Multimedia Bonus Disc development

[blurymind]

Now, I'm not sure where you keep your package list nowadays, but is Blender on it yet? Now there's a gem :-).

Here: http://www.vectorlinux.com/forum2/index.php?topic=4040.msg29363#msg29363

Blender is on it.

Anyone have any idea what's up with my lilypond compilation?

will wacom-tools be on it? Set to automatically add entries to xorg.con when the tabled is plugged,so one can start using it only after ctrl++alt+back ...like it is in ubuntu,mandriva and most common distros?
If so,you should also add expresskeys to enable media button support in tablets:
http://freshmeat.net/projects/wacomexpresskeys/

works great with gimp and blender

also,a must tool for any graphic designer/photographer is a image batch processing tool. Kde image menu or Phatch would do the trick.Phatch is using python and its imaging library.Kim is using imagemagick and kdelibs.

will wacom-tools be on it? Set to automatically add entries to xorg.con when the tabled is plugged,so one can start using it only after ctrl++alt+back ...like it is in ubuntu,mandriva and most common distros?

Possibly. I'm not so much of a guru at stuff like that but it may be setup that way in the future. One problem I have with doing that is that I don't have any tablets to test it on. I'd either need someone who has one to help me do it, or have people donate their old tablets to the cause. 

Also that might be a project for the devs to work on and integrate into VL itself.


BTW, here's my TeTeX build script. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, but in case anyone knows the solution, here it is:

Code:

#!/usr/bin/bash
# This script assumes it will be launched within "/NAME/VERSION/src" dir.
# With all sources in "src" Your Vector Linux .tlz package, slack-desc,
# and slack-required will be found in "VERSION" dir. The extraction and
# build will be in a temp dir created in "NAME" dir, and then removed on exit.
# Comment out last line to keep this dir intact.

Pay attention to the first paragraph in this link, it may be helpful. http://osdir.com/ml/gnu.lilypond.general/2003-08/msg00185.html

[Dweeberkitty]

I'm not sure what it means by not having a complete installation of teTex. I tried the second part about running texconfig but I get errors. Arrrggh! I really don't have a clue what I'm doing here. No idea what I could be doing wrong.

EDIT: I found a slackbuild for tetex. I'll try that and see what happens.

[blurymind]

hi, i am willing to test it. Just have it installed.
wacom-tools is a must for this kind of distro
expresskeys is very easy to compile and package.I'd do it myself if i had a free computer atm.

[Dweeberkitty]

Whooohooo! I finally got a working teTeX package built. I would have never figured it out myself without that build script. With like a bazillion patches and things, it got pretty involved. Thank you Patrick Volkerding! Now lilypond compiles with teTeX up until this error:

Arrrggh! They say on their site that building lilypond is an involved process, but man! Lilypond is a nice typesetter an all, but is it really worth all this when you can just download their installer.sh thing? Whatever, I've come this far, won't stop now.

Blurymind, I'll see what I can do as soon as I get these other packages done.

[exeterdad]

That's awesome you got Tetex worked out.  Surely if Lilypond puked, others would as well.  Nice job.  Why not install the needed font, build lilypond, and then include the font (with dir tree) in your package? 

[Dweeberkitty]

Would do that, but I'm not so much familiar with fonts. Still looking for it.

[GrannyGeek]

I didn't understand the error message about
Cannot open /usr/share/fonts/TTF/DejaVuSansBold.pfb

Well, of course! There is no such font as DejaVuSansBold.pfb because a pfb font is Type 1 and DejaVuSansBold comes in TrueType. To get a Type 1 font for DejaVuSansBold, you'd have to convert it. Maybe that's what the fontforge stuff is about. Fontforge can convert between TrueType and Type 1. So you'd need fontforge on the system. I used to have it but haven't installed it on the 5.9 release candidates I'm now using. The Century Schoolbook OTF would be an OpenType font. I don't know if OpenType fonts come with any Linux distros; they don't come with VectorLinux, to my knowledge.

I don't know if this helps.

[Dweeberkitty]

GrannyGeek, you were somewhat helpful. I found ttf2pt1 which allowed me to convert the appropriate .ttf fonts into .pfb. This took care of those errors. Now I get an error about mftrace!  Now it's really making me mad.

[Dweeberkitty]

This is the error more specifically:

Looks like I need to find t1asm. *sigh*

EDIT: This was probably a stupid mistake on my part. I forgot to package t1utils. I'll do that and see how it likes it.

[Dweeberkitty]

Yeaaaah! I finally got lilypond to compile with no errors.  When I try to run it however..... "lily.scm not found" Noooo!

[exeterdad]

*Smacks head on keyboard*  You poor man! 

[easuter]

Dweeberkitty, if you can't get around that problem then maybe posting a message on the lilypond mailing list may give you some answers:

http://lilypond.org/web/about/

[rbistolfi]

Apparently that is part of the lilypond init files placed in the scm directory. You can configure the lilypond expressions from there. I wonder why the built didn't placed some default scm files there.
