Linux

Installing the dependencies.

Before building Radium, you need to install the dependencies. Under debian wheezy and chrunchbang you need to install (at least) the following packages:

guile-2.0-dev libxaw7-dev binutils-dev libspeex-dev libfftw3-dev

Build Ŕadium from a release tarball

The recommended way of installing Radium on linux is by downloading a release tarball at http://archive.notam02.no/arkiv/src/?C=M;O=D. Look for the release with the highest number and the extension .tar.gz. Then unpack the tarball and start the build by typing:

cd radium.x.y.z
make packages
BUILDTYPE=RELEASE ./build_linux.sh -j7

Staying in that directory, you can then run Radium by typing ./start.sh

Building from GIT

Installing from GIT is mainly for those interested in development of Radium. You can pull the source code for Radium from the GIT repository by typing the following in a terminal:

git clone https://github.com/kmatheussen/radium.git

This will clone the source code into a new directory, called radium. You then build Radium by typing:

touch audio/*.cpp common/gfx_op_queue_generated.c common/visual_op_queue_proc.h
make packages
BUILDTYPE=RELEASE ./build_linux.sh -j7

Staying in that directory, you can then run radium by typing ./start.sh

Running Radium

Note that there's no install target in the Makefile. This means that you simply build Radium in a suitable directory and start it from that directory by running the start.sh script. If you'd rather not have to go to that directory every time, you can put the following in a script named radium in ~/bin (remember to make the script executable afterwards):

#!/bin/bash
cd ~/path/to/radium
start.sh "$@"
