 System Requirements
 -------------------
 
 - Linux kernel Rel. 2.4/2.6 with gnu C/C++ compiler
 - wxWidgets 2.8.8 or above (http://www.wxwidgets.com) (for graphical demos compilation)


 Installation notes
 ------------------
 
 - Install the N1568SDK library ( go to the N1568SDK/src folder and type make, make install).
 
 - compile the N1568 Demo (go to the N1568Demo folder and type ./configure, make, make install).
 
 Notes
 -----
 - Tested with Linux version 2.6.22, GCC-4.2.1
 
 - Note that the SDK's APIs (and the demos relying on that) open a physical serial comunication 
   device to inquire the board, so you likely need to be root to have the SDK properly working.
