Some hints on using the LiveDVD The default user is cascadoss (no password). For system administration tasks $su root works without password as well. This LiveDVD is based on the Fedora 8 Linux distribution, see the related documentation in `/usr/local/share/doc/CASCADOSS_2.0-LiveDVD-doc /usr/local/share/doc/Fedora-doc /usr/local/share/doc/GIS-doc` The directory `/usr/local/share/GIS-data` contains various demo datasets. The attribute "Live" means that using some "Linux magic" the LiveDVD seems to be a full-fledged system. With appropriate rights you (the cascadoss user) can create/copy/remove files or directories, the root user can even upgrade or remove software packages and data etc. All files and directories on the DVD can be located by the locate command, see `$man locate $locate bash.1 /usr/share/man/man1/bash.1.gz /usr/share/man/pl/man1/bash.1.gz $locate bin/kghos /usr/bin/kghostview` If some application cannot be found in the menu system, we can try another way, eg. `$which thuban /usr/bin/thuban $locate bin/thuban /usr/bin/thuban $locate -i geoserver\|grep bin /usr/local/geoserver/bin /usr/local/geoserver/bin/shutdown.sh /usr/local/geoserver/bin/startup.sh /usr/local/sbin/geoserver_shutdown /usr/local/sbin/geoserver_startup` The Fedora distribution uses the rpm package manager: `$man rpm` The file `/var/log/rpmpkgs`contains the list of the installed rpm packages `$ grep firefox /var/log/rpmpkgs firefox-3.0.3-1.fc8.remi.i386.rpm` To query some information about an installed package you should type in only the first part of the package name: `$ rpm -qi Thuban-1.2.1 Name : Thuban Relocations: /usr Version : 1.2.1 Vendor: (none) Release : 1.vj Build Date: 2008. okt. 28., kedd, 11.52.14 CET Install Date: 2008. okt. 28., kedd, 11.53.20 CET Build Host : viragh.inf.u-szeged.hu/ Group : Applications/Productivity Source RPM : Thuban-1.2.1-1.vj.src.rpm/ Size : 4359570 License: GPL Signature : (none) URL : http://thuban.intevation.de/ Summary : Geographic data viewer Description : Thuban is a viewer for geographic data written in Python` Which package contains a given file/directory? `$ rpm -qif /usr/bin/thuban Name : Thuban Relocations: /usr Version : 1.2.1 Vendor: (none) Release : 1.vj Build Date: 2008. okt. 28., kedd, 11.52.14 CET Install Date: 2008. okt. 28., kedd, 11.53.20 CET Build Host : viragh.inf.u-szeged.hu/ Group : Applications/Productivity Source RPM : Thuban-1.2.1-1.vj.src.rpm/ Size : 4359570 License: GPL Signature : (none) URL : http://thuban.intevation.de/ Summary : Geographic data viewer Description : Thuban is a viewer for geographic data written in Python` To query the full content of an installed package: $rpm -qil Thuban-1.2.1 Name : Thuban Relocations: /usr Version : 1.2.1 Vendor: (none) Release : 1.vj Build Date: 2008. okt. 28., kedd, 11.52.14 CET Install Date: 2008. okt. 28., kedd, 11.53.20 CET Build Host : viragh.inf.u-szeged.hu/ Group : Applications/Productivity Source RPM : Thuban-1.2.1-1.vj.src.rpm/ Size : 4359570 License: GPL Signature : (none) URL : http://thuban.intevation.de/ Summary : Geographic data viewer Description : Thuban is a viewer for geographic data written in Python /usr/bin/thuban /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/thubaninit.py /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/thubaninit.pyc /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/thubaninit.pyo /usr/lib/thuban/Extensions/_init_.py /usr/lib/thuban/Extensions/_init_.pyc .............. /usr/lib/thuban/thuban.pyo /usr/share/doc/Thuban-1.2.1 /usr/share/doc/Thuban-1.2.1/COPYING /usr/share/doc/Thuban-1.2.1/COPYING.pyshapelib /usr/share/doc/Thuban-1.2.1/LICENSE.pyprojection /usr/share/doc/Thuban-1.2.1/README /usr/share/doc/Thuban-1.2.1/README.pyshapelib You can use the more advanced "yum" package manager, or one of the graphical interfaces smart, kyum, yumex to query, remove and install packages during a session.
