Re: [Motion-user] Problems compiling for ARM (Raspberry Pi)

SourceForge Headquarters 1320 Columbia Street Suite 310 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 422-6466

Well I seem to have solved that error. I followed the instructions here
http://archlinuxarm.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1531&p=8877#p8837, and
commented out the code snippet referring to emms. Everything is compiled
and installed. Now to see if motion actually works.

This was a slow and painful experience!
