Linux Installation Help The MouseAtlas software has been built using Mandrake Linux 9.1. It has been tested on Mandrake and RedHat Linux distributions, and should work on other Linux platforms as well. You may to need to know the "root" password for some tasks. If you are not sure how to do any of the following tasks, ask your local systems administrator or contact EMAGE. Installing Third Party Software Installing MouseAtlas Software
Installing MouseAtlas Software The Mouse Atlas software is in the Linux directory on the CD-ROM. It can also be downloaded as a
compressed tar file from To execute the installation script:- 1. Navigate to the Linux directory on the CD. The full path may be different on different systems but will be something like /mnt/cdrom/Linux 2. Execute the script. At the prompt type ./setupMA.ksh You will need to have appropriate permission to create directories. If necessary, execute the script as "root". A successful installation will look like the example screen shot below.
The path to the MouseAtlas software needs to be set for the PATH variable. For example, if the path is the default /opt/MouseAtlas/bin:- For sh, ksh, bash shell add these lines to your .profile file PATH=($PATH:/opt/MouseAtlas/bin) export $PATH For csh add this line to your .cshrc file. set path = ($path /opt/MouseAtlas/bin) For tcsh add the same line to your .tcshrc file. set path = ($path /opt/MouseAtlas/bin) Remember to restart any terminal sessions to pick up the new path.
If the above steps have been carried out successfully, you will now be able to start the software from the command line. The "MAPaint" program should start like the example screen shot below.
