Installation directories
If you follow the manual, the files are installed into three directories independent of the architecture. The directory /opt/XSOXbigX takes the files which may be shared between machines of same architecture, the directory /etc/opt/XSOXbigX contains host specific files like license files, and the directory /var/opt/XSOXbigX contains output files like log files.
The following table shows all components of the software:
File | Usage |
---|---|
Installation directory /opt/XSOXbigX | |
bin/ | executable files |
bin/xbigx | shell script for executing … |
bin/_xbigx | … the real XbigX proxy program |
bin/glxPlus | shell script for starting OpenGL clients (option GLXplus) |
bin/uninstall | shell script for uninstalling |
share/ | architecture independent files |
share/license_agreement | license terms |
share/manual | manual in HTML format |
Installation directory /etc/opt/XSOXbigX | |
Installation directory /var/opt/XSOXbigX |
Before executing a program, please read the license terms and conditions in the included file
/opt/XSOXbigX/share/license_agreement
or the appropriate license file.
If you choose to install the files into other directories, you have to adjust the environment variables $XBIGX_HOME, $XBIGX_ETC, and $XBIGX_VAR in all shell scripts correspondingly.
