| − | The TROPIX (pronounced "trópix") is an Operating System of 32
| |
| − | bit, multiuser and multitasking, philosophy of UNIX ®, developed
| |
| − | the Center for Computer Electronics, Federal University of Rio
| |
| − | January (NCE / UFRJ).
| |
| − | | |
| − | The TROPIX was originally conceived during the years 1982 to 1986
| |
| − | (at the time with the name PLURIX) to the computer PEGASUS. This
| |
| − | computer was built in the NCE, and was based on
| |
| − | MOTOROLA 68010/20 processor. Since its beginning, the system was
| |
| − | designed for symmetric multiprocessing, operating in a
| |
| − | PEGASUS 2 CPUs which had 68,020.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The system was shipped in 1987 to the computer ICARUS,
| |
| − | based on these same processor, and added the
| |
| − | support for real time. Was initiated in 1994 for the transport
| |
| − | Intel line of processors (386, 486, Pentium), and since 1996 the
| |
| − | TROPIX is already operating on PCs and is used in several
| |
| − | computers.
| |
| − | | |
| − | In this version for PCs, is not yet completed the detection of
| |
| − | motherboard with more than one CPU, which is necessary for the
| |
| − | multiprocessing.
| |
| − | | |
| − | In relation to real time, has recently completed a thesis of
| |
| − | Masters was developed in which a version of the core TROPIX
| |
| − | in real time.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The TROPIX has several utilities, such as
| |
| − | study / learning / use of an operating system
| |
| − | UNIX philosophy, the development of programs (software) and
| |
| − | implementation of servers to the Internet. Furthermore, it is ideal
| |
| − | for use in courses on operating systems, it contains
| |
| − | primitive to the "light" ( "threads"), memory
| |
| − | shared, the level of user traffic lights, among others.
| |
| − | | |
| − | This text (which you're reading) contains introductory information
| |
| − | on the distribution and installation of the system TROPIX. During the
| |
| − | installation, it can be viewed / printed on your PC (see
| |
| − | end of Chapter 8). In addition, it contains the information for
| |
| − | Installation of X-Window Graphical Interface (Chapters 19 to 22), and
| |
| − | information for installing / compiling the source code TROPIX
| |
| − | (Chapters 23 and 24).
| |
| − | | |
| − | The operating system is a TROPIX software free, and you are
| |
| − | welcome to redistribute it under certain conditions, for details,
| |
| − | type "man" license (after installation).
| |
| − | | |
| − | Currently, the development and maintenance of TROPIX are
| |
| − | made by Peter and Salenbauch Oswaldo Vernet. For more

| − | occupied space (both on disk and in main memory).
| |
| − | As an example, a typical utility, the "cp" which occupied 13,704
| |
| − | bytes, went to occupy only 4,032, ie, fell short of
| |
| − | third the size. In the case of graphic tools, this

| − | "xedit" which went from 612 KB to less than 4KB!
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | This version also includes some new programs, among
| |

| − | 1: "cdplay: plays audio CDs in units IDE / ATAPI and
| |
| − | SCSI.
| |

| |
| − | allocation of the computer's main memory.
| |
| − | | |

| |
| − | the "notepad" in Windows).
| |
| − | | |
| − | 10: "xpaint" now accepts the JPEG format.

| − | The distribution of TROPIX is free, and it can be installed
| |
| − | via a CDROM or floppy.
| |
| − | | |
| − | 1. The CDROM is distributed through an image, and contains the
| |
| − | TROPIX complete object (including the System Chart
| |
| − | X-Window). This image should be used to burn a CDROM
| |
| − | through an appropriate program: see chapter 5.
| |
| − | | |
| − | 2. The distribution by floppy disk is part of the basic
| |
| − | with 2 disks, 3 ½ "and X-Window System in Figure 2
| |
| − | Additional disks: see the chapters 19 to 22.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The installation on PCs can be done in two ways: on partitions
| |
| − | own or in files from one partition to FAT16 or FAT32
| |
| − | MS-DOS/Windows (in this case without the need for change
| |
| − | partitions of disks). It included a manager of cargo
| |
| − | operating systems ( "boot0"), to amicable coexistence with
| |
| − | other operating systems.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Currently the TROPIX has the basic commands of UNIX (in addition to
| |
| − | some more commands themselves), a development system for
| |
| − | the language ANSI "C", support for the network of computers
| |
| − | Internet with TCP / IP, SLIP, PPP (for dial-line) and
| |
| − | Client / Server "telnet", "rlogin", "ftp", "mail", "pop3" and
| |
| − | others.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Whole TROPIX is based on the code character ISO-8859-1
| |
| − | (Latin-1, the same Windows 95/98/NT/2000/XP), taking all the
| |
| − | stress available in all modes (text, graphic) and
| |
| − | commands. Moreover, all the manuals can be found in
| |
| − | screen (on-line), and are in Portuguese.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The file systems MS-DOS/Windows FAT-12/16/32/NTFS (both in
| |
| − | partitions on the disks as hard drives) can be mounted
| |
| − | (the latter only for reading).
| |
| − | | |
| − | For mounting remote file systems we have available the
| |
| − | NFS protocol, version 2.
| |
| − | | |
| − | CD-ROMs can also be fitted to all variants

| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | Conceptually, the operating system is similar to TROPIX
| |
| − | UNIX type systems, although there are some differences. To
| |
| − | unambiguous way of describing the installation procedure and use
| |
| − | TROPIX of the PCs, use the conventions described below. Note
| |
| − | and these conventions because they are used in TROPIX as a
| |
| − | whole, including the system after installation.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Keystrokes <enter> means to press the key that has this name;
| |
| − | typing <sp> (blank) means hit the space bar.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Keystrokes <^ D> means press both keys "ctl" and
| |
| − | "D". By doing this, we first compress the key "ctl"
| |
| − | (holding it compressed) and then press the key "D".
| |
| − | Similarly, typing <^ A>, <^ B>, ... means to compress the keys
| |
| − | "ctl" with "A", "B", ... On some keyboards, we have
| |
| − | "ctrl" instead of "ctl".
| |
| − | | |
| − | Keystrokes <ctl-alt-del> means compressing both the three
| |
| − | keys displayed; hit <reset> means of compressing the button
| |
| − | "reset" the PC that, in general, is in the office of the PC (and not in
| |
| − | keyboard).
| |
| − | | |
| − | Keystrokes "-fd0 tropix means hit the keys in sequence" - ",
| |
| − | "f", "d", "0", <sp>, "t", "r", "the", "p", "i", "x" and <enter>. When
| |
| − | specify a string for keyboard (such as
| |
| − | given above) implicitly assume that a keyboard to <enter>
| |
| − | end of the chain (unless it is explicitly stated the
| |
| − | otherwise).
| |
| − | | |
| − | We must remember that in TROPIX, as in all systems
| |
| − | Operating similar to UNIX, uppercase characters are
| |
| − | Different lowercase letters. In the above example, therefore, not
| |
| − | must compress the key <Shift> because the letters to be generated
| |
| − | are all lowercase.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Some of the commands may request a TROPIX
| |
| − | information / confirmation of action. This request is identified by a
| |
| − | "prompt" that can be a character or a string that
| |
| − | system writes to the screen.
| |
| − | | |
| − | In TROPIX, some of the "prompt" s contain a string
| |
| − | brackets before a "." This means that typing
| |
| − | chain or simply typing <enter> have the same effect. This
| |
| − | string of characters is called the "default", ie what
| |
| − | will be interpreted by the lack of a string
| |
| − | explicitly keyboard.

| − | | |
| − | Loads (fd0, tropix)? (s):
| |
| − | | |
| − | is equivalent typing "s" followed by <enter> or simply
| |
| − | <enter>, which means "yes." If you want to answer "no",
| |
| − | we have to hit "n" followed by <enter>.
| |
| − | | |
| − | In some commands, an answer with a capital letter ( "S" or "N")
| |
| − | means that this and all subsequent questions are
| |
| − | answered automatically (yes to "S" and
| |
| − | negatively to "N"). The manual for each command (see below)
| |
| − | information if it follows this convention.
| |
| − | | |
| − | In TROPIX, usually, the system stops writing to the screen
| |
| − | complete a screen (24 lines). This is convenient because the user
| |
| − | have time to read the text without a new text replaces the text
| |
| − | current that (maybe) has not yet been read. To continue
| |
| − | writing the text simply typing <^ Q>. Besides, an output on the screen
| |
| − | can be stopped at any time by typing <^ S>. This can be
| |
| − | changed by the command "stty" (see below).
| |
| − | | |
| − | When entering the "multiplayer" (see below) the TROPIX offers 8
| |
| − | independent virtual screens. The switching between the virtual screens
| |
| − | is done by typing <^ S> (to stop the output in the virtual screen
| |
| − | current), followed by the number of the virtual screen to which want
| |

| |
| − | | |
| − | If you have a partition DOS / Windows or NTFS on your FAT16/32
| |
| − | computer, creating a floppy GAR1 may be waived. The idea
| |
| − | is to copy the image to a directory "\ TROPIX" partition
| |
| − | DOS / Windows.
| |
| − | | |
| − | 1. If you use a UNIX system, you must use the commands
| |

