Instructions for installing Pitivi, a nonlinear video editor in Python/Gtk on top of a Gstreamer engine
These instructions assume that you have available an XO that you can wipe clean with a new OS installation.
- (I'm not sure whether or not this first step is necessary. These steps led to success once!). Since I was starting with a secure XO (no developer key) I downloaded the 802 build, rebooted with the 4 game keys held, and the NAND and firmware were updated. Requested a developer key, and got it the next day. See http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Activation_and_Developer_Keys#Getting_a_developer_key_for_your_running_XO_laptop The firmware is the unknown. Did having the firmware at 2QE41 level contribute to my success?
- The FC11 OS image is not signed, so you will need to turn off the firmware security system see http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Activation_and_Developer_Keys#Disable_the_security_system
- Download the OS4.IMG and OS4.CRC files from http://dev.laptop.org/~smparrish/xo-1/builds/ onto a FAT or FAT32 formatted USB disk.
- At the boot prompt of an unlocked XO enter "copy-nand u:OS4.IMG". Wait.
- I powered the XO off just to make sure everything was starting at ground zero. (just entering "boot" at the prompt may work).
- Get the XO talking to the internet via your wifi access point, as usual.
- Execute the following:
su - yum -y install gtk2-libglade pitivi exit mkdir -p /home/olpc/.local/share
