-====== Installing under Linux - V2 ====== 
  
-**NOTE:** This only applies to our old V2 application. ​ The latest V3 application (which also talks to V1 and V2 ECUs) installs and runs natively under Linux already.

-DSMLink is written in Java.  Java is cross platform. ​ So DSMLink should be as well.  And it is, mostly. ​ Here are the steps one user used to get DSMLink up and running under Linux. ​ Please keep in mind that this is not something we at ECMTuning support. ​ We're not going to be able to help much getting this up and going if you have problems. ​ It's being provided here for reference and archival purposes. ​ If the original author would step forward and claim this, I'll *gladly* include your name as key contributor. ​ I don't want anyone thinking I did this writeup. ​ I did not.  I'm merely copying the text here for reference.
