Installing OpenLP on Linux
|
|
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Setting up OpenLP varies by distribution. We have included documentation on
|
|
|
|
popular distributions or distributions that have OpenLP available from their
|
|
|
|
package managers. It should be possible to get OpenLP running on
|
|
|
|
nearly any Linux distribution.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ubuntu
|
2012-06-11 20:50:13 +00:00
|
|
|
----------------
|
2012-06-11 10:18:14 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Installation of OpenLP on Ubuntu can either be done through the Software Center
|
|
|
|
or the command line. Command line instructions will be included at the end of
|
|
|
|
this section on Ubuntu and its variants.
|
|
|
|
|
2012-06-12 23:47:23 +00:00
|
|
|
Ubuntu 12.04 or later
|
2012-06-11 20:50:13 +00:00
|
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you are using Ubuntu 12.10 or a more recent version then OpenLP is
|
2012-06-12 23:47:23 +00:00
|
|
|
included in the standard distribution. If you are using Ubuntu 12.04 then
|
|
|
|
OpenLP has been added to the backports packages and so is available
|
|
|
|
with the appropriate setting below.
|
2012-06-11 20:50:13 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Open up the software center by clicking on the :guilabel:`Software Center` icon
|
|
|
|
in the Launcher if you are using the Unity desktop, or if you are using an
|
|
|
|
older version of Ubuntu, or the Classic Desktop go to :menuselection:`Applications`
|
|
|
|
and select the Software Center from the bottom of the menu. You will need to
|
|
|
|
be the administrator of the system to install OpenLP and will be asked for the
|
|
|
|
administrator password several times through this process.
|
|
|
|
|
2012-06-12 23:47:23 +00:00
|
|
|
If using Ubuntu 12.04 then when you have the Software Center running you need to
|
|
|
|
turn on support for backports. From the menu choose Edit/Software Sources and
|
|
|
|
then the "Updates" tab. Now make sure that "Unsupported Updates
|
2012-06-13 10:01:35 +00:00
|
|
|
(precise-backports) is ticked. Then click :guilabel:`close`.

|
|
|
|
|
2012-06-12 23:47:23 +00:00
|
|
|
Next in any of these versions simply search for OpenLP in the Software Center
|
|
|
|
and click :guilabel:`Install`.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You will see the install progress as OpenLP and the dependencies required for
|
|
|
|
it to run are downloaded.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can now run OpenLP by either searching for it in the *Dash*, or clicking on

In older versions of Ubuntu you will first need to add the

|
|
|
|
|
