Revision as of 22:15, 15 February 2011

To Do

  • yum inst. linux-wacom .o0(please, please, please work?)
  • Install olpc.icc, then figure out what's the color correction system
  • Notes to document:
    1. there's a menu-related panel thingie package that'll prevent menubars for appearing at all
    2. Desktop settings seem to reset after a logout/restart/shutdown. Understandable (consistency), but an annoyance.
  • VNC and/or SSH

Done

  • yum install "gedit*plugin*" installs texlive as dep (∑75MB).
    • Could use TeXLive 2010 install (from ISO).

VM

512MB is a must for any GNOME-work.

fonts

  • liberation-{sans,serif,mono}, sil-gentium-fonts
  • FixedSys Excel. (PR fonts are fine, too)
    sudo cp whatever to /usr/share/fonts
    108 DPI for GNOME is just about right

Goog Chrome

Ugh, but it's leaner than FiFox

  • requires LSB≥3.2
    1. yum install redhat-lsb
      gives that @#$%ing "out of space" error (not with a 16GB SD you aren't!!!!)
    2. console: -> /sbin/init 3 ... yum install redhat-lsb
      ditto >_<
    3. #ed "/var" mounts; restart
    4. Gnome: yum install redhat-lsb
      Works! Dependencies: m4 make patch pax
  • Grab Goog's rpm (where's the SRPM you "let's not be evil" b*****ds?!)
  • rpm -ivh g...rpm OK
    As sluggish as FiFox, as alien as M$Office 12

Warning: Geo.Loc., D/L Loc., privacy settings, lame "oops" messages when there's a Flashy page (y'shouldda asked, Goo... y'shouldda asked first.)

TilEm.

This process, application, or procedure involves a ROM image.
ROMs are subject to copyright. If you do not own the ROM, then you are not entitled to the ROM image. Do not contact me about ROMs.

Most (all?) require ROMs; a CPU-hog (96% CPU according to top)

  • vti's ok under Wine, but why Wine it?
  • Nothing in yum repos for F11...
    • TilEm needs GTK+ (assumed installed) and a trifecta (./configure && make && sudo make install)...

Note: tilem is a lot of trackpad and clicking. Very annoying, but far more useable than MetaFont's math system or GNUPlotz.

    1. yum install gcc
      prob. need m4/make/patch/autoconf/automake/etc. - see LSB
      • deps found: glibc-{devel,headers} kernel-headers {,cloog-}ppl # ¿was ist das?
    2. yum install auto{conf,make}
      • no deps shown
    3. wget & unpack tar.bz2 (pity there's no ln -S to latest)
    4. ./configure chokes: GTK+ may be installed, but not its devils-devels
      • yum's kvetching about "no space on device" again... >_< restart
        Oh, great: shutdown -r now -> command not found... just my luck. :-P
    5. yum install gtk+-devel (what a contradictory package name)...
      • deps galore: {glib,xorg-x11-proto,lib{ICE,SM,X{11,au,dmcp,ext,i,t},xcb}}-devel
    6. ./configure --without-ticables:
      • requires GTK+ ≥2.4.0, installed 1.2.10 instead (d'oh!)
    7. yum install gtk2-devel (what a non-plussed package name)...
      • Even more deps than GTK+... let's just trudge on, shall we?
    8. ./configure --without-ticables already!!
      • Yes! :-D
    9. make
      YES!
    10. sudo make installYES!!
    11. Copy over roms (gottta write the ROM snippet) to ~/.TilEm
    12. tilem... NO: it got installed to /usr/local/bin, and $PATH doesn't go there.
      • Thought of editing $PATH but there's no .bash{rc,_profile} or .profile in ~... I'll just append it for the time being.
    13. tilem... ¡GOOOOOL!
      yeah, there's something wrong with my '86 ROM, but that's a config problem, not a compile problem.Won't read saved memory files from other platforms

Gnome Screenshot

  • yum install gnome-utils (deps. libgtop2)
    I wonder if I can change the keystroke for snapshotting to "frame" (and alt-tab to the key next to it?)Yep.

Doing

Kile

  • yum shows 82MB in deps, but that doesn't count deps installed from gedit's latex plugin.
