Please consult the Issues section below before proceeding with installation!

Firstly, add the the UQVislab apt repository public key to your system (instructions here).

or 2. add those lines to your existing /etc/apt/sources.list file

or 4. run this command in a shell:

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:

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).

Access to the UQVislab apt repository now supports signed downloads. Before installing anything, see the instructions to import UQVislab public key.
