If you have custom installation, building from the source is the recommended
|
|
|
|
|
way to make sure it is linked with the libraries available on your machine.

How to build and install the CINNAMON packages using these scripts:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Clone the Git repo or download a tarball/zip of the repo.

|
|
|
Master branch is recommended if you are using current and it's always tracking
|
|
|
|
|
the latest release of Cinnamon project. If you are using stable version of Slackware,
|
|
|
|
|
please use a branch matching your Slackware version; eg. 14.2.

|
|
|
If you wish to run an automated build script, please use the 'build-cinnamon.sh'
|
|
|
|
|
in the root directory which will build and install all the cinnamon packages
|
|
|
|
|
including the necessary dependencies.
|
|
|
|
|
NOTE: In certain cases, the automated build script *may* failed.
|
|
|
|
|
Some known issues are documented in KNOWN_ISSUES.

|

|
|

to select the cinnamon session. Run startx to start Cinnamon Desktop.
