I used linux to record the data because it's the only OS that will show you EXACTLY what's happening on the USB bus. The final solution (when we have drivers for everything) will work on all 3.

And the goal isn't to get it into EPA. The goal is to get it into a format that any programmer could get into, hopefully providing a better designed database and an easier-to-query format.

All of this is a ways down the road though. Current work IS OS specific to Mac/Linux (simultaneously). Once we have drivers for those systems we can begin work on the core chunk.

Great start guys - hell, if you create something that's better than Encore Pro, respironics may purchase it from you

I don't really want to clutter up the boards with this, but we're not doing anything illegal here. We're not even going to sell the software. It'll be open source.

The best way for Respironics to kill this project would be to hire me ASAP. lol.

but will it run on xbuntu 6.10?

hey I'm cheap and wireless works with it

I'm developing the driver on Kubuntu Edgy, so I'd say it'll probably work on xubuntu before it works on OS X.

that's okay, I have one of those sluggo Mac Mini's with Tiger, now only using it as a big iPOD.

Well, feel free to wait to use the mac...
