Setting up a computer for sbgrid (Fedora 7)
[unfinished - work in progress]
Preparing a fedora 7 linux computer for stereo molecular modelling.
1) install all linux updates
- yum update
2) Disable selinux
3) Get Livna rpm for fedora 7 - this will allow yum to automatically connect to the livna repositories
4) Install livna nvidia drivers - Assuming the installed hardware has a stereo capable nvidia card
- yum install kmod-nvidia
5) set up xorg.conf files - can use nvidia-xconfig command for more userfriendly autoconfig.
Livna display configuration - disable all (gdm etc)
If using sbgrid, copy /programs from a donor computer.
6) In the file /etc/csh.cshrc , add this line to the end of the file:
source /programs/labcshrc
This will allow for the sbgrid programs to be called upon from anywhere.
