F16: Things Installed Later

Amazingly, there are no alternative ``themes'' installed for GNOME 3. A helpful web page was http://fedoraunity.org/Members/bookwar/gnome-3-tips.

yum install gnome-shell-extensions-user-theme ;; amazing not installed by default!
yum install gnome-tweak-tool ;; set stuff
yum install projectM-jack ;; to try out some visualization plugins
# Set up sudoers, following 
# http://www.mjmwired.net/resources/mjm-fedora-fc6.html#sudo
# cd /etc
# chmod +w sudoers
# echo 'jos ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:ALL' >> /etc/sudoers
# chmod -w sudoers
yum install csound ;; checking out some patches
yum install scons
# follow directions for Fedora installation of openframeworks:
    cd <openframeworks-sourcedir>/scripts/linux/fedora/
    sh install_codeblocks_svn.sh ;; (trouble)
    ./install_dependencies.sh ;; (trouble)
    yum install openal-soft-devel.x86_64
    sh install_codeblocks_svn.sh 
    ./install_dependencies.sh
    yum install freeglut-devel.x86_64
    ./install_dependencies.sh
    /sbin/ldconfig
# That seemed to do it for building the library - then for the examples:
yum install glew-devel
yum install freeimage-devel
# Then add '-lz' to Projects / <app> / build config / config.make / USER_LIBS
# in codeblocks. Several examples won't build until you do this.
# install baudline tarball from www.baudline.com [spectrum analysis]
yum install dconf-editor ;; to restore desktop right-click and icons
  ;; alt+f2 dconf-editor
  ;; Navigate to org / gnome / desktop / Background
  ;;  Enable "Show-Desktop-Icons" 
echo '/usr/bin/jackd -P1 -dalsa -dhw:UA-25EX -r48000 -p1024 -n2 -P'>!~/.jackdrc
# override pulseaudio with jack following procedure at
#    http://fedoraforum.org/forum/showthread.php?t=276955
# Also set system sound output to Jack sink
yum install eclipse
# install android development tarballs
# ADT Plugin installation failed in eclipse
# Follow http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/HOWTO_Setup_Android_Development
# Still failed - after some thrashing, non-NDK installation worked.
# (It was tried and failed before, so this makes no sense - server dropout?)
# Since I have a 64-bit system: yum install glibc.i686 glibc-devel.i686 libstdc++.i686 zlib-devel.i686 ncurses-devel.i686 libX11-devel.i686 libXrender.i686 libXrandr.i686
git clone git://git.code.sf.net/p/libmodsynth/git libmodsynth ;; read about it
ln -s /usr/bin/moc-qt4 /usr/bin/moc ;; so libmodsynth would compile
git clone https://github.com/vibou/vibou.gTile.git gnome-gTile ;; prefer tiled windows
  ;; Switch to "On" at https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/28/gtile/
  ;; USAGE: Alt-F2 gTile
yum install gnome-shell-extension* ;; wish I had found this earlier
yum install gnome-shell-theme*
  ;; http://www.if-not-true-then-false.com/2012/gnome-shell-tweaking-extensions-themes-on-fedora/
ALT F2 r ;; restart GNOME Shell to get extensions
;; Get all current Gnome Shell extensions settings:
gsettings list-recursively |grep "org.gnome.shell.extensions" 
;; syntax for settings:
gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.[name] [key] [value]
;; example:
gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.dock size 60
;; opening a .midi file with Movie Player resulted in the installation of
;; opencv, wildmidi-libs, fluid-soundfont-lite-patches, libtimidity, openni, gmyth, tinyxml
;; oddly, it tried to install them as me, not root (but then failed)
;; yum install on the whole list said all were installed
;; Next attempt to open a MIDI file in Movie Player worked!
git clone https://github.com/pantherb/setBfree.git ;; cool organ synth!
yum install tcl-devel tk-devel ;; for setBfree
yum install zita-convolver-devel ;; for setBfree
yum install a2jmidid ;; so setBfree JACK MIDI can be driven from ALSA midi
                     ;; (run a2jmidi_bridge or a2jmidid)
gnome-session-properties ;; Options / Automatically restore session
yum install python-mozhttpd.noarch ;; simple python web server? (nope)
yum install python-requests.noarch ;; python http support? (nope)
yum install python3-requests.noarch ;; python http support? (finally!)
yum install liveusb-creator ;; making a Fedora 20 USB live-cd
echo 100000 | tee /proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_watches ;; for dropbox
...

;; for network printing, in system-config-firewall, enable Samba Client, 
;; Multicast DNS (mdns), Network Printing Client (IPP) and Network Printing Server (IPP)
