Galaxium Messenger

Installation
------------

Since the software only contains two file, you may put them anywhere you choose as long as they are together. The easiest option is to either put them in /usr/local/bin (as root) so that everyone can use the program, or put them in your user directory like /home/user/bin and add the directory to your bash profile.

PS: Currently we require the use of libegg.so until GTK# includes a tray icon. You must have the library in a directory that is included in your library path (/etc/ld.so.conf) and must run /sbin/ldconfig after you have done so to register it.

Using & Configuring
-------------------

When you run the software, a new directory structure is created in your home directory called ~/.galaxium where all your settings will be stored. If you ever need to clear your entire configuration, simply delete this folder.

Starting Mono Executables
-------------------------

It is recommended that you setup your kernel to load Mono .exe files like executables. You may do this only if the binfmt_misc module is part of your kernel (Fedora Core 2 already has this included). You must add the following line to your /etc/fstab file:

none /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc binfmt_misc defaults 0 0

And you must also add the following line to your /etc/rc.d/rc.local file:

echo ':CLR:M::MZ::/usr/bin/mono:' > /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc/register

This will allow you to call executables from any path as long as the .exe file is located in your environment path.
