1. Download and untar i2c7segment-1.0.tar.gz
2. Went through installation instructions just fine.
$ sudo apt-get install python-smbus
$ sudo apt-get install i2c-tools (usefull but not essential)
$ sudo modprobe i2c-dev
$ sudo modprobe i2c-bcm2708
$ sudo python setup.py install
3. Open clock_example.py and notice that the first line is:
import adafruit_7seg_backpack as display
But in the untar-ed folder, there is not really anything like
adafruit_7_seg_backpack.py
And in fact, running clock_example.py ($python clock_example.py) results in
this error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "clock_example.py", line 1, in <module>
import adafruit_7seg_backpack as display
ImportError: No module named adafruit_7seg_backpack
What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
