# darthvader — downloads
|
||
|
||
Prebuilt packages for **darthvader**, the native desktop client for digital
|
||
voice (M17 / DMR / YSF / NXDN / D-STAR / P25, EchoLink, AllStar, SvxLink, APRS,
|
||
POCSAG) with DV3000 USB AMBE+2 support.
|
||
|
||
This repository contains **binaries only** — no source. Source lives in a
|
||
separate private repository; the published sources of the GPL components ship
|
||
with each package.

||
|
||
| Platform | Download |
|
||

|
||
| Checksums | [SHA256SUMS](https://git.sa7aux.se/bjorne/darthvader-dist/releases/download/v0.1.0-83e21492/SHA256SUMS) |
|
||
|
||
Every build is on the [**releases**](https://git.sa7aux.se/bjorne/darthvader-dist/releases) page. The links above
|
||
always point at the current release.
|
||
|
||
## Windows
|
||
|
||
| File | For |
|
||
|---|---|
|
||
| `…-win64.msi` | Normal install — Start menu + desktop shortcut, uninstall entry |
|
||
| `…-win64.zip` | No installer: unpack anywhere and run `bin\darthvader.exe` |
|
||
|
||
Windows 10/11 64-bit. Everything is bundled (Qt, codecs, LADSPA plugins);
|
||
nothing else needs installing.
|
||
|
||
Silent install:
|
||
|
||
```cmd
|
||
msiexec /i darthvader-<version>-win64.msi /qn
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Antivirus warnings
|
||
|
||
The packages are **not code-signed**, so SmartScreen warns on first run
|
||
(*More info* → *Run anyway*), and a few engines flag them on reputation alone
|
||
— Microsoft Defender on a real machine does not. Verify the SHA-256 against
|
||
`SHA256SUMS`; that is what the checksums are there for.
|
||
|
||
DV3000 / ThumbDV / DVstick sticks appear as COM ports through the FTDI VCP
|
||
driver and are detected automatically. If audio stutters, lower the port's
|
||
*Latency Timer* to 1–2 ms in Device Manager → Port Settings → Advanced.
|
||
|
||
## Debian / Ubuntu / Raspberry Pi OS
|
||
|
||
Install the `.deb` from the Downloads table above — trixie `amd64` today,
|
||
bookworm and `arm64` (Pi Zero 2 W and newer) to follow:
|
||
|
||
```sh
|
||
sudo apt install ./darthvader_0.1.0-2_amd64.deb
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Or wire in the apt repository once and get updates with `apt`:
|
||
|
||
```sh
|
||
curl -fsSL https://debrepo.sa7aux.se/setup.sh | sudo bash
|
||
sudo apt install darthvader
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Verifying downloads
|
||
|
||
Each release ships a `SHA256SUMS`:
|
||
|
||
```sh
|
||
sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
