Denis- It's my understanding that you are supposed to put user contributed libraries in a folder called "libraries" located in the same folder where your sketches are located.
For example, under Windows my sketches are in "D:\Users\bradb\documents\Arduino" and the libraries are located in "D:\Users\bradb\documents\Arduino\libraries". Hope this helps, Brad KF7FER On Sat, Sep 20, 2014 at 2:02 PM, Denis Heidtmann <[email protected]> wrote: > Running Ubuntu 12.04, I installed the Arduino IDE (using the Software > Center).
