#PRECISE PUPPY DOWNLOAD OPENOFFICE INSTALL#

I’ve added checkinstall, as it is a useful tool to install packages compiled from source in Ubuntu. The first command will install some basic packages that you need to compile and install applications from source. To do so, open a terminal and enter the following command: sudo aptitude install build-essential pkg-config checkinstall First, you’ll need to make sure you have installed the proper dependencies that are needed to compile and run Openbox. Though it is much easier to install the Openbox version that is in the repositories (3.4.6 in Hardy), the latest version has plenty of features that make it worth it to do it the (slightly) harder way.Ĭompiling from source is not as hard as it looks, though. The latest version of Openbox (3.4.7) is not in the Ubuntu repositories. A lot of their instructions, guidelines and ideas are incorporated into this guide. Special thanks also to those that have helped me discover Openbox and offered assistance when problems arose: fuscia, K.Mandla, moore.bryan, bonzodog, ynnhoj, and raublekick (all from the Ubuntuforums), and the folks on the IRC #openbox channel. Raublekick’s How-to on the Ubuntuforums (now outdated).The “random openbox chatter” thread on the Ubuntuforums.Most of the information presented here is drawn from other sources. If you’ve never used Openbox before and are wondering what it can look like, behold some of my screenshots here. There is nothing very special about them (other than that they work for me), but I have learned a lot and gathered many ideas from looking at the configuration files of other users perhaps you will too. You can access the rc.xml file here, and the menu.xml file here. In the end, they both accomplish the same thing.įor those who may find it useful, I have uploaded my own Openbox configuration files.

I have tried to give guidelines for doing things both from the command line and a graphical interface (using file managers, text editors, etc.). Many applications are much more configurable than they initially appear to be! Explore and settle on the configuration that suits you best. If an application has a website, I have linked to it. The websites of the applications often give helpful guides as well.

#PRECISE PUPPY DOWNLOAD OPENOFFICE MANUAL#

I recommend reading the manual pages of whatever application you are interested in (open a terminal and type ‘ man nameoftheapplication‘ press ‘q’ to exit) as you’ll find plenty more options to try out. I mention a lot of applications in the following pages, and often mention some configuration options. By doing less, Openbox thus gives you more control, and the option to turn your desktop environment into something that is exactly what you like it to be (or at least close). You can pick and choose whatever you like best. It doesn’t come with panels or desktop configuration tools, but, as you will see, there are plenty of applications available that accomplish such tasks very well. Rather than being a flaw, Openbox’ minimalism is actually its strength. This often intimidates new users, who may find Openbox too spartan or simplistic.

#PRECISE PUPPY DOWNLOAD OPENOFFICE WINDOWS#

Openbox is very minimalistic and does little more than manage the windows (but does that extremely well!). You can use both Gtk (Gnome) and Qt (KDE) applications in Openbox and I have tried to give both equal attention, though there are generally more solutions using Gtk apps than Qt apps.

For help how to use Openbox in one of these desktop environments, have a look at the Openbox website. This guide is meant for a stand-alone Openbox set-up. You can use Openbox on its own, or as a window manager in Gnome, KDE or Xfce. (If you need help with a minimal install of Ubuntu, have a look here and here) I only cover how to set up, configure and use Openbox, and assume you already have Ubuntu up and running, either in a command line install, a normal Ubuntu install, or something in between. This guide is not meant to help you set up a minimal install of Ubuntu with Openbox, though it might be useful for anyone attempting to do that.
