Installation
Firstly,
add the the UQVislab apt repository public key to your system (
instructions here).
Now add
UQVislab to your list of download repositories by one of the following
methods -
1. manually create a file
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/uqvislab.list
with the following entries:
deb
http://www.vislab.uq.edu.au/debian jaunty/
deb-src
http://www.vislab.uq.edu.au/debian jaunty/
or 2. add those lines to your existing
/etc/apt/sources.list file
or 3. add those lines in the
Third
Party
Software
tab of the
Settings->Repositories
widget of
Synaptic
or 4. run this command in a shell:
sudo
wget http://www.vislab.uq.edu.au/debuntu/sources.list.d/jaunty.list -O
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/uqvislab.list
To complete the installation using
Synaptic,
open the Synaptic Package Manager and reload the package
information (use the
Reload
button, or select
Reload Package
Information from the
Edit
menu). Now
search for and
install the
accessgrid3.2
package (it will be found in the
AccessGrid section). A number
of prerequisite packages should also be automatically installed.
Alternatively, the installation may be completed from the command line,
with
apt-get, by running the
commands:
sudo
apt-get update
sudo apt-get install accessgrid3.2
Everything should be set to go now - run VenueClient
or VenueClient -d from a shell or run it from the
"Access Grid 3" entry in the main menu (assuming default Gnome desktop).
Issues
Access to the UQVislab apt repository
now supports signed downloads. Before installing anything, see the
instructions to import UQVislab public key.
Integration of
rat with the
Pulse Audio system can be problematic. A
potential
fix is available that may help.
Otherwise, no known issues. Please report any problems to the contact
email below
