Outdated documentation - hard to set up for a newcomer #8

It appears to me that the peachyprinter documentation needs a major update. First of all, the guide at http://instructions.peachyprinter.com/singlepage.html points the user to download and install this project, and consequently to ''Launch calibrate-main.py''. However, to my knowledge, such a file is nowhere in this project. This is confusing, and it prevents me to use the device.

Second, I tried to find the help in the referred forum, http://forum.peachyprinter.com/viewforum.php?f=29, but the page does not exist anymore.

Third, it would be useful to paste some example of installation instructions. I established that the installation procedure on Ubuntu Vivid is as such:

sudo apt-get install libstdc++6
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test 
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

sudo apt-get install mock python-serial python-protobuf libusb-dev python-pip python-virtualenv

./build_linux.sh 
sudo ./setup_linux.sh 
source venv/bin/activate
python test/test-all.py

Thank you in advance.