| |
| − | mkdir / mnt / TROPIX
| |
| − | gar1.dsk cp / mnt / TROPIX
| |
| − | umount / dev/hda1
| |
| − | | |
| − | where "/ dev/hda1" may be replaced by another partition
| |
| − | DOS / Windows you want.
| |
| − | | |
| − | If your partition is NTFS, find out if your UNIX system
| |
| − | supports the writing in these file systems, many
| |
| − | UNIX systems (including Linux) support in general only
| |
| − | reading).
| |
| − | | |
| − | 2. If you use WinXP/Win2000/WinNT/Win98/Win95/Win3.x should
| |
| − | use the "Windows Explorer" to create the directory
| |
| − | "C: \ TROPIX" and then copy the file "gar1.dsk" for the
| |
| − | directory created. Instead of "C", can be used another
| |
| − | desired partition.
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | If you do not have a partition DOS / Windows or NTFS on your FAT16/32
| |
| − | computer, or is wanting to install on another computer TROPIX,
| |
| − | GAR1 the disk must be created.
| |
| − | | |
| − | This should be done the way already seen in Chapter 6 of course
| |
| − | susbtituindo to "boot.dsk" by "gar1.dsk.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Use diskettes new, of good quality. Many of the errors

| − | There are two ways to install the disk TROPIX:
| |
| − | | |
| − | 1. In the TROPIX own partitions. This mode offers the best
| |
| − | performance, but the installation requires a certain care.
| |
| − | Can be optionally installed a manager "boot",
| |
| − | to allow the choice of operating system to load.
| |
| − | Follow the sequence of chapters 12, 13, 14, 15, 16 and 17.
| |
| − | | |
| − | 2. In MS-DOS/Windows files. This mode does not offer a
| |
| − | performance as good and "boot" of TROPIX will always be
| |
| − | via CDROM or floppy, but the installation is more
| |
| − | simple. See the chapters 11, 16 and 17.
| |
| − | | |
| − | We suggest you read this guide to the end, before starting the
| |
| − | installation, so you'll have a better overview and can evaluate
| |
| − | the various options appropriately.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The procedures for the installation of TROPIX described here were
| |
| − | made for the installation takes place without setbacks. In
| |
| − | However, it is possible that (by neglect of the user) is the loss of
| |
| − | existing files on your computer and / or the operating system
| |
| − | original (eg MS-DOS/Windows) can not run more.
| |
| − | This may occur mainly due to the misuse of
| |
| − | editor of partitions "fdisk" (Chapter 13).
| |
| − | | |
| − | Even during normal use of the system (after installation
| |
| − | correct), it is possible to accidentally remove files
| |
| − | MS-DOS/Windows for use with mounted FAT partition, or using
| |
| − | the "dosmp.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Although we have tested the operation of the system, believing that
| |
| − | it does not contain any serious error, where there is theoretically a
| |
| − | possibility that, through some error still unknown,
| |
| − | is affected some other operating system.
| |
| − | | |
| − | WE DO NOT LIABLE FOR THESE POSSIBLE ACCIDENTS! YOU

| − | This mode offers a performance not as good as the installation of
| |
| − | Partitions in TROPIX own, in contrast, the installation is more
| |
| − | simply because it is not necessary to rearrange the partitions of the disk.
| |
| − | This method is only possible with file systems FAT-16 or
| |
| − | FAT-32, is still not possible with NTFS.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The idea is to use an existing partition of
| |
| − | MS-DOS/Windows it and create the directory "\ TROPIX" containing 2
| |
| − | files: "ROOT" and "HOME". These files will contain the systems
| |
| − | TROPIX files and load the system will be done through CDROM
| |
| − | or floppy disk.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The steps of the installation are:
| |
| − | | |
| − | 1. Initially it is interesting to verify the integrity of
| |
| − | MS-DOS/Windows partition chosen. For this use the
| |
| − | CHKDSK utility or SCANDISK (MS-DOS or Windows).
| |
| − | | |
| − | Another option is to use NDD (Norton Disk Doctor) of "NORTON
| |
| − | Utilities. "Note the size of available free space of
| |
| − | partition chosen: for a normal installation are
| |
| − | required 128 MB.
| |
| − | | |
| − | 2. As a second step, we defragment the partition
| |
| − | chosen. This means compress all files
| |
| − | MS-DOS/Windows the beginning of the partition, so it is
| |
| − | only a free area at the end, which will create the 2
| |
| − | files in the directory "\ TROPIX. This can be done by
| |
| − | Defrag utility (MS-DOS or Windows) or the DISK SPEED
| |
| − | the "Norton Utilities".
| |
| − | | |
| − | 3. Enter the BOOT ROM or floppy disk and load the TROPIX
| |
| − | system (as in chapter 8). Log in multiuser mode.
| |
| − | | |
| − | 4. Go to the directory "/ usr / etc / install" (use the command "cd
| |
| − | / usr / etc / install "). The normal installation will occupy 128 MB of
| |
| − | MS-DOS/Windows your partition (64 MB for the ROOT, 64 MB for
| |
| − | HOME), which is sufficient for the graphical interface
| |
| − | X-Window. If you have this space available and is
| |
| − | happy with it, go to step 5.
| |
| − | | |
| − | To change the size of the installation, just edit the file
| |
| − | "install.dos" (see chapter 25, for an introduction to the use
| |
| − | the text editor "vi"). To change the size of a
| |
| − | file, simply change the number after the line that
| |
| − | starting with "mkfile.
| |
| − | | |
| − | 5. Start the installation, typing the command "install.dos.

| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | To install the partitions in TROPIX own (which enables the
| |
| − | best performance) to have a basic concept of how
| |
| − | are organized on PC hard drives.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Each disc is divided into one or more sections called
| |
| − | "partitions". Each of these partitions is designed to be used by
| |
| − | an operating system (in some cases some of the partitions can
| |
| − | be shared by two or more operating systems).
| |
| − | | |
| − | We can have up to 4 partitions "regular" (or "primary") in each
| |
| − | disc. If this number is not enough, we can define one of
| |
| − | partitions as the type "extended", which may contain several
| |
| − | other (sub-) partitions partitions called "logical".
| |
| − | | |
| − | Users of MS-DOS/Windows certainly have had contact with
| |
| − | partitions, since these systems each partition receives a letter,
| |
| − | starting from "C". Thus, we have partitions "C", "D", "E", ...
| |
| − | | |
| − | The nomenclature used in TROPIX is quite different set of letters
| |
| − | above. Let's consider a computer with one IDE disk. The
| |
| − | four partitions are called "hda1", "hda2", "hda3" and
| |
| − | "hda4. If one is "extended" for example "hda3" she
| |
| − | contain the (sub-) partitions "logical" hda3a "," hda3b, "... Besides
| |
| − | this, we have "hda" to represent the disc as a whole.
| |
| − | | |
| − | If your computer has more of an IDE disk, the second is the
| |
| − | "hdb ..." instead of "hda ..." (simply replace the "at" with "b" in
| |
| − | example above). If your computer has SCSI disks, the names will be
| |
| − | "sda ..."," sdb ...", ... (simply replace the "h" in "s" in the example
| |
| − | above).
| |
| − | | |
| − | As already mentioned, we have only one extended partition. By
| |
| − | this, in TROPIX was a new type of partition
| |
| − | extended (the extended partition type TROPIX), structurally
| |
| − | identical to the original, but with a different identification code. The
| |
| − | objective is to enable the grouping of all (sub-) partitions
| |
| − | TROPIX desired in only one partition (extended) alone, even
| |
| − | which is already an extended partition traditional (we call
| |
| − | kind of).
| |
| − | | |
| − | Choosing the distribution of its multiple partitions (one or
| |
| − | mais) disks, must be taken into account how many disks are
| |
| − | present, how many partitions are needed / already allocated, ...
| |
| − | | |
| − | In the example of the next chapter, we create a (new) partition
| |
| − | Extended (Type TROPIX) to include all partitions TROPIX.
| |
| − | This is a simple and elegant, it only need
| |
| − | particiju vague.

| − | | |
| − | Naturally, we can also create a partition for each regular
| |
| − | TROPIX desired partition, or adding new partitions
| |
| − | logical TROPIX a DOS extended partition already exists.
| |
| − | | |
| − | For the purpose of "boot", the file system of ROOT can TROPIX
| |
| − | be allocated to any partition of any disk.
| |
| − | | |
| − | If space is available in more than one hard disk,
| |
| − | strongly advised to distribute the partitions between the various
| |
| − | discs.

| − | | |
| − | One of the most frequent is to PCs that have only one disk
| |
| − | Rigid fully occupied with only one partition MS-DOS/Windows,
| |
| − | corresponding to "C:".
| |
| − | | |
| − | In this case, at first sight, there are only 2 possibilities for
| |
| − | more space for partitions TROPIX: install a new hard disk,
| |
| − | or save your files and reinstall MS-DOS/Windows
| |
| − | MS-DOS/Windows in a partition of smaller size.
| |
| − | | |
| − | A third possibility is to reduce the partition
| |
| − | MS-DOS/Windows in their location (ie, without destroying the
| |
| − | its contents). This can be done by the command "chsize" of
| |
| − | utility "dosmp. You can also use the "fips" of
| |
| − | LINUX, or the program Partition Magic, Powerquest's name, if
| |
| − | you by chance have the.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Before using the command "chsize", to reduce the size of
| |
| − | MS-DOS/Windows partition, it is essential to verify its integrity and
| |
| − | defragmenting it. The verification of integrity can be made by
| |
| − | CHKDSK utility or SCANDISK (the MS-DOS/Windows) or NDD
| |
| − | (Norton Disk Doctor) of "Norton Utilities". The defragmentação can
| |
| − | be made by the defrag utility (the MS-DOS/Windows), or the SPEED
| |
| − | DISK of "Norton Utilities".
| |
| − | | |
| − | Remember that the programs of defragmentation may NOT
| |
| − | move the file to swap the MS-DOS/Windows. You must remove it
| |
| − | (using the "Control Panel") and then reinstall it.
| |
| − | | |
| − | If you or MIRROR IMAGE USA, the last sector of the partition contains a
| |
| − | file "hidden" name of "\ image.idx" or "\ mirorsav.fil. You must
| |
| − | remove this file (using "attrib" and "del"). It will be recreated
| |
| − | the next time you run or MIRROR IMAGE (we hope,
| |
| − | not tested).
| |
| − | | |
| − | Another source of problems are the files named "* \ desktop .*", the
| |
| − | which Windows does not move: they must be saved and later
| |
| − | restored.
| |
| − | | |
| − | If you a USA system compressed files with "Stacker,"
| |
| − | "SuperStor", "Doublespace," ... possibly (?) "Chsize" will not
| |
| − | work. Not tested "chsize" in these cases (even if we know

