Idesk Installation

  • Download iDesk (the last version is 0.7.5)
  • Decompress and untar the tar.gz file into a directory. In that directory:
tar -xjvf idesk-0.7.5.tar.bz2
  • You should be into directory
cd idesk-0.7.5 
  • We need to do a configure process (by default the target directory will be in /usr/local, you can modify with --prefix=another-path)
./configure
  • We need to build the sources
 make
  • If you have access as root and you want to install Idesk in someone system directory you need to do this:
 su root
  • For install
 make install

Make install will copy the directories $prefix/share/idesk where Idesk save default resources and $prefix/bin/idesk where Idesk binary install is.

Configure .ideskrc and .idesktop as specificed in Idesk-Usage or the README.
