Re: XEphem 3.7.7 live CD?
I'd say minimal like fvwm. I was trying to remember if it needed X at all until I remembered it uses Motif as a widget set. Wikipedia:

Re: XEphem 3.7.7 live CD?
Hey guys, I'm the maintainer for xephem on openSUSE, I guess I could spin up a live CD based on openSUSE Leap 15.1 on short notice. What Desktop Environment would be preferred? The available

Re: XEphem 3.7.7 live CD?
OK, good luck. I assume the current XEphem will be the final one, so it's worth building in the extra star catalogs. I wonder if it could be compiled to run on an Android phone or tablet? It would

Re: XEphem 3.7.7 live CD?

Re: XEphem 3.7.7 live CD?
Hmm, I'll try to look it up but I think you just put the key in (so it's mounted) and install Linux to it. Then unmount and try booting from it. There's no point in installing Xephem until you get

Hi, I should have added that this would be for a classroom with 16+1 regular PCs (Dell OptiPlex with Core i5 CPU, 8Gb RAM and CD-DVD drive). I have tried to make myself a USB key with a persistent

Re: XEphem 3.7.7 live CD?
Live CD for what kind of Linux? It's one of the problems with diversity. I'm on a 64-bit ARM machine, last it was a 32-bit ARM (Raspberry Pi), I have no use for an Intel/AMD Linux disk. But images

Elwood, Thanks, this worked great for me on my older mac os (10.10.5, Yosemite). I used wget instead of curl, but I don¡¯t think wget is part of the standard distribution. Bruce