| |
| − | | |
| − | After defragmentation, insert the CDROM or floppy disk of the BOOT
| |

| |
| − | DOS/WinXP/Win2000/WinNT/Win98/Win95/Win3.x.

| − | | |
| − | If you're reading this chapter, we assume that you already have space in
| |
| − | TROPIX disk partitions and have to learn how to use the editor,
| |
| − | partitions "fdisk".
| |
| − | | |
| − | The idea is to create two or more partitions for TROPIX. The
| |
| − | minimum is to create a root partition. We recommend, however,
| |
| − | create at least one more, HOME, to contain the files
| |
| − | private users.
| |
| − | | |
| − | If you have 128 MB available, we suggest 64 MB and 64 MB for ROOT
| |
| − | for HOME, these sizes will be sufficient even for
| |
| − | X-Window graphical interface. If you have more space available, you can
| |
| − | increase the sizes of partitions, or to create partitions
| |
| − | additional.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The steps of the installation are:
| |
| − | | |
| − | 1. Create partitions for TROPIX by the editor of
| |
| − | partitions "fdisk" (see chapter 13). DO NOT forget to
| |
| − | "enable" the root partition. It is not necessary that the partition
| |
| − | ROOT (which will be given the "boot") is the first disc.
| |
| − | | |
| − | We suggest creating an extended partition type to TROPIX
| |
| − | contain the various partitions needed / desired, that the
| |
| − | But it is not necessary: it is more convenient for your
| |
| − | case, the partitions TROPIX may also be of the "regular"
| |
| − | ( "primary"), or logical partitions within a
| |
| − | DOS extended partition type. If you have more than one
| |
| − | disk, it is interesting to distribute the various partitions by
| |
| − | disks.
| |
| − | | |
| − | 2. Enter the BOOT ROM or floppy disk and load the TROPIX
| |
| − | system (as in chapter 8). Log in multiuser mode.
| |
| − | | |
| − | 3. Go to the directory "/ usr / etc / install" (use the command "cd
| |
| − | / usr / etc / install "). Start the installation via the command
| |
| − | "install". This step creates file systems in TROPIX
| |
| − | selected partition and copies the files of the fundamental
| |
| − | TROPIX to the hard disk. Follow the instructions.
| |
| − | | |
| − | If you want to keep an older version of system

| − | "man." Moreover, all the commands provide a brief summary of
| |
| − | its use through the option "-H" (eg "passwd-H).
| |
| − | | |
| − | To see the utilitarian "passwd" (for example), press
| |
| − | "man passwd". To move forward / backward by several pages of

| |
| − | | |
| − | We first change the password to the account "root" and
| |
| − | the establishment of regular accounts (ie not super). To
| |
| − | change passwords, use the command "passwd"; to
| |
| − | creation / management of accounts, use the command "edusr.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Also an important task is to update the file
| |
| − | "/ etc / fstab", which contains information of the file systems
| |
| − | mount. Read the manual of "fstab" (fmt), "getmntent" (libc) and
| |
| − | "mount" (cmd). In particular, if you do not have the partition HOME,
| |
| − | remove the line from "/ etc / fstab."
| |
| − | | |
| − | From time to time (say once a week) is interesting
| |
| − | check the integrity of file systems. Thus, after
| |
| − | the load of the system (still in the "single"), use the command
| |
| − | "fsck". Note that the file "/ etc / fstab" also controls the
| |
| − | file systems examined by "fsck" (to put the
| |
| − | "/ dev / root" as the last in the list). For a list of all
| |

| |
| − | | |
| − | Through the command "edscb" you can change the computer name

| |
| − | | |
| − | The TROPIX is distributed in the DMA of the IDE controllers off,
| |
| − | as with certain drivers can cause problems. Try
| |
| − | connect it via "dmaenable = 1", initially during the "boot"
| |
| − | to test, and if working properly, the file "/ tropix"
| |
| − | through the utility "edscb. With this, you will increase the
| |

