Installation

• Get the arduino software from the ​Arduino main page.
• ​Installing ​Arduino on Linux
• For suse you can install through the rpm ​repository, e.g. for SuSe? 11.1

  zypper ar  http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/CrossToolchain:/avr/openSUSE_11.1/ arduino]
  zypper install avrdude avr-libc cross-avr-binutils cross-avr-gcc java-1_6_0-sun
  

The UI of the arduino software only works with the java implementation of sun!
