	<h2>Software</h2>
        
        <p>To use anyRemote over bluetooth connection it needs to install <a href="http://www.bluez.org/">bluez</a> (Bluetooth protocol stack). 
        You should probably install at least bluez-libs, bluez-libs-devel and bluez-utils packages.
        </p> 
        
	<p>To use XTest X11 extension it needs to install libXtst package. Also, it needs to install /usr/include/X11/extensions/XTest.h
	header if You plans to compile anyRemote from sources (depending on distro it could be in xorg-x11-proto-devel or libXtst-dev packages).
        </p> 
        
        <p>To use anyRemote over IR connection it needs to install <a href="http://irda.sourceforge.net/">irda-util</a> package.
        </p>

        <p>If You plans to use anyRemote with <a href="use-jc.html">java client</a> it needs to install <a href="dload.html">anyremote-J2ME-client</a> package.
        </p>

        <p>To use anyRemote with <a href="web.html">web interface</a> it needs to install <a href="dload.html">anyRemote2http</a> package.
        </p>

	<p>If You plan to compile anyRemote form sources it needs to install  
	<ul>
	<li><a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/automake/">automake</a>
	<li><a href="www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/">autoconf</a>
	<li>gcc compiler
	</ul>
        </p>

	<p>If You plans to use GUI front-ends then it needs to install:
	<ul>
	<li><a href="http://www.python.org">python</a> 2.4</li>
	<li><a href="http://org.csail.mit.edu/pybluez/">PyBluez</a> </li>
	<li><a href="http://www.pygtk.org">PyGTK</a> 2.10 or newer for Gnome front-end</li>
	<li><a href="http://www.riverbankcomputing.com">PyQt</a> and <a href="http://www.riverbankcomputing.com">PyKDE</a> for KDE frontend</li>
	</ul>
        
        </p>
    	
        <p>To see on-screen help messages it needs to install <b>dialog</b> utility 
        </p>
        
        <h2>Other software which could be helpful</h2>

       	<p>To make <a href="setup-at.html">verification steps</a> it is useful to install some terminal emulator, like <b>Minicom</b> or <b>cu</b>. 
        <b>cu</b> can be preferred for its simplisity. In Fedora Linux <b>cu</b> can be installed from uucp package.
        </p>

       	<p>If You plans use anyRemote with JSR-82 capabled phone and <a href="set.html#sec-image">upload icons</a> to 
        it then it is strongly suggested (especially for Siemens-S65 users) to use
