TMI maintains an APT repository containing some of the code available from this
website. We use this repository in-house, and it is fairly well tested on 32
-and 64 bit Intel and AMD based workstations running Ubuntu Hardy and Ubuntu
-Karmic.
-
-At this time, we do not recommend others using this repository. Having said
-that, TMI staff and a few others do use it, generally for access to TinyOS with
-TMI extensions. This repository will become more useful once TMI moves to host
-it as a PPA on Ubuntu Launchpad. Look for this in the coming months, and also
-support for 10.04 LTS (Lucid Lynx).
+and 64 bit Intel and AMD based workstations running Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy Heron),
+Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala), Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (Lucid Lynx), Ubuntu 10.10
+(Maverick Meerkat), Ubuntu 11.04 (Natty Narwhal), and Ubuntu 12.04 (Precise
+Pangolin). Ubuntu derivatives, like Xubuntu (used at TMI), should work fine.
+
+32-bit and 64-bit architectures are supported for all distributions except for
+Ubuntu 12.04. Packages for 12.04 are only currently being built for the 32-bit
+architecture. However, the [[cp210x]] driver package is distributed as a dkms
+package that is compiled during installation and so does support 64-bit.
+
+TMI can provide support for this repository and TinyOS software development.
+Please use the e-mail address in the top-right corner of this web page to ask
+for more information about our services.
+
+TMI is currently using 12.04 32-bit internally for development. Support for
+older distributions remains in the repository, but will no longer receive
+updates. We will attempt to answer basic questions; please use the e-mail
+address in the top right corner of this web page. TMI can be engaged for a host
+of development and development support tasks.

+## Ubuntu Precise
+
+TMI is using Xubuntu 12.04 internally on its development workstations. As such,
+the ubuntu-precise repository is the same as used internally. This repository
+is just fine for most any Ubuntu derivative distribution, but only supports
+32-bit versions.
+
+Contents of the APT repostory, as of 2012-07-09, for Ubuntu 12.04. Since the
+standard Ubuntu repositories now include an recent GCC 4.5.3 msp430 cross
+toolchain, the one built by TMI is no longer necessary or maintained. Note that
+as of 2012-06-15 the gdb-msp430 apt package has an installation error, which is
+likely to be fixed soon. tinyos-msp430 is a TMI meta package that incorporates
+installation of the msp430 cross toolchain packages from the standard
+repositories, but for the reason noted above the gdb-msp430 package, and by
+extension the mspdebug package, is not automatically installed.

# How to use
-## Step 1 - Add the backports repository
+## Step 1 - Add the backports repository (Ubuntu Hardy only)
Ubuntu Hardy users need to activate the hardy-backports repository, as our
`cp210x-module-dkms` package requires a newer `dkms` than is available
## Step 2 - Adding the TMI repository to the sources list
+### For 11.04 and earlier:
+
cat <<+EOF+ | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/tmi.list
# TMI repository
deb http://oss.titaniummirror.com/ubuntu hardy main
+EOF+
sudo apt-get update
+### For 12.04:
+
+12.04 support is working but in an early state. TMI needs to find some time to
+clean things up a bit. TMI developers are currently using 12.04 i386. 64-bit
+support is not yet available for 12.04.
+
+ cat <<+EOF+ | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/tmi.list
+ # TMI repository
+ deb http://oss.titaniummirror.com/ubuntu-precise hardy main
+ deb-src http://oss.titaniummirror.com/ubuntu-precise hardy main
+ +EOF+
+ sudo apt-get update
+
+
## Step 2 - Adding the TMI package key
When you issued `apt-get update` above, you saw a key warning. Resolve future
pub 1024D/E9BE0373 2009-12-08
uid TMI Packages <EMAILADDR>
-The email address above is *com dot titaniummirror at pkgs*, in reverse.
+The <EMAILADDR> above is *com dot titaniummirror at pkgs*, in reverse.
## Step 3 - Install packages
You can now install packages from the TMI repository. For example:
-* Install our [[tinyos]] development suite: `sudo apt-get install tinyos`
+* Install the TMI [[tinyos]] development suite: `sudo apt-get install tinyos`
-* Install our [[cp210x]] driver: `sudo apt-get install cp210x-module-dkms`
+* Install the TMI [[cp210x]] driver: `sudo apt-get install cp210x-module-dkms`
