Help with uControl, 10.3.8, and my attempt to fix....

[ericc22]

Greetings,

In trying to fix the problem with uControl caused by upgrading to 10.3.8, I made it worse!

I tried the fix at http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1119697&group_id=87303&atid=582661. After entering everything into terminal the last 2 lines produced a strange behavior:

----
Eric-Cohens-Computer:~/Desktop/ucontrolfix/ucontrol1.4.4/src Eric$ make
-bash: make: command not found
Eric-Cohens-Computer:~/Desktop/ucontrolfix/ucontrol1.4.4/src Eric$ sudo make install
Password:

----

So then I got smart. I figured I'd uninstall uControl, and then install it again, and start over again cleanly. Duh! I found that with 10.3.8 installed, I can't even install the broken uControl, so now I can't even try the fix. Doh!

Can anyone help? Basically, I am on 10.3.8, wanting uControl, and I can't install it. Any suggestions? Do I have to just wait for the update? I fear that might be a while....

Thanks for any and all help!

Eric

You didn't have the Developer Tools installed it looks like... install XCode and try to recompile from the source.

Thanks! Now of course the next question, how do I do that?! And that will then let me reinstall uControl?

I'll do some googling but if anyone has some hints, that would be great! (I am not computer knowledgeable, and am also new to Macs, so go easy on me....)

Thank you!

Eric

uControl has been updated (v 1.4.6) and now works fine with 10.3.8.
