Hence kicad did not receive the desired love, and to be honest since I'm the maintainer of gEDA I was favouring gEDA. Generating footprint with gEDA is rather difficult for a beginner as gEDA footprint generation requires perl scripting. This has been a rather painful process for opensource users, hence kicad should at all cost not be removed from fedora . I spent 2 days compiling kicad's lastest sources, but in vain. No other distributions have updated their package since last year, since Kicad's development is rather windows oriented. Hence, I pull the sources from yesterday's svn and successfully built kicad after 10 hours. As you can see in the url below, I have revamped the entire spec file. 95% of the job has been done, except some little easy- to-fix glitches, which I need your help. http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewvc/rpms/kicad/devel/kicad.spec?view=diff&r1=text&tr1=1.16&r2=text&tr2=1.17&diff_format=h I've just committed the SRPM to rawhide, so that we don't forget kicad again.

I have already made the necessary changes to FEL's kickstart file. https://fedorahosted.org/spin-kickstarts/changeset/5138977598e9845f53efc8b10e853036e3268fa6 My tests were successful and I am pleased with it. == Reason for the switch == Simple, my laptop (only machine I have) struggles a lot with KDE4. I am a KDE user and even a KDE booth staff for CEBIT 2007 in Germany. If I personally cannot test and qualify the spin before the release, we can't ship it. == What does it mean for the Spin SIG == Nothing particularly as the dependency of the FEL spin is switched to the default Fedora Desktop kickstart. == What does it mean for the User == The users are the only one which will see the difference. But since Fedora Developers spent a lot of resources on the desktop livecd (+ the fedora features) compared to the KDE upstream project, FEL users will benefit with better power management, better boot time, better distribution integration and any items from the fedora feature list. == What does it mean for the spin maintainer ? == Nothing particularly. It is just a one-line change in FEL's ks. Since the dependency is heavily tested by the Fedora QA team, I can focus only on the goals/objectives of FEL. Since, FEL apps are added to comps, it is even easier for me to maintain the spin. https://fedorahosted.org/spin-kickstarts/browser/fedora-livedvd-electronic-lab.ks I am personnally affected by this switch, since I have never used Gnome before. However the objective is not about whether gnome or kde is good, how to focus on the electronic ASIC design methodologies which opensource software can provide. That said, desktop environments such as LXDE and XFCE are automatically discarded for FEL (at least for the next 2/3 fedora releases) since * Fedora XFCE spin's history shows it was either not ready for the official fedora release or not released * Fedora LXDE spin is new and the first official fedora board approved spin will most probably be for F-12. As a spin maintainer, I care a lot about the spin's dependencies. If the dependencies failed, FEL will not be released. I am sorry for any inconvenience that may cause you however if you want to help us, please have a look at this dynamic todo list: https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-electronic-lab/report/1 I want to thank RexDieter and KevinKofler for their tremendous help since the beginning. Rex worked hard on optimizing KDE before F-11 release, at that time I was already seriously considering the switch. Rex's optimization worked for me and thereby FEL 11 was KDE based. Kind regards, Chitlesh PS: Please do not consider this post as KDE bashing. Our Fedora KDE team are working very hard behind it.

I have created submenus on electronics-menu as you can see on this screenshot: http://chitlesh.fedorapeople.org/submenu/snapshot.png The idea is that the packager added the category "Electronics" to the desktop file and hence the electronics-menu automatically shift it to its appropriate submenu.

Any ideas.suggestions on how to improve the speed? Live CD/DVD is supposed to take time to boot even if you have a lot of RAM and a high speed processor. The whole OS is read from the DVD and loaded to RAM and then the OS runs from RAM. This reading and loading of data from DVD to RAM takes a lot of time as compared to loading an OS from hard disc since CD/DVD drive is slow device, about 10MBps (Hard disc can be as fast as 100 MBps or more) . So it is natural that it will take time to boot. Once the OS is loaded, it will run smoothly if you have more than 1 GB of RAM. If RAM is less than that, it will be a bit sluggish but will still run. P.S: You should not use the EDA tools in live mode because all your changes will be lost. It is better to install it on your hard disc and then use them. -- Regards Rangeen Basu Roy Chowdhury Fedora Ambassador sherry151 at gmail.com From aanjhan at gmail.com Wed Jul 15 07:53:31 2009 From: aanjhan at gmail.com (Aanjhan R) Date: Wed, 15 Jul 2009 09:53:31 +0200 Subject: [Fedora-electronic-lab] FEL In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: On Wed, Jul 15, 2009 at 7:32 AM, sandeep vijayakumar wrote: > Hi All, > ?? ?

Any ideas.suggestions on how to improve the speed? Depends on what you mean by slow. It takes about 3-4 minutes or so to get my desktop in Live Mode on a Core 2 duo 2Ghz, 1 GB RAM 800 Mhz fsb. So calculate depending on your configuration. Next, if you still feel the LiveDVD is taking too long, it could be because its currently KDE based and KDE4.x had some problems of long boot-up times (but was tweaked to restore sanity, according to what I have read). So the only other option you have is to install them on hard disk and switch to gnome or if you have bandwidth, Install a default fedora OS and then group install FEL. yum groupinstall 'Electronic Lab' HTH.
