claudinei@109 68 <h3>SliTaz Panel</h3>
claudinei@109 69 <p>
claudinei@109 70 From spring 2011 the new way (and tool) to configure the system is TazPanel.
claudinei@109 71 It is a CGI/web interface with a themable user interface from where you
claudinei@109 72 can control your entire system, this includes package management, adding or
claudinei@109 73 removing users, creating Live systems and much more. Each page provides
claudinei@109 74 a small description to help you manage your SliTaz system. To access the
claudinei@109 75 panel you can use the menu entry in "System Tools" or this url:

claudinei@109 79 </p>
claudinei@109 80
claudinei@109 81 <a name="network"></a>
claudinei@109 82 <h3>Network connections</h3>
claudinei@109 83 <p>
claudinei@109 84 Click on the "Network Status Monitor" at the bottom right of the screen, then
claudinei@109 85 "Configure" and the network manager (netbox) will come up. You can then
claudinei@109 86 go to the "DHCP" tab and click "Start", and Slitaz will send a DHCP request
claudinei@109 87 to the local router. You may also setup a static IP, PPPoE, PPP, VPN and
claudinei@109 88 other networking options by using their respective tabs. To configure a wireless
claudinei@109 89 connection, you can use SliTaz wifibox by clicking "Wireless Manager" in the
claudinei@109 90 Network Manager or by using the "System Tools" menu entry -> "Wireless networks
claudinei@109 91 connections".
claudinei@109 92 </p>
claudinei@109 93 <p>
claudinei@109 94 More detailed information can be found in the Handbook:

claudinei@109 100 <h3>Applications</h3>
claudinei@109 101 <p>
claudinei@109 102 To have a list of all graphical applications, you can use the SliTaz menu button
claudinei@109 103 at the bottom left of the screen. To have a list of command line tools, you
claudinei@109 104 can open a terminal and double press on the tabulation button. And to have
claudinei@109 105 a list of all installed packages, you can launch the package manager user interface
claudinei@109 106 from the Lxpanel icon or by using the "System Tools" menu entry. To install any new packages,
claudinei@109 107 you must have a network connection, the DVD of packages or an USB storage device
claudinei@109 108 containing any downloaded packages. Naturally any package management
claudinei@109 109 can also be done from the command line and <code>tazpkg</code>.
claudinei@109 110 </p>

claudinei@109 113 <h3>Office suite</h3>
claudinei@109 114 <p>
claudinei@109 115 The SliTaz packages database provides some lightweight office applications.
claudinei@109 116 All of these packages are easily installable in a few clicks through the packages
claudinei@109 117 manager. SliTaz also provides a simple way to install the powerful
claudinei@109 118 OpenOffice suite: just search for "OpenOffice" in the packages manager, double click
claudinei@109 119 on "get-OpenOffice3" and install the script with the <code>Auto exec</code> option
claudinei@109 120 enabled.
claudinei@109 121 </p>
claudinei@109 122 <p>
claudinei@109 123 To have a lightweight office suite: just use Abiword as the Word processor, Gnumeric as a
claudinei@109 124 Spreadsheet and Homebank for Bank Accounting.
claudinei@109 125 </p>

claudinei@109 127 <a name="multimedia"></a>
claudinei@109 128 <h3>Multimedia</h3>
claudinei@109 129 <p>
claudinei@109 130 Most SliTaz flavors include a wide range of sound card drivers, a volume
claudinei@109 131 mixer and a light audio player to easily listen to any MP3 or OGG files. The Sound
claudinei@109 132 card is autodetected at boot time and audio support works out-of-the-box
claudinei@109 133 on many systems. If you manually add a new user and can't listen to audio, please
claudinei@109 134 check that the user belongs to the <code>audio</code> group. For any other trouble, please
claudinei@109 135 check the full documentation and/or use the forum.
claudinei@109 136 </p>
claudinei@109 137 <p>
claudinei@109 138 Videos can be watched by installing one single package or using a dedicated
claudinei@109 139 LiveCD or LiveUSB system. The SliTaz team have packaged some of the best video players
claudinei@109 140 available under GNU/Linux: <code>mplayer</code>, <code>xine-ui</code> and <code>vlc</code>.

claudinei@109 143 <a name="info"></a>
claudinei@109 144 <h3>System information</h3>
claudinei@109 145 <p>
claudinei@109 146 You can get information on your system by clicking on "System information"
claudinei@109 147 in the System Tools menu, then "Summary". Clicking on the other
claudinei@109 148 buttons offers you more information, and using the benchmarks can
claudinei@109 149 give you an idea on how fast your computer is. To have a list and control
claudinei@109 150 of all your current processes, you can use the "Task Manager".
claudinei@109 151 </p>

claudinei@109 153 <a name="root"></a>
claudinei@109 154 <h3>Becoming Root</h3>
claudinei@109 155 <p>
claudinei@109 156 By default, Slitaz doesn't have its desktop running as root administrator:
claudinei@109 157 it asks for a root password (default <code>root</code>) for any superuser work.
claudinei@109 158 Therefore, it is safer and more secure. To become root in an xterm, simply
claudinei@109 159 type <code>su</code> and enter the root password.
claudinei@109 160 </p>

claudinei@109 162 <a name="install"></a>
claudinei@109 163 <h3>Installation</h3>
claudinei@109 164 <p>
claudinei@109 165 SliTaz can be installed to a hard disk or on an USB mass storage device using the
claudinei@109 166 "SliTaz Installer" from the "System Tools" menu. The installer makes a full HD install.
claudinei@109 167 SliTaz won't function in memory (RAM) anymore like in Live or Frugal mode and
claudinei@109 168 everything is persistent.
claudinei@109 169 </p>
claudinei@109 170 <p>
claudinei@109 171 To generate a LiveUSB system, you can use the "Tazusb LiveUSB Tool" from the "System Tools"
claudinei@109 172 menu or <code>tazusb</code> from the command line. More information can be found in the SliTaz
claudinei@109 173 Handbook: <a href="http://doc.slitaz.org/en:handbook:liveusb">LiveUSB media</a>
