  7. First things first • To get an xterm on the pad: • Press <crtl> <shift> 1 • To start the ssh server: • Type service ssh start • Now you can connect from your Mac. • To save some memory you can disable the pepper desktop • Service pepper stop • Don’t forget to start it again :-)

  11. X11 & GTK • The pepperpad has both. • But the location is different: • /opt/fdo - X11 • /opt/gtk - gtk • Some additional RPMs are in /opt/pup • Install also the xorg-devel-7.0-6 package • To configure a program use: • ./configure --with-x-includes=/opt/fdo/include \ • --with-x-libraries=/opt/fdo/lib

  12. Pepperpad & samba • Samba is pre installed. • Just add yourself as a user and start the server: • /etc/init.d/samba start • On the Mac desktop enter <apple>-k • In the dialog box enter smb://<ip-number> • The Mac will open a finder window of your pepperpad.

  13. Some useful sites • http://www.chuma.org/pepperpad/ • Look at the pre-build RPMs. • A file manager • VNC viewer • http://www.pepper.com/forums/index.php • Lots of information
