************************************************************************************** Linux compatibility Last modified: 2018-02-09 ************************************************************************************** This software is running on Linux with the help of the Mono runtime environment without any modifications. Some precautions are necessary depending on the your Linux system. I cannot verify all existing variants but see some samples below. After you have finished all preparations: - simple copy all the files in a directory of your choice - open a terminal window there - run AirScout Plane Server by typing "mono AirScoutPlaneServer.exe" VERY IMPORTANT TO IMPORT SSL CERTIFICATES TO THE MONO CERTIFICATE STORE MANUALLY!!! This guarantees the download from websites with SSL encryption (https://). Mono is using its own certificate store different from system or Mozilla's web browser. The synchronisation should be done automatically but I found it not working after downloading the Mono package. ************************************************************************************** Installation samples ************************************************************************************** *** Suse Linux 13.2 KDE 4 (64bit) *** 1. Install Mono 4.x complete package "mono-complete.ymp" 2. Install the "ca-certificates-mozilla" package to get SSL certificates 3. Import the certificates into the Mono certificate store by typing "sudo cert-sync /etc/ssl/ca-bundle.pem" (can be a different location on other versions!) *** Raspberry Pi V1 with jessie *** The latest Mono package in the Raspian repository is V3.2.8. You will need to upgrade manually to V4.xxx. 1. Open a Terminal window. 2. Type this in or paste: sudo su - echo "deb http://plugwash.raspbian.org/mono4 jessie-mono4 main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list apt-get update 3.
