I am following Ole Saether's (osaether) instructions to install his tsmppt drivers on my Cerbo GX (running firmware v2.92) as follows:
and all was going well until I reached the qmake command... I have never heard of qmake, and haven't been able to figure out how to install qmake...
Could anyone kindly advise?Best wishes,

VenusOS, the linux distribution that runs on the CerboGX is not a development device. It is an embedded OS and therefore compilers and build tools are not on the device. You will need to get the VenusOS SDK and a linux machine. Using the VenusOS SDK you can then compile the software and put the resultant binary on the CerboGX.
Having looked at his gift repository, he clearly states the following:
In order to build the application for the CCGX you need a linux system, a recent version of the QT libraries and the CCGX SDK. You can find instructions on installing the CCGX SDK here:
https://github.com/victronenergy/venus/wiki/howto-install-and-use-the-sdk
You will also need libmodbus v3.1.2 or higher (http://libmodbus.org/).
Unless you have experience compiling code and developing be ready for a long haul to get this working. There will be few on this forum that can support you.
