Unable to install picoscope on ubuntu mate
Unable to install picoscope on ubuntu mate
Hello, I have ps2405a and raspberry pi 3 b+ model. I have 2 SD-cards, one loaded with raspbian stretch and other loaded with Ubuntu mate 18.04 armv7.
I have installed drivers using command sudo apt-get install libps2000a and executed example python files from github which is working properly.
However I want to install picoscope on either Mate 18.04 or raspbian stretch, so I followed instructions for installing picoscope on ubuntu 18.04 lts.
After running sudo apt-get install picoscope command, I get this following error on both OS. :-
pi@pi-desktop:~$ sudo apt-get install picoscope

Re: Unable to install picoscope on ubuntu mate
Hi,
We do not have a version of PicoScope software for the arm platform.
But you can install drivers and library files to write your own software to use our PicoScopes and dataloggers.
See the section "Drivers for Raspberry Pi" at the bottom of https://www.picotech.com/downloads/linux
NOTE we currently only have armhf (32-bit) and not arm64 driver support.

Re: Unable to install picoscope on ubuntu mate
Hi, but I am running ubuntu 32bit (armv7) on pi .
And on wiki I found that armhf refers to armv7 architecture.
So what ubuntu Mate that I have installed on pi is correct or is there something I am missing..?
