|
paul@104
|
71 From spring 2011 the new way (and tool) to configure the system is TazPanel.
|
pankso@102
|
72 It is a CGI/web interface with a themable user interface from where you
|
paul@107
|
73 can control your entire system, this includes package management, adding or
|
paul@104
|
74 removing users, creating Live systems and much more. Each page provides
|
paul@104
|
75 a small description to help you manage your SliTaz system. To access the
|
pankso@102
|
76 panel you can use the menu entry in "System Tools" or this url:

107 <h3>Applications</h3>
|
pankso@38
|
108 <p>
|
paul@97
|
109 To have a list of all graphical applications, you can use the SliTaz menu button
|
paul@97
|
110 at the bottom left of the screen. To have a list of command line tools, you
|
Christian@112
|
111 can open a terminal and double press on the tabulation button. Tazpanel provides
|
Christian@112
|
112 a nice GUI for package management through the
|
Christian@112
|
113 <a href="http://tazpanel:82/pkgs.cgi">Packages</a> tab. To retrieve a list of all
|
Christian@112

|
115 <a href="http://tazpanel:82/pkgs.cgi?list">My Packages</a> page. To install new

|
116 packages, you must have a network connection, the DVD of packages or a USB storage
|
Christian@112
|
117 device containing any downloaded packages. Naturally any package management
|
Christian@112
|
118 can also be done from the command line using <code>tazpkg</code>.

|
132 To have a lightweight office suite: just use Abiword as the Word processor, Gnumeric as a
|
pankso@38
|
133 Spreadsheet and Homebank for Bank Accounting.

|
pankso@44
|
138 <p>
|
pankso@44
|
139 Most SliTaz flavors include a wide range of sound card drivers, a volume
|
paul@45
|
140 mixer and a light audio player to easily listen to any MP3 or OGG files. The Sound
|
paul@45
|
141 card is autodetected at boot time and audio support works out-of-the-box
|
paul@45
|
142 on many systems. If you manually add a new user and can't listen to audio, please
|
paul@96
|
143 check that the user belongs to the <code>audio</code> group. For any other trouble, please
|
paul@94
|
144 check the full documentation and/or use the forum.

147 Videos can be watched by installing one single package or using a dedicated
|
paul@45
|
148 LiveCD or LiveUSB system. The SliTaz team have packaged some of the best video players
|
paul@96
|
149 available under GNU/Linux: <code>mplayer</code>, <code>xine-ui</code> and <code>vlc</code>.

153 <h3>System information</h3>
|
pankso@38
|
154 <p>
|
pankso@38
|
155 You can get information on your system by clicking on "System information"
|
paul@52
|
156 in the System Tools menu, then "Summary". Clicking on the other
|
paul@96
|
157 buttons offers you more information, and using the benchmarks can
|
paul@94
|
158 give you an idea on how fast your computer is. To have a list and control
|
paul@118
|
159 of all your current processes, you can use the "Task Manager" available in
|
paul@118
|
160 the same menu.

164 <h3>Becoming Root</h3>
|
pankso@38
|
165 <p>
|
paul@40
|
166 By default, Slitaz doesn't have its desktop running as root administrator:
|
paul@51
|
167 it asks for a root password (default <code>root</code>) for any superuser work.
|
pankso@38
|
168 Therefore, it is safer and more secure. To become root in an xterm, simply
|
Christian@115
|
169 type <code>su</code> and enter the root password. To run a graphical application
|
Christian@115
|
170 as root, use <code>subox</code>. For example, to run leafpad as root you
|
Christian@115
|
171 would run <code>subox leafpad</code>.

175 <h3>Installation</h3>
|
pankso@38
|
176 <p>
|
paul@40
|
177 SliTaz can be installed to a hard disk or on an USB mass storage device using the
|
Christian@116
|
178 <a href="http://tazpanel:82/installer.cgi">SliTaz Installer</a> in Tazpanel. The installer makes a full HD install.
|
paul@96
|
179 SliTaz won't function in memory (RAM) anymore like in Live or Frugal mode and
|
paul@41
|
180 everything is persistent.

|
pankso@38

|
paul@97
|
183 To generate a LiveUSB system, you can use the "Tazusb LiveUSB Tool" from the "System Tools"
|
paul@40
|
184 menu or <code>tazusb</code> from the command line. More information can be found in the SliTaz
