Alan, thanks for the link. But I tried it and it was a dead end. I took a look aroung the site I was directed too and found this link

http://www.designspark.com/blog/using-t ... spberry-pi

I'm not sure if it's the same one as you were trying too link us too. As you can see the only difference is that a couple of words have been added.

That is the same link, Design Spark changed things around towards the end of last year and broke the original one.

Hello everybody,

root@raspberrypi:/drdaq# sudo dpkg -i libusbpico_1.0-1_{i386|armel}.deb
bash: armel}.deb: command not found
dpkg: error processing libusbpico_1.0-1_{i386 (--install):
cannot access archive: No such file or directory
Errors were encountered while processing:

Thank you Martyn, but... the answer is:
root@raspberrypi:/drdaq# sudo dpkg -i libusbpico_1.0-1_armel.deb
dpkg: error processing libusbpico_1.0-1_armel.deb (--install):
package architecture (armel) does not match system (armhf)
Errors were encountered while processing:
libusbpico_1.0-1_armel.deb

Our drivers are written for the armel emulated floating point image and not the armhf hard floating point version.

It was the wheezy armel image that we built the drivers for. Not sure if there is still a download for this on the pi site. I will have a look what we have when I am back in the office.

Thank you, I have to find an old image, than I can prepare my sample.
But, as soon as possible should be necessary to re compile the library for the image available in the web. The first that will do it should share it here (If I'll do it I'll share it).
Thanks for all
Alessandro

I'd be interested in a armhf compilation if it became available.
This is the default that came with my RaspberryPi....
Appreciate your help.
