			Now start the SmartScope (as unpriviledged user)
			$ mono /opt/smartscope/SmartScope.exe

			Alternatively to commandline, and with less typing, you can start the tool via the KDE icon "Kickoff Application Launcher", tab Applications / SmartScope .

==openSUSE==
The following notes were kindly provided by Alfons Grammer:
<pre>
Install SmartScope on openSUSE 13.2

Get and install the tool alien by 1-click-install from
https://software.opensuse.org/package/alien

Convert the deb to rpm package, be patient, it takes a while.
$ alien -r -c SmartScope-Linux-0-5-0-0.deb
Now you have labnation-smartscope-0.5.0.0-2.noarch.rpm

In Yast (or zypper), install
mono-base, which includes several other mono packages
libSDL_mixer, which installs micmod3 soundlib
labnation-smartscope-0.5.0.0-2.noarch.rpm

Alternatively install smartscope by a click to the file from your browser window in case you do not have a local rpm folder.

Create a link to GDIPlus lib (unclear, why mono does not handle this correctly. This could be different in your case, just try)
# ln -s /usr/lib64/libgdiplus.so.0.0.0 /usr/lib64/libgdiplus.so

Now start the SmartScope (as unpriviledged user)
$ mono /opt/smartscope/SmartScope.exe

If the scmartscope comes up, I strongly suggest, before going further, to read through the good manual at URL
http://wiki.lab-nation.com/index.php/Main_Page
or just click in the menu on System / manual

Some background

The tool smartscope is not a native Linux application, but requires the framework "mono" to be executed.
Apart from mono, the installation creates files in
/etc/udev/rules.d/99-labnation-smartscope.rules
/opt/smartscope

Detailed log follws here.

yast, install mono-base

=Connecting the SmartScope to your Linux box=
# Connect the SmartScope's central miniB USB port with a miniB cable to your PC, as shown in the image below:<br>[[File:ConnectToPc.jpg|600px]]

You may need to change permissions to allow communication on that USB port.
