ok two parts - are both needed? which part(s) do what. brief instructions would be helpful here. like

if you want studio - install what?

just abrief note....somewhere? anywhere.

--- here you go:

If you are installing from...

* debian packages:

Studio depends on Station, and Station depends on Libs. So if you want Studio, you need all 3 deb packages. Apt-get knows this, so 'apt-get install livesupport-studio' will install the other two packages, too. (Though I don't know if we have an official apt-get repository. Sebastian?)


* Live CD:

You will be prompted about which packages you want to install. It is possible to install Studio only, without Station, but then Station needs to be available on another computer, and you need to manually enter its IP address and port number in the configuration file /opt/livesupport/gLiveSupport.xml. Or possibly the installer prompts for this too? Michael Aschauer or Akos would know.


* tarball:

All three parts get installed with 'make install'; the procedure takes a long time, and may be intimidating at first, but it is described in detail at
https://www.campware.org/projects/livesupport/file/tags/livesupport-1.0.2/livesupport/doc/install.html?format=raw
(you can substitute another version number for '1.0.2').
