X-IvAp on Linux 64 bits with automatic frequency tunning tutorial

[nicowork]

Hello,

The tutorial bellow allow to use X-IvAp on Linux 64 bits (Debian/Ubuntu) with automatic frequency tunning (switch automatically between Teamspeak channels and servers when you change the frequency on COM1 in X-Plane).


1) Install X-IvAp
$ mkdir X-IvAp_034_lin
$ tar xjf X-IvAp_034_lin.tar.bz2 -C X-IvAp_034_lin
$ find X-IvAp_034_lin/ -name '*.DS_Store' -type f -print -exec rm {} \;
$ cd X-IvAp_034_lin/for_plugins_folder
$ mv X-IvApp* /home/user/X-Plane\ 10/Resources/plugins/
$ cd ..
# cp libfmodex64.so /usr/lib/


2) Install Debian package teamspeak-client

https://packages.debian.org/wheezy/teamspeak-client

Note: Wheezy package workfine on Jessie.
$ wget http://http.debian.net/debian/pool/n...-3.1_amd64.deb
# dpkg -i teamspeak-client_2.0.32-3.1_amd64.deb
# apt-get install -f


3) Install 32 bits PulseAudio DSP libs
# apt-get install --no-install-recommends libpulse0:i386 libpulsedsp:i386
Note: The procedure bellow will fix: ERROR: ld.so: object '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pulseaudio/libpulsedsp.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64): ignored.
# cp /usr/bin/padsp /usr/bin/padsp32
# sed -i 's/\/usr\/lib\/x86_64-linux-gnu\/pulseaudio\/libpul
Add padsp before teamspeak binary as TeamSpeak 2 is only compatible with OSS:
# vi /usr/bin/teamspeak
---
#!/bin/sh
#
# This file is public domain.

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/teamspeak-client${LD_LIBRARY_PATH:+:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH}
padsp32 /usr/lib/teamspeak-client/teamspeak.real $@
---


4) Install alternate Teamspeak
Note: This is required because Debian package doesn't contain SDK stuff (tsControl is part of SDK stuff)
$ wget http://http.debian.net/debian/pool/n...32.orig.tar.gz
$ tar xzfv teamspeak-client_2.0.32.orig.tar.gz -C /home/user/ --strip-components=2 ts2_client_rc2_2032/setup.data/image
$ mv image TeamSpeak2
$ cd /home/user/
$ vi TeamSpeak2/TeamSpeak
---
-export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=%installdir%:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
-%installdir%/TeamSpeak.bin $*
+export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/user/TeamSpeak2:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
+padsp32 /home/user/TeamSpeak2/TeamSpeak.bin $*
---
Note: Add padsp32 before teamspeak binary as TeamSpeak 2 is only compatible with OSS. See linux_debian__teamspeak-client.txt for padsp32 setup.


5) Replace TeamSpeak 2 orginal tsControl by a patched one
Get tsControl.zip from http://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?...or-linux-64bit
$ unzip tsControl.zip
$ mv /home/user/TeamSpeak2/client_sdk/tsControl /home/user/TeamSpeak2/client_sdk/tsControl.org
$ mv tsControl /home/user/TeamSpeak2/client_sdk/tsControl
$ chmod 755 /home/user/TeamSpeak2/client_sdk/tsControl


6) Install PythonInterface
# apt-get install libpython2.7
$ wget http://www.xpluginsdk.org/downloads/...nInterface.zip
$ unzip PythonInterface.zip
$ mv PythonInterface /home/user/X-Plane\ 10/Resources/plugins/
$ mkdir /home/user/X-Plane\ 10/Resources/plugins/PythonScripts


7) Install XP2TS
Note: This will allow to switch automatically between Teamspeak channels and servers when you change the frequency on COM1 in X-Plane.
$ wget -O XP2TS-master.zip https://github.com/dornathal/XP2TS/archive/master.zip
$ unzip XP2TS-master.zip
$ mv XP2TS-master/PI_XP2TS.py /home/user/X-Plane\ 10/Resources/plugins/PythonScripts/
$ rm -r -f XP2TS-master
$ vi /home/user/X-Plane\ 10/Resources/plugins/PythonScripts/PI_XP2TS.py
---
PI_XP2TS : __ResourcePath = "/home/user/X-Plane 10/Resources/plugins/X-IvAp Resources/"
---


8) Configure X-IvAp
$ vi /home/user/X-Plane\ 10/Resources/plugins/X-IvAp\ Resources/X-IvAp.conf
