What You Need

• A functioning unix system with development packages installed (gcc, make, etc...).

• A sound card and the privileges to use it.

• Perl (For the clients) with access to CPAN (Several Perl libraries are required from CPAN). See the client documentation for more information.

• The Peep source and a Peep sound package. Both of those can be obtained from the sourceforge website or via ftp at: ftp://download.sourceforge.net/pub/sourceforge/peep

• The expat library for XML parsing: http://expat.sourceforge.net.

I also suggest consulting the INSTALL text that is provided with each distribution. It provides similar information to what's found here and might be more current.
