Hi guys,<br><br>I've tried to install Adobe Air on OLPC. With success! Here is the procedure to do that :<br><br><br># log as root<br>su -l<br><br># install required packages<br>yum install gtk2-devel libxml2-devel rpm-devel rpm-build nss nss-devel<br>
<br># it ignores TMPDIR so enlarge /tmp doing<br>mount -o remount,size=30% /tmp<br><br># get adobe air binaries<br>wget <a href="http://airdownload.adobe.com/air/lin/download/1.5/AdobeAIRInstaller.bin">http://airdownload.adobe.com/air/lin/download/1.5/AdobeAIRInstaller.bin</a><br>
<br># makes adobe air installer executable<br>chmod 777 AdobeAIRInstaller.bin<br><br># run adobe air installer<br>./AdobeAIRInstaller.bin<br><br> # check that you have adobe-certs and adobeair installed<br>rpm -qa adobe*<br>
<br># Then you can test that by installing an Adobe Air application. To do that, we need to run .air file by this command line :<br>/usr/bin/Adobe\ AIR\ Application\ Installer <FULL path to .air file><br><br># By default, Air application are put in the /opt folder<br>
cd /opt<br><br># We juste have to run binary file stores in the /bin folder. (Make sure that the binary is executable)<br>./bin/MyAirApp<br><br><br>Then, you can transform your Air App as an olpc activity. The python command line allows you to run the binary :<br>
os.system('<Path to air app>')<br><br>cheers,<br>Thomas<br>