| |
| − | | |
| − | Read Chapter 26, which is given a list of key commands
| |
| − | the TROPIX.
| |

| − | | |
| − | Although the TROPIX is a UNIX system of philosophy, some
| |
| − | unique characteristics that are not found in other
| |
| − | such systems. Below are given some of these
| |
| − | originalities:
| |
| − | | |
| − | 1. In most UNIX systems, when a file list
| |
| − | several pages in the video, it "rolls" off the screen before
| |
| − | can read it. We then use the command "more" in the form
| |
| − | | |
| − | cat texto.txt | more
| |
| − | | |
| − | or,
| |
| − | | |
| − | more texto.txt
| |
| − | | |
| − | This is the case, too, if we use the command "ls-l" with
| |
| − | directories containing many files.
| |
| − | | |
| − | In TROPIX, this is not necessary, the output of the video is paused
| |
| − | when she completes the number of lines visible. To
| |
| − | continue to output the video, just hit <^ Q>.
| |
| − | | |
| − | This can be changed via the command "stty" (see
| |
| − | the manual).
| |
| − | | |
| − | 2. The utility "show" allows you to view a text file
| |
| − | so should the video, can advance / rewind
| |
| − | on the text with commands similar to the text editor
| |
| − | "vi". It is especially useful for examining the output of a
| |
| − | program, using a "pipe" (see manual).
| |
| − | | |
| − | 3. The command "extend": This utility is an extension of the "tar",
| |
| − | Standard UNIX world. The "crease", and create / extract collections
| |
| − | of the "tar", collections of extracting the "cpio", he
| |
| − | create / extract / compare / add collections of the format itself
| |
| − | ( "GAR") with / without compression. You certainly have used the
| |
| − | "extend" to install the TROPIX (see manual).
| |
| − | | |
| − | 4. The utilities "cmptree / cptree" allow
| |
| − | copy / compare / update the file system tree
| |
| − | places to own computers (see the manual).
| |
| − | | |
| − | 5. The family of utilities "tcmpto" allows
| |
| − | copy / compare / update the file system tree
| |
| − | to / from the local computer and a remote computer through
| |
| − | own protocol for TCP / IP (see the manual).

| − | This chapter contains information only for installation by
| |
| − | floppy disks. If you are installing from a CDROM, you can
| |
| − | skip it.
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | The distribution of the graphical interface X-Window is done by
| |
| − | collection "xwin.tgz": get it from the page of TROPIX
| |
| − | ( "http://tropix.nce.ufrj.br).
| |
| − | | |
| − | Once having obtained this collection, it is necessary to prepare the 2
| |
| − | files or create the 2 disks, 3 ½ ". It contains the following
| |
| − | files:
| |
| − | | |
| − | fdimage.exe
| |
| − | xwin1.dsk
| |
| − | xwin2.dsk
| |
| − | | |
| − | The file "fdimage.exe" is a copy utility for Windows
| |
| − | (You probably already has it, obtained during the installation of TROPIX
| |
| − | basic), and the remaining files are the contents of 2 disks.
| |
| − | | |
| − | As in the case of TROPIX basic, if you have a partition
| |
| − | DOS / Windows FAT16/32 or NTFS on your computer, the creation of
| |
| − | XWIN1 disks and XWIN2 may be waived. Follow the script
| |
| − | Chapter 9 (replacing "gar1" by "xwin1" and "xwin2).
| |
| − | | |
| − | As with disks or files prepared from the system
| |
| − | TROPIX (as superuser), go to the directory "/ usr / etc / install",
| |
| − | and run the command
| |
| − | | |
| − | install.xwin
| |
| − | | |
| − | and follow their instructions. The system needs about 10 MB in
| |
| − | disc.

| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | Once installed all the files from the X-Window Graphical Interface
| |
| − | (if you are installing via the CDROM that is automatic for
| |
| − | case of disks see chapter above), we give below the
| |
| − | method step by step to the system configuration. This should be
| |
| − | done as superuser.
| |
| − | | |
| − | 1. Setting the "internet": She is running to at least
| |
| − | access to internal ( "loopback"), that normally, the
| |
| − | installation of TROPIX already held. For details, see
| |
| − | the manual "internet" (via the command "man").
| |
| − | | |
| − | 2. Specification of "mouse": The system is configured for
| |
| − | "mouse" PS / 2.
| |
| − | | |
| − | For other types of mouse, the file
| |
| − | "/ usr / xwin / conf / xconfig" should be edited. If your "mouse"
| |
| − | for serial (COM1, COM2) or USB, move the two characters "#"
| |
| − | lines of its type "mouse" to the two lines of
| |
| − | "mouse" PS / 2.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Use the "dmesg" to check if, during loading
| |
| − | system, the "mouse" is being recognized.
| |
| − | | |
| − | 3. Implementation of server-mode 16 colors (4 bits).
| |
| − | Initially the configuration file
| |
| − | "/ usr / xwin / conf / xconfig" is ready to run
| |
| − | server on the standard VGA graphics mode, 16 colors and
| |
| − | resolution of 640x480 and 800x600. This method should work with
| |
| − | any video card, and will be its (only) option if your
| |
| − | plate has not succeed in attempts below.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Thus, simply typing the command "startx" (without having changed
| |
| − | the configuration file). The system starts with the bottom
| |
| − | Standard TROPIX, two windows "xterm", a clock and
| |
| − | selector of "desktops". In each window "xterm" is
| |
| − | run the interpreter of standard commands "sh".
| |
| − | | |
| − | To return to text mode, the simplest way is typing
| |
| − | <ctl-alt-bs> simultaneously.
| |
| − | | |
| − | This is the most basic mode of operation of the system
| |
| − | X-Window, if it does not work send us the files
| |
| − | "/ var / log / xwin / xserver.log" and "/ var / log / xwin / xclients.log"
| |
| − | to address in Chapter 1.
| |
| − | | |
| − | 4. Determination of the graphics card: Once in the operating mode
| |
| − | 16 colors, we can see if there is the possibility of
| |
| − | use a specific server for your graphics card.
| |
| − | This will provide the ability to use a wider range of

| − | | |
| − | colors, and other resolutions (800x600, 1024x768, 1280x1024,
| |
| − | ...).
| |
| − | | |
| − | Depending on your graphics card, you can edit the file
| |
| − | configuration "/ usr / xwin / conf / xconfig". If an ATI,
| |
| − | put in the comment lines:
| |
| − | | |
| − | Driver "SVGA"
| |
| − | Device "Generic VGA"
| |
| − | | |
| − | placing a "#" at the beginning of the line, and take the comment of
| |
| − | lines:
| |
| − | | |
| − | Driver "accel"
| |
| − | Device "ati"
| |
| − | | |
| − | Also, change the number of bits per color commenting on the
| |
| − | line:
| |
| − | | |
| − | DefaultColorDepth 4
| |
| − | | |
| − | and making the "#" one of the lines (try):
| |
| − | | |
| − | DefaultColorDepth 8
| |
| − | DefaultColorDepth 16
| |
| − | DefaultColorDepth 24
| |
| − | | |
| − | For each trial, and in graphical mode typing "startx",
| |
| − | and to return to text mode, press both
| |
| − | <ctl-alt-bs>. Get information of success / failure in
| |
| − | file "/ var / log / xwin / xserver.log.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The instructions are similar, if your card is an NVIDIA
| |
| − | TRIDENT or, using
| |
| − | | |
| − | Device "nv"
| |
| − | or
| |
| − | Device "trident"
| |
| − | | |
| − | 5. If your graphics card is not one of the above, or the
| |
| − | above attempts were unsuccessful, you can only (in
| |
| − | this version) how to use 16 colors (4 bits).
| |
| − | | |
| − | 6. To change the resolution, hit <ctl-alt-+> or <ctl-alt-->
| |
| − | ( "+" And "-" the numeric keypad).
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | Once running, you can try to change the number of colors and
| |
| − | the size of your "desktop". In case of not, send us the
| |

| − | As with the system in operation, we have (with the already mentioned
| |
| − | above), two windows "xterm", a clock and a selector of
| |
| − | "desktops".
| |
| − | | |
| − | The small window "xterm" is superior to the "console", and should not be

| |

| |
| − | | |
| − | To move a window, click and drag the button on the left of

| |
| − | | |
| − | To change the size of a window, click and drag the button to
| |

| |
| − | windows admit this).
| |
| − | | |
| − | To promote a window (ie, put it in front of others),
| |
| − | click the button in the left frame of the window. To demote it
| |
| − | (ie put it behind the other), click the button on the right
| |
| − | frame of the window. If you have a mouse, 3 buttons, you can
| |
| − | also promote a window with the middle mouse button.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The button on the left, clicked out of any window, presents a
| |
| − | "menu" of tools, plus the option to exit the graphics mode
| |
| − | (back to text mode). The button on the right, clicked off
| |
| − | any window, displays a list of active windows.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Everything that has been described so far is the "desktop" 0.
| |
| − | Clicking on another selector of "desktop" (on the bottom
| |
| − | right), you will have a new space for the creation of independent
| |
| − | windows. You have (in this configuration), 6 "desktops".

