Linux Remote Control
Soooooo I'm on Linux Mint 10 on my netbook for developement purposes at school, and I'm having quite some problems installing RC.
First, I've switched to LM only a few days ago, so I'm not really used to this environment. Here is what I did: Downloaded rc.gz on the website --> sudo gunzip rc.tgz It gave me rc.tar, I then extracted files from rc.tar and did: sudo apt-get install rc (which was the folder I extracted). It told me everything installed fine, but then I cannot find remote control anywhere on Linux. Did I do anything wrong? Any tips on how to install remote control? I'm such noob with linux :D |
Edit2: you have to unziping the folder and poof u got RC...
place it w/e u want; i placed it in /.graal/rc/ Edit1: "tgz" is a "zip" file Edir3: "sudo" is just a command to get root access, such as "run as administrator", it should only be used when doing things that requires rights that a normal user don't get to have, such as if ur going to edit/add/remove something outside of '/home/' lol i totally busted my post w/ edits :cool: |
Ya I know what sudo is, I just do it all the time. Nothing wrong with that right?
The thing is that there is nothing I can run in the RC folder, so how unzipping it in the graal folder will help? I'll try it soon anyway, got exams right now :D |

moving it wouldnt do much difference, since all images for rc is in that folder :) doesn't have to be in graal folder, that's just where i have it. |
Okay but how do I run the folder I extracted? I marked it as an executable (allow to run blabla... in properties) but I don't know what to do next. =(

For example on Ubuntu I had to install: libgtksourceview1.0-0 for RC to work. You also might want to check this page: http://wiki.graal.net/index.php/Crea..._Control/Linux Edit: Quote:

yeah, i thought about the lib error too, but i was unsure if there was a post or something about it, so i took the safe side and asked him to do that instead of just saying "this is your error, heres how u fix it" edit: i posted 2 mins before thought >:0! |

Thanks guys everything works fine, I followed all instructions from the wiki page. Now I only need to fix my IP haha.
Next time I think I'll look at the wiki first, I didn't know there were such articles about Linux on it. Thanks again! |

I would have linux, but my laptop can't hold more than about....3 gb. Yeah, it's pretty sad.

Also, most of Linux distros are lightweight (700MB-ish iso, 1GB-ish installed) if you're talking about RAM, then it's more than enough I run it fine on a netbook, why would it suck on a laptop??? |
