Revisió del 08:03, 31 jul 2012
The SAPO system history
SAPO is a set of powerful applications oriented to the CARTA 's implementation (transform artistic creation to technical drawing), designs blond curtains, lace , etc. ... These products are manufactured by the German company Karl Mayer 's textile machinery or in ancient looms leavers.
The SAPO system was originally created for HP's workstations with HP-UX operating system, because they were more powerful than any PC on the market. The personal computing progress make PC getting faster and cheaper, and became more interesting to migrate the code to the new and primitive Linux running on personal computers.
We choose Redhat distribution because was free and had a lot of similarities with directories and config files structure with HP-UX. Redhat became a commercial product, so we move to another open source alternative to maintain and improve the stability and security. This distribution isCentOS, which did not have the latest versions of software that other distributions derived from Redhat have like Fedora, but instead have a better stability .
We kept the maximum appearance with the idea to avoid user adaptation to different environments that haven't used. For this reason, we install a linux compatible HP-UX workstations desktop called CDE, but now we are working to migrate SAPO system to any modern desktops integrated with current Linux versions like Gnome, or KDE, to improve the user experience and comfort as much as possible without losing security and stability.
SAPO system installation's notes
- Currently is needed to install SAPO on PCs, laptops and desktops, where you can install a CentOS Linux operating system. The recommended version up to date is CentOS 5.x, because the old CDE desktop is incompatible with the latest version (CentOS 6 when writing this manual).
- During the operating system installation, hard drive's data could be erased so you should have a backup of your existing user data.
- The setup editor used in this manual is vi. This file editor is very powerful, but not recommended if you don't have previous experience. In this case, there are other editors more intuitive like nano'.
- Remember that edit config files is critical and extremely delicate operation that can make the system won't boot properly.
- A new system installation have 4 stages:
- Installing the Linux operating system 'CentOS 5.x'.
- Installing the CDE desktop.
- Installing the SAPO design system.
- Installing additional applications.
Installation
Linux Operating System
Linux CentOS 5.x operating system installation
The installation Iso images can be downloaded from the CentOS's official website:
http://mirror.centos.org/centos/5/isos/i386 /
- The 32-bit Linux version (i386) ensures compatibility with SAPO system.
- This manual explains the graphical installation mode.
- Boot with the CentOS 5.x installation CD-ROM.
- If you boot from the netinstall CD_ROM version Will be necessary an internet connection available and a few preliminary steps make with a wizard running in text mode:
- If the CD-ROM isn't the netinstall version, go to step:Start the installation wizard.
- Language selection This language will be used during installation, but also determine the default options such as language, keyboard, time zone, etc..
- keyboard selection
- Installation Method
- This specifies how to access the installation files.
- network configuration For default network configuration use the DHCP (automatic) option. However, Network parameters can be manually configured here but this setting is only used to access the installer's files and will be necesary to configure the final network during the setup process.
- Location of installation files
- Completing the netinstall process Finally, it will download the installation wizard will start automatically
- This process can take about 5 minutes.
- Start installation wizard.
- Language selection.
- This screen does not appear if the language has been selected.
- keyboard selection.
- This screen does not appear if the keyboard has been selected.
- installation type selection.
- This screen only displays if any CentOS operating system is installed.
- disk partitions.
- Partition Manager
- Using LVM partitions is not recommended, to avoid alocating the information betwen different physical disks.
- To create a partition use the New button.
- If you will like to edit an existing partition, Select it first and then use the Editbutton
- Choose size, type and where to mount the partitions.
- Installing the GRUB boot loader (GRUB boot loader). Leave the values displayed by default.
- Network setup For default network configuration use the DHCP (automatic) option. However, network parameters can be manually configured here.
- Time Settings.
- The UTC indicates that the computer's internal clock is synchronized with the time Greenwich Mean Time
- Creating the root 's password'.
- The root user is the system administrator and have full access privileges. is very important to remember this password.
- Selection packages to install. Select Desktop - Gnome, this includes a set of basic desktop applications.
- Installing Packages. The system will start installing the selected packages. When finish, restart the computer.
- This may take about 30 minutes and is completely automatic.
- The first boot time setup wizard screen will appear.
- Initial firewall setup. To allow the CADT 's technical assistance team having access to your computer over Internet, the firewall must accept access through the SSH port (22) .
- SELinux configuration.
- SELinux is an advanced system protection, but requires extensive configuration, so it is recommended to disable it.
- Setting the date and time.
- Creating 'CADT' user.
- Configuring the sound card.
- additional CDs.
- when the wizard is finished, if SELinux has been disabled as recommended, the computer will reboot. When the login screen appears, login with username 'CADT' and password 'boira1'.
To get the official version from the CentOS 's webpage, select HTTP.
Parameters to get the official version. Site Name: mirror.centos.org Directory of files: /centos-5/5.8/os/i386
This language will be used during installation, but also will be installed by default in the operating system and determine the default options (keyboard, time zone, etc).
| The management of partitions on a disk can cause the loss of data. |
Select manual partitioning (create custom layout) whether if it is a new installation or a reinstallation where already have an existing partition table. Manual partitioning will have the absolute control over the entire process.

- X Server programs (Xorg) have changed their location on the different CentOS versions of the Linux operating system.
- Backup
- Edit Xservers
- Change line
- Save and exit
- Correct the CDE directory where will find the local X server's files.
- CDE desktop install a own X server structure, this structure is incompatible with current Xorg, so you have to setup where is the actual X server location in the system.
- Change to the folder /usr/X11R6/lib

The CDE desktop create a directory extructure in /etc/dt, this is a mirror of /usr/dt where are the default settings.
Before editing any configuration file of CDE, this must be copied into the appropriate directory in /etc/dt and then modify it there.
[Root@CentOS5 config] # cp /usr/dt/config/Xservers. [enter] |
Xservers is a critical file and make a mistake during the modification may cause the system doesn't boot properly. It is recommended to backup it.
Root@CentOS5 config] # cp Xservers Xservers_old [enter] |
[Root@CentOS5 config] # vi Xservers [enter] |

: 0 Local local_uid @ tt1 root/usr/bin/ X: 0 |
This change makes that a reinstall of CDE desktop would overwrite the original files for the Xorg server so it is advisable to undo this operation prior to any reinstall of the desktop.
