Samsung Uproar Linux Utility (sulu)

Sulu is a graphical utility for transferring mp3's between
your Samsung Uproar and your Linux computer.  It uses the 
GTK+ toolkit for the user interface and libusb.  Sulu is
licensed under the GPL (see the file COPYING).

Sulu now also works with many Samsung Yepp devices.  Try it!

You will need a kernel with USB support properly configured.  
You can check whether USB is properly configured by plugging 
in the device and then typing:

grep Vendor /proc/bus/usb/devices

You should see a line that begins with "Vendor="

If you do not have the libusb shared libraries and development 
libraries installed (RH 7.3 does) download them from:

http://libusb.sourceforge.net/download.html

To compile sulu, just type "make".  The executable is named sulu.
You need to run as root or see note03 in the notes directory.

Sulu will now down convert the bitrate of mp3s and transfer them as
64k or 128k (menu selectable), if you have lame and mpg123 lib 
installed.  A temporary file will be created in /tmp.
