Since you seem to be in haste, why not use the pre-built packages as documented above? Or the ISO as documented here: https://github.com/pyzahl/Gxsm3? To install the missing packages on Ubuntu, you can consult the control file: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pyzahl/Gxsm3/master/debian/control_ubuntu22.04
Let us know if the instructions by Thorsten did the job for you. I have tried to follow my old recipes for Debian and I found that they no longer work. It seems that quite a few libraries were renamed beyond recognition or version detection does not work properly... I had suggested a few times to migrate to a more mdern build-framework, but @zahl seems to be happy with the autotools. There is a post from 2012, when I had build Gxsm successfully with Cmake, but I never pushed this proof-of-concept...
i'd recommend ubuntu, as it has the newer libraries usually. @zahl Do you keep the installation instructions in the Manual up to date? If not, I'd volunteer to update them for Bullseye.
I'll be there if timezone permits.
Whenever I was having trouble with the dconf configuration, I simply created a new user on the system (e.g. gxsm1, gxsm2, gxsm3, etc) to make sure that there are no side-effects from dconf or any other configuration. Sound brutal, but works. This also allowed me to keep different branches of configurations without much hassle. (of course assuming that you have root).
I used to have a similar script, located here, but not updated in a while. https://github.com/StefanSchroeder/gxsm-snippets
Marco, please note that you can also use Vi instead of Emacs for writing your code. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Editor_war for details.
Please post the configure/compile logs.
Hello Marco, thank you for your interest in becoming a Gxsm developer and contributor. It's great to hear that you are interested in expanding Gxsm's capabilities by applying it to new hardware. Well, we are a bit short on design documentation. Have you studied the PDF-manual? It talks about the high-level design and how data acquistion is organized. That's all I can offer you. Keep in mind that Gxsm is a study tool mostly used by researchers, created to do the job that we need. While contributions...

Haha, sorry, that' s a question for Thorsten. He's the export for that release. Most Gxsm developers compile the application from source. As another option, try creating another user and start Gxsm3 using the new user...
It seems, your installation is broken. Please reinstall (make install) and check the output to see if there are any error messsages.
Hi, in addons/cert.py it says: Cppcheck itself handles many CERT rules. I am unable to locate the implementation or a list of these CERT-rules claimed to be implemented. Can somebody point me to it? KR Stefan
For the record: I am running Linux Mint and I successfully compiled and ran Gxsm3 from SVN after I installed the following packages: There are some bad pacakge names in between, but at the end you should be good. CAVEAT: I have no HW. apt install subversion apt install autotools-dev apt install autoconf apt install intltool apt install yelp-tools apt install gtk-doc apt install gtk-doc-tools apt install auto-apt apt install gnome-devel apt install gnome-common apt install libxml-dev apt install libxml2-dev...
In contrast to regular python scripts -- those that you start from the command line -- the python interpreter that is run by Gxsm is not spawned outside of Gxsm. I haven't touched this in a while, but it should work along these lines: You write a Python script that imports the gxsm module. The script has a name which is pre-defined by convention. Perhaps it's now possible to pick the script name somewhere in a dialog or the preferences. Then you select 'Run the Python script' from the Gxsm-UI. Then...
The docs might be outdated. Try import 'gxsm' instead of import 'emb' The module is not physically present, but only virtually when python is run in the context of Gxsm. Might also be gxsm2
