*Applications [#zca7b079]
#br
**Adobe Flash player [#zc6fa045]
-download the latest flashplayer 64 bit version from adobe.com
-extract the downloaded file (libflashplayer.so is generated)
$ mv libflashplayer.so /home/yusuke/.flashplayer
$ ln -s /home/yusuke/.flashplayer/libflashplayer.so /home/yusuke/.mozilla/plugins
**Intel Fortran Compiler (version 12.0 update 3) [#x774170a]
-download the latest Intel fortran composer at http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/non-commercial-software-download/
-serial number needed for the installation is sent from intel.
-untar the tar file
-make yourself root to install
$ su
$ sh ./install.sh
- If gcc++ is missing, the installer complains. Install it a priori.
- after installation, edit .cshrc appropriately. The following is an example.
if (`uname -m` == x86_64) then
set IFC_ROOT = /opt/intel/fc11.3.174
else
set IFC_ROOT = /opt/intel/fc111
endif
#setenv KMP_DUPLICATE_LIB_OK TRUE
setenv PATH $IFC_ROOT/bin:$PATH
setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH $IFC_ROOT/lib
setenv MANPATH $IFC_ROOT/man:$MANPATH
#
source $IFC_ROOT/bin/compilervars.csh intel64
setenv INCLUDE $IFC_ROOT/mkl/include:$INCLUDE
setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH $IFC_ROOT/mkl/lib/intel64:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
**Skype [#x309a7d8]
-Skype is still a 32-bit application, so you must include 32-bit library. To do so, assign 32-bit Mandriva repository:
urpmi.addmedia tmp_Main_32_release ftp://ftp.proxad.fr/mirrors/ftp.mandriva.com/MandrivaLinux/official/2010.1/i586/media/main/release
urpmi.addmedia tmp_Main_32_updates ftp://ftp.proxad.fr/mirrors/ftp.mandriva.com/MandrivaLinux/official/2010.1/i586/media/main/updates
urpmi.addmedia tmp_MIB_Basic_64 http://mib.pianetalinux.org/MIB/2010.1/64/basic
- then install Skype
urpmi skype --allow-suggest --auto --force
- finally, clean up the mounted repositories.
urpmi.removemedia tmp_Main_32_release
urpmi.removemedia tmp_Main_32_updates
urpmi.removemedia tmp_MIB_Basic_64
**ptetex3 (Latex with Japanese fonts) [#ue4d7bac]
-Go to the ptetex3 official website at
http://tutimura.ath.cx/~nob/tex/ptetex.html
http://tutimura.ath.cx/ptetex/?FrontPage
and download the latest ptetex3 (ptetex3-20090610.tar.gz as of May 6, 2011), tetex-src-3.0.tar.gz, and tetex-texmf-3.0po.tar.gz. But if you have installed tetex with Mandriva Control Center properly, the last two files may not be requisite.
-Extract tarball(s) such that: tar xzvf ptetex3-20090610.tar.gz
-Duplicate my_option.sample to my_option: cp -p my_option.sample my_option. For now I do not edit my_option file.
-Since "getline" conflicts with the one in stdio.h, make yourself root and edit
vi /usr/include/stdio.h
and comment out the following lines temporarily:
/*
extern _IO_ssize_t getline (char **__restrict __lineptr,
size_t *__restrict __n,
FILE *__restrict __stream) __wur;
*/
then make yourself back to your username, and submit the make command:
$ su
$ make install
During "make", it may complain that
warning: FT_OpenType_Validate is disabled.
Replace FreeType2 with "otvalid" enabled version.
while you could ignore it because this is for text layout aligning vertically which is not used significantly.
-Revert back stdio.h file to its original shape.
-Edit your .cshrc file such that
# ptetex3 (Japanese) setting
setenv PATH /usr/local/teTeX/bin:$PATH
alias platex "platex -kanji=utf8"
alias ptex "platex -kanji=utf8"
alias ptexsjis "platex -kanji=sjis"
alias ptexeuc "platex -kanji=euc"
-Enjoy ptetex3 by using "platex" or "ptex". Ghostscript does not work properly, so you have to compromise.
-DVI ==> PDF conversion is done with "dvipdfmx". xdiv works with Japanese fonts.
**NX Client (NoMachine version) [#j2a1aede]
-Go to http://www.nomachine.com/
--Go to "Download" section, then get x86_64 Linux RPM version of nxclient
-Make yourself "root" in the directory where you have the rpm file.
$ su
$ rpm -i nxclient-3.5.0-5.x86_64.rpm
-Execute nxclient
--In connection wizard, use localhost and port = 8888 if you are connecting your nx server through ssh tunnel, otherwise specify the hostname and port = 22. A DSA key must be provided. The file is for example located at ~/.ssh/dsa_id (depending on where you retrieve the key file).
**mencoder [#g0572121]
-Mencoder may complain that libjpeg.so.62 is missing.
-If you encounter this issue, in Konsole (or any terminals), make yourself root
$ su
$ cd /usr/lib64
$ ln -s libjpeg.so.8.0.1 libjpeg.so.62
Then mencoder should work.
