Oculus DK2 installation on Ubuntu 14.04 - cannot find ludev

Question

When I run the command, make from the 0.4.4 oculus linux package, I keep getting this error:

g++  -o ./Release/OculusWorldDemo_x86_64_Debug  ./Obj/Linux/Debug/x86_64/OculusWorldDemo.o ./Obj/Linux/Debug/x86_64/OculusWorldDemo_Scene.o ./Obj/Linux/Debug/x86_64/Player.o ./Obj/Linux/Debug/x86_64/../CommonSrc/Util/RenderProfiler.o ./Obj/Linux/Debug/x86_64/../CommonSrc/Util/OptionMenu.o ./Obj/Linux/Debug/x86_64/../CommonSrc/Platform/Linux_Gamepad.o ./Obj/Linux/Debug/x86_64/../CommonSrc/Platform/Linux_Platform.o ./Obj/Linux/Debug/x86_64/../CommonSrc/Platform/Platform.o ./Obj/Linux/Debug/x86_64/../CommonSrc/Render/Render_Device.o ./Obj/Linux/Debug/x86_64/../CommonSrc/Render/Render_GL_Device.o ./Obj/Linux/Debug/x86_64/../CommonSrc/Render/Render_LoadTextureDDS.o ./Obj/Linux/Debug/x86_64/../CommonSrc/Render/Render_LoadTextureTGA.o ./Obj/Linux/Debug/x86_64/../CommonSrc/Render/Render_XmlSceneLoader.o ./Obj/Linux/Debug/x86_64/../../3rdParty/TinyXml/tinyxml2.o -L../../LibOVR/Lib/Linux/Debug/x86_64 -lovr -ludev -lpthread -lGL -lX11 -lXrandr -lrt
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -ludev

What do I need to do to make Oculus work? I've had this for over 2 months now and haven't used yet because installation hasnt been possible to resolve.

Answer 1

您需要安装libudev和libudev-dev软件包。

sudo apt-get install libudev-dev libudev0 

Answer 2

get ludev from http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/i386/libudev0/download download it, then install package with

sudo dpkg -i libudev0_175-0ubuntu9_i386.deb

you may have to do a

sudo apt-get install libudev-dev libudev0

for good measure now you can do the make , make run
