SleepyHead on Ubuntu 16.04

[atab]

SleepyHead download is for Ubuntu Linux 15.04. Did any of you compile sources on 16.04?

[palerider]

14.04, 14.10, 15.04, 15.10 16.04... and likely, soon on 16.10.

iow, yes.

[atab]

Thanks for the reply. Did you install the downloaded deb file or did you have to re-compile from source?

[palerider]

Thanks for the reply. Did you install the downloaded deb file or did you have to re-compile from source?

er, you asked if anybody compiled from source, and I said yes.

I've been compiling the source for quite some time, as mentioned.

I haven't tried the deb file, it's not 'current' because the dev is lazy.

[atab]

Thanks, palerider. Then I will also compile. I wanted to know about installing the deb because I am also lazy

(Is the developer on this forum? I don't mind helping him/her a little. )

I got stuck in dependency hell once and just run under wine.

it's really not difficult.

it compiles with the QT that's included in 16.04, or you can install your own copy of qt. (5.4 or 5.5

these are the qt modules I have loaded:

libqt5clucene5
libqt5concurrent5
libqt5core5a
libqt5dbus5
libqt5designer5
libqt5designercomponents5
libqt5gui5
libqt5help5
libqt5multimedia5
libqt5multimedia5-plugins
libqt5multimediawidgets5
libqt5network5
libqt5opengl5
libqt5opengl5-dev
libqt5printsupport5
libqt5qml5
libqt5quick5
libqt5quickparticles5
libqt5quicktest5
libqt5quickwidgets5
libqt5serialport5
libqt5serialport5-dev
libqt5sql5
libqt5sql5-sqlite
libqt5svg5
libqt5test5
libqt5webkit5
libqt5webkit5-dbg
libqt5webkit5-dev
libqt5widgets5
libqt5x11extras5
libqt5xml5
qt5-qmake


many of them are loaded when you load some of the others. serialport catches people out, as does webkit.

I think part of my problem was ubuntu 32bit... I tried compiling... I found a band aid... When I either flush and start over or just get newer hardware I'll try again. Wine while not elegant, I still get my data. My atom 255 netbook does most of what I want, amusingly my phone does the rest.

Thanks Sleepyhead & Palerider!

it doesn't care 32 vs 64, I just happen to be running 64bit, so all the libraries and packages that I pulled in my list had amd64 stuck on the end, the 32bit version would work the same.

I'm running 16.04. I simply downloaded the most recent file (6 weeks ago), ran it, and it works fine.

There is a version in the Ubuntu repositories, 0.9.8-3 sudo apt-get install sleepyhead should install it.

I tried it on three different 16.04 systems, two with Ubuntu Mate and one with Kubuntu . All seemed to work OK.

Sleepyhead started hanging using the inport data icon on the opening screen,. I thought it might be the .0.9.08-3 version but get the same with 1.0 beta (broken GL) I compiled. It's not a big thing just takes it a minute or two to start importing Also seems to work better using the import data from the drop down menu, my guess is something changed on my systems, perhaps during an update.

Synaptic does display this in the change log sleepyhead (0.9.8-3) unstable; urgency=medium

* Team upload
* Use the new libquazip5 instead the old libquazip-qt5 (thanks for the patch
to Bas Couwenberg <sebastic@xs4all.nl>)
Closes: #810607

I finally got a CPAP machine that is not a plain brick. Now, it's the first time I try to use SleepyHead.
I am having no luck with SleepyHead on Ubuntu 16.04.
The version from the repository crashes when I try to import data. Have tried to navigate to the SD card, have copied the contents of the SD card to a folder, always the same result: nothing happens followed by a crash. [1]+ Segmentation fault (core dumped) SleepyHead

I have downloaded the source code for 1.0.0-beta-1 and I get the same error. With the debugger on, a pop-up windows tells "The inferior stopped because it received a signal from the operating system. Signal name: SIGSEGV. Signal meaning: Segmentation fault"

Can anybody help with this?

get rid of the one on the repository then, and use the one on the authors page: https://sleepyhead.jedimark.net/

If that doesn't work, compile your own.

That's a possibility, but I would rather not have to turn on a virtual machine just for this app. The Ubuntu version in the author's page is for 15.04, but seems to work in 16.04 also. However it has the same behaviour: Segmentation fault when loading data. I haven't tried the windows versions... I guess I will have to!

If that doesn't work, compile your own.

I already did this and got the same result. This is why I am asking for help

Well, maybe we should go back to basics...

I finally got a CPAP machine that is not a plain brick.

What?

related rant: WHY is it that so many people don't think it's important to provide basic information when they're asking for help?

"I've got this thing, it doesn't work, fix it".

what thing?