| |

| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | The source code is distributed TROPIX through 3 files
| |
| − | "kernel.tgz" (the core system), "lib.tgz" (the library) and
| |
| − | "cmd.tgz" (the tools). These are collections of compressed TAR
| |
| − | through the utility "gzip".
| |
| − | | |
| − | Once a collection "*. tgz" through a browser, should
| |
| − | decompress it. This can be done in several ways:
| |
| − | | |
| − | 1. If you stored the collection "*. tgz 'in a file system
| |
| − | DOS / Windows FAT16/32 and is installed with the TROPIX may
| |
| − | access it directly through the TROPIX, mounting the partition
| |
| − | with a command of the form
| |
| − | | |
| − | mount / dev/hda1 / mnt
| |
| − | | |
| − | Then unpack it with:
| |
| − | | |
| − | cd / mnt / ... (Directory TROPIX)
| |
| − | gunzip *. tgz (name of collection)
| |
| − | crease-ixv <*. tar (name of the collection obtained TAR)
| |
| − | rm *. tar (Remove the collection TAR)
| |
| − | | |
| − | 2. If your partition DOS / Windows is NTFS (as it is only of
| |
| − | reading), the above procedure should be performed after
| |
| − | copy the file "*. tgz" for a partition TROPIX.
| |
| − | | |
| − | 3. If you are using a UNIX system, you should use the
| |
| − | utility "gunzip" and "tar." Check the details in your
| |
| − | UNIX system.
| |
| − | | |
| − | 4. If you are only using Windows, you can decompress the collection
| |
| − | with the "Winzip" and read each of the programs through
| |
| − | of utilities "Notepad", "Wordpad" or "Word," among others.

| − | Below we give guidelines for compiling the various components of
| |
| − | distribution of source code TROPIX:
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | 1. NUCLEUS OF THE SYSTEM: Once the tree with the core installed
| |
| − | TROPIX in, you can compile the various modules that
| |
| − | part: "boot/boot0", "boot/boot1", "boot/boot2" and
| |
| − | "kernel".
| |
| − | | |
| − | In each of the directories is the "Makefile" to control
| |
| − | their compilation.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Note that in the "kernel" for the file "scbfile.v" that
| |
| − | contains parameters to configure your kernel in particular
| |
| − | (see "edscb" (cmd)).
| |
| − | | |
| − | 2. LIBRARIES: At the root of the tree is a "Makefile" for
| |
| − | compilation of all 4 libraries. If desired, you can
| |
| − | be compiled each one separately (going to the
| |
| − | corresponding directory).
| |
| − | | |
| − | 3. BUSINESS: At the root of the tree is a "Makefile" for
| |
| − | compilation of all utilities. If desired, may be
| |
| − | each separately compiled (going to the directory
| |

| − | | |
| − | The utility "vi" is the editor of texts "pattern" of schemes
| |
| − | operational philosophy of UNIX. This chapter will be given
| |
| − | short introduction to its use, enough to make changes
| |
| − | in the configuration files (which may be required)
| |
| − | during the installation of TROPIX.
| |
| − | | |
| − | More details can be seen (later with the system
| |
| − | on a regular basis), by "man vi" or "man-g
| |
| − | vi.
| |
| − | | |
| − | To edit a file (for example, the name "abc"), keyboard "vi
| |
| − | abc "and" vi "starts its operation showing the first
| |
| − | page file "abc" with the cursor on the first character of
| |
| − | first line.
| |
| − | | |
| − | We can then use the following commands (note that the cursor
| |
| − | indicates where the command will be executed):
| |
| − | | |
| − | <sp> Goes (the cursor from) a character on the line.
| |
| − | Back <bs> a character on the line.
| |
| − | "-" Back one line in the file.
| |
| − | <enter> Goes a line in the file.
| |
| − | <^ D> Go half a page in the file.
| |
| − | <^ U> Back half page in the file.
| |
| − | "1" Back to the top of the file.
| |
| − | "g" Goes to the end of the file.
| |
| − | | |
| − | i Inserts text before cursor (up to a <esc>).
| |
| − | "a" Inserts text after the cursor (up to a <esc>).
| |
| − | "the" creates new line and insert text (up to a <esc>).
| |
| − | "x" Remove the character indicated by the cursor.
| |
| − | "dd" Remove a line.
| |
| − | "yyp" Copy a row.
| |
| − | | |
| − | "/..." Search string "..."
| |
| − | n Find the next occurrence of the chain.
| |
| − | "N" Find the previous occurrence of string.
| |
| − | | |
| − | "." Repeats the last command for editing.
| |
| − | "u" Undo the last command for editing.
| |
| − | | |
| − | "w" Upgrade the.
| |
| − | "q" Get off the "vi" (only if the file is updated).
| |
| − | ": q!" Get the "vi" without updating the file.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Note that the file being edited ( "abc" in the case) will only be
| |
| − | updated when given the command "w". If you made
| |
| − | accidentally change any unwanted, we can leave the "vi"
| |
| − | with the command ": q!", saving the file to its original form.
