PCAN_Basic_Linux-x.x.xtar.gz

Unpack packages
$ tar -xzf PCAN_Basic_Linux-x.x.x.tar.gz

Change to the unpacked files and the LIB directory
$ cd PCAN_Basic_Linux-2.0.2/pcanbasic

Call make 
$ make all 

After that install the lib by calling 
$ sudo make install

Compile the c++ /phyton sample
$ cd sample
$ make all
and run a simple receive test
$ cd c++
$ ./pcaneventread 
Initialize CAN: 0
  - R ID: 123 LEN:3 DATA:12 23 45 00 00 00 00 00
  - R ID: 456 LEN:3 DATA:03 02 01 00 00 00 00 00

  - R ID: 123 LEN:3 DATA:12 23 45 00 00 00 00 00

To run the Python sample you need the Tkinter package
$ apt-get install python-tk
and the Tix
$ apt-get install Tix (TK extension library)
then run the sample (need GUI/X-Windows)
$ python PCANBasicExample.pyw

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Step 3 - compile and run sample code

After a successful compiling and installing the PEAK CharDev Linux drivers and the PCAN-Basic Linux lib, 
on a DEBIAN based Distribution (Ubuntu, MintOS etc.), you could compile and run samples with graphical Interface.

For that you need to install the following packages. 
**
If you are not sure what you are doing - stop here - use Google and read manuals.
**
We could no support by setup your Environment - if you have any problem to get this things work on you System, please ask the community / read more manual.


I.)
Install Basic Development Environment- follow this instruction:
https://wiki.gnome.org/DeveloperTools/Installation/Ubuntu

$ sudo apt-get install g++

If you want to use our PCAN-View for Linux example you need the GTK+2:
$ sudo apt-get install gtk+2.0
$ wget http://www.peak-system.com/cupd2/PCAN-View-LINUX-GTK+.tar.gz 

NOTICE - this download link will no longer available - ask for this file at support@peak-system.com

$ tar -xzf PCAN-View-LINUX-GTK+.tar.gz
$ cd pcanview
$ make all

and run the tool (need GUI/X-Windows)
$ ./pcanview


II.)
Recommended Development Tools (incl GTK+ Development)

anjuta - Integrated development environment (or use your favorite IDE or text editor)
glade - Interface designer
devhelp - API Browser

$ sudo apt-get install anjuta glade devhelp

For Phyton:
$ sudo apt-get install python python-gobject

If you want to use the newer GTK+3 download these packages

$ sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse 
$ sudo apt-get install libgtk-3-doc gstreamer0.10-doc libclutter-1.0-doc libgda-5.0-doc
$ sudo apt-get install libgtk-3-dev libgstreamer0.10-dev libclutter-1.0-dev libwebkitgtk-3.0-dev libgda-5.0-dev
$ sudo apt-get install libgtkmm-3.0-dev libgstreamermm-0.10-dev libgdamm5.0-dev

Docu:
$ sudo apt-get install libgtkmm-3.0-doc libgstreamermm-0.10-doc libgdamm5.0-doc


III.)
For Java Development:

Install JAVA JDK/JRE
(see http://www.webupd8.org/2012/01/install-oracle-java-jdk-7-in-ubuntu-via.html)

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install oracle-java7-installer


IV.) 
To automatically set up the Java 7 environment variables, you can install the following package:
sudo apt-get install oracle-java7-set-default


V.)
To Edit the Java sample incl. graphical Interface
Install NetBeans 7.x or eclipse
Before you could use the PCAN-Basic for JAVA Interface you need to compile and install the JNI first (Java Native Interface)
The source could be found in the PCAN_Basic_Linux package in the Subdirectory pcanjni

!Please check if the Java Version you use fit to the project settings!
Change in the make file the JAVA_HOME to your installed environment
For example:
JAVA_HOME = /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-oracle

After that call 
$ make all
$ make install 
to build and install the JNI Lib


VI.)
To remove the JAVA JDK7 
$ sudo apt-get remove oracle-java7-installer
