PS forgot the 'e' in paste. ;-) Jim -----Original Message----- From: dba-tech-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:dba-tech-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Jim Lawrence Sent: Saturday, January 19, 2013 6:20 PM To: 'Discussion of Hardware and Software issues' Subject: Re: [dba-Tech] Ubuntu thin client The two applications, Node.js and Ruby on Rails are mostly full server based products and real men, Linux IT people, don't use GUIs, sorry to say, so to install the two applications follow the instructions. In the unlikely event that you run into issues Hans knows everything. ;-) To install Node.js Open a command terminal window Dash home > Terminal As soon as you enter any command session with sudo... you will be prompted for your administrators username and password. Open Firefox, (I like Chrome so I always installed it right away) shown at the left and go to the following site: http://www.naumann.cc/?p=312 Note: you will have to compile node.js so it will run more reliably. Then follow the instructions; just cut and past the shown commands in the order they are given. How to install Ruby on Rails Just like Node.js it is all a manual installation process. If it was more popular on the desktop edition of Ubuntu it would be in the "Ubuntu software center" and have an easy script already but such are Linux programmers who have to (like to) do everything the hard way. ;-) https://www.digitalocean.com/community/articles/how-to-install-ruby-on-rails -on-ubuntu-12-04-lts-precise-pangolin-with-rvm HTH Jim -----Original Message----- From: dba-tech-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:dba-tech-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Salakhetdinov Shamil Sent: Saturday, January 19, 2013 3:46 PM To: Discussion of Hardware and Software issues Subject: Re: [dba-Tech] Ubuntu thin client Thank you, Hans -- Maybe in the (near) future I will have a look at node.js and Ruby on Rails. Currently I can't find how I can get them installed via Ubuntu Software Center (and I have just got successfully installed Mono Runtime and MonoDevelop). But I can't find node.js and Ruby on Rails via Ubuntu Software Center. Should I use some other ways to get them installed?
