# X-CD-Roast 0.98alpha9 #

###########################################################
Alpha9 comes with a ton of bug fixes and a brand new
non-root-mode that will work fine with the current GTK
releases. There is some nice new stuff in the master-menu
(sorry, still no multisession) and AIX and OpenBSD users
should be able to use X-CD-Roast too. Please note that you
require the cdrtools 1.10. Also check the CHANGELOG file
for details.
This alpha-release is again under the GPL. I do explicitly
allow distributions to include this piece of software.
(After they tested it thoroughly, of course)
For news about new tests and previews see
http://www.xcdroast.org
Some features: (marked with "*" if already implemented and working)
- Portable (*)
- Multi langual (*)
- CDDB-support (*)
- Graphical setup (*)
- Graphical wav-player (*)
- Tooltip help (*)
- Copies Data (*), Audio (*), Mixed-Mode (*), Multisession, CD-Extra
- Creates Data (*), Audio (*), Mixed-Mode (*), Multisession, CD-Extra
- Bootable CD support (*)
- Copy (*)/Master (*) on the fly.
- Administration mode for usage in computer pools. (*)
- MP3 encoding/decoding.
System-Requirements:
BIG NOTE: On recent Linux-distributions ALL the following libraries are
included! There is NO need to download that stuff and install
yourself. Do use the things that are on your Linux-CDs!
The only package you might need to get is cdrtools-1.10.
Be sure to have the DEVELOPMENT versions of the libraries
installed. (marked with -dev oder -devel on the RPMs filenames)
Otherwise you will fail to compile any program.
This is also true for the X-development libraries.
glib-1.2.3 and gtk+-1.2.3 (or newer, current version is 1.2.10)
(ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/gtk/v1.2/glib-1.2.10.tar.gz)
(ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/gtk/v1.2/gtk+-1.2.10.tar.gz)
NOTE about GTK on solaris:
GTK must be installed in /lib or /usr/lib on solaris in order
to work. A setting in LD_LIBRARY_PATH is ignored.
libgif or libungif
(ftp://prtr-13.ucsc.edu/pub/libungif/libungif-4.1.0b1.tar.gz)
libz/libpng
(ftp://ftp.uu.net/.vol/1/graphics/png/src/zlib-1.1.3.tar.gz)
(ftp://ftp.uu.net/.vol/1/graphics/png/src/libpng-1.0.9.tar.gz)
imlib-1.8.x (or newer, current version is 1.9.10)
(ftp://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/stable/sources/imlib/imlib-1.9.10.tar.gz)
cdrtools-1.10
(which includes cdrecord, mkisofs, cdda2wav, readcd)
(ftp://ftp.fokus.gmd.de/pub/unix/cdrecord/cdrtools-1.10.tar.gz)
Note: A newer version cdrecord might work if you start X-CD-Roast
always with the -n option. This is NOT recommended.
Installation:
- Install glib, gtk, lib[un]gif, libz,libpng, imlib (in that order)...
(if not already installed)
- Type "make" and hope xcdroast compiles cleanly.
(tested on solaris-2.6 and linux-2.x)
If you want to install xcdroast in another prefix-path as "/usr/local" you
have to modify the Makefile or start make like this:
"make PREFIX=/usr"
(Don't forget the PREFIX-parameter for make deinstall and install too, if
you used it in the first place!)
There is a new option CDRTOOLS_PREFIX which let you choose where
X-CD-Roast should look for cdrecord. Default is the same as PREFIX.
(always specify prefixes without "/bin" parts - so /usr is correct,
/usr/bin not.)
- If you had a prior alpha-version of X-CD-Roast 0.98 installed, you should
now remove its files with "make deinstall" before continuing.
- Install cdrecord, mkisofs, cdda2wav and readcd:
Compile the tools and copy the binaries to "lib/bin" of the xcdroast-source
directory. Alternatively you can use "$PREFIX/bin" (if your prefix was
"/usr/local", X-CD-Roast will also search in "/usr/local/bin" for the
cdrecord-tools, or in the prefix you gave with CDRTOOLS_PREFIX.)
Example under Linux:
tar xvfz cdrtoos-1.10.tar.gz
cd cdrtools-1.10
make
make INS_BASE=/usr/local install
- Then you can do a "make install" in the X-CD-Roast source tree.
(you have to be root for this - again, dont forget the PREFIX if
you used it before - like "make PREFIX=/usr install")
(Alternatively you can run xcdroast in the current directory by
starting "./xcdrgtk -l lib" without installing it)
WARNING: This release will overwrite any old versions of X-CD-Roast.
So rename your old xcdroast binary if you want to keep it.
- Before you can start X-CD-Roast now, you have to follow the
instructions in "README.nonroot". This tells you how to
set the permissions to let also a non-root user use X-CD-Roast.
If you dont want to let non-root users run X-CD-Roast, please
also consult the README - there are instructions for you.
Now you can start X-CD-Roast with "xcdroast".
See DOCUMENTATION about basic usage and FAQ for any questions you may have.
Feedback/Bugreports:
If you think you found a bug (please don't write about "missing" features -
remember this test shows only about 92% of the final product) you have
first to find out if you can reproduce it reliably. Then run xcdroast in
debug mode (-d 10 switch) and send me the output. Please describe
what exactly you have done and what went wrong. Also make your tests
with english or german texts! Otherwise I can't read the error-messages
myself!
Please note:
This code is alpha and it may screw up your scsi-bus, erase all your
disks and causes headaches. You have been warned.
I won't answer any mails about things explained in this file or on
my webpage.
The FAQ on http://www.xcdroast.org is the first place to look when
you have problems.
