adding a computer running mprime

2009-01-22, 04:55

Hi all. I just got a third home desktop, it's running ubuntu linux and mprime and i was wondering how i could add the computer to my user/team? i looked through the files in the mprime folder and it wasn't very obvious on how to link it to my user. help would be appreciated

When you run the program for the first time, it will ask for your username.

Try "./mprime -m"

As a terminal command. Once you have it properly set up, you can run it as a daemon.

Just what did it do - an error message, nothing? I assume you (in terminal) changed to the directory where mprime is, then entered:
./mprime -m
then what happened?

Hi. Open a terminal, switchh to the folder where youuuu downloaded mprime, and in that place type <chmod a+x mprime>. That will make mprime executable and then yes type <./mprime -m>. Assumed you know about <top>, <kill> and basic Linux commands.
