- openArtist
- why?
- prove whats possible
- nothing like this exists
- why ubuntu?
- benefit from one of the biggest communities in the linux world
- many repositories so much less work for building it and keeping it up-to-date
- benefit from the ubuntustudio project
- most relevant packages are available very quickliy
- I knew and used it before
- and why not ubuntu studio?
- they say they focus on audio. I focus on everything available
- they do only scratch @ the surface
- try openArtist and you'll feel the difference
- why hardy?
- its very sad that ther isnt an ubuntu rolling release distro. If there were one, I would definely have taken that as basis. But hardy, first of all is LongTerm Supported. so a bit of benefit form there. And then there is the wonderful world of custom REPOS. and Getdeb. and debian and mint ... so without these tools, It would have been impossible for me, a one man project (until now), to build such a complex thing. Though I've compiled plenty of the packages, so there is still much work in that ;) If I would do the same thing form scratch, the possibility is quite high that I would start with a rolling distro like Arch.
- a LINUX operating system for artists
- based on Ubuntu Hardy, but also incorporates packages
from Intrepid, Jaunty, PureDyne, Debian, Mint, Rpm based
distros. Many selfmade packages, also some freeware is included.
- can be used as live cd or installed like a normal ubuntu

- Yofrankie
- an open source computer game by the Blender Institute
- based on the universe and characters of the open source film produced earlier in 2008 by the Blender Institute, Big Buck Bunny
- in the game, players assume the role of Frank, the sugar glider who was the antagonist of the film Big Buck Bunny. In the film, Frank and two cronies are seen killing butterflies and terrorizing a bunny. The film ends with the bunny exacting revenge on Frank, tying him to string and flying him as a kite.

- Forum
- features
- extensive Documentation
- a Mindmap where the central documentation lies. This mindmap is also the Webpage of the whole Project. I think that central documentation is the Key feature that is missing in other projects
- for ervery program, there is a little description, a screenshot, links to the homepage, direct links to the communications (mailing list, forum, irc ..), the online dcoumentation and tutorials of a program, there is also a link to youtube, and, if available, thre are links the offline dcoumentation which came with the program
- there is also some information about background technologies (e.g how the sound pipeline works in linux), links to blogs which are essential for a category of programs
- all the local documentation that came with the programs, is linked into /home/tux/Documentation. So one can browse everything available in one folder.
- the mindmap resides in the dropbox folder, so in someone adds some info, everyone else using OpenArtist will have the updated version
- the mindmap is also renderd to html, for those who prefer this
- All Programs (should) have extensive documetation if you browse over the Icon in the menue!
- CUSTOM BUILT MENUes
- with all the tools sorted logically.
- Control Center
- tools ordered by function
- as the standard ubuntu way to access system tools sucked, I recreated these as well.
- and as the tools were, say, just minimal or inefficient, I altered some of these, also
- Collaboration
- I created an own category for this. It's good to have all the tools in one place
- there are tools for managing content, collaborating over the net, take screenshots, spy wepages, make video tutorials
- Audio
- I took great effort to simplyfie the access to linux audio.
- In openArtist, there are mainly Jack and Alsa (also
pulseaudio, but its turned off by default)
- the jack-aware applications are started with jack.
- For every program that needs Jack to run (good),
qjackctl will start with that program, automatically
- When you close the program, you will also be
asked if you want to close jack.
- I provide a list of programs which MUST, CAN, and CANNOT
use jack, and which audio device is selected in the program
settings by default, in
- Audio -> control -> (Jack) Application Setup list
- helper scripts
- There are little helper scripts in Audio -> Control, which help you tracking audio conflicts and such. like the "check which programs user the sounddevice"
- script, the "kill all running jack instances" or the "reset alsa" script. I know you can do that all form commandline and more, but for new users this is more convenient.
- Then you have a script to inspect your audio hardware and settings, "soundhardware info". You get info about built-in hardware, usb, firewire and pcmica devices, also alsa and pulseaudio settings (which are a bit documented by the way).
- I divided the audio menu into some subcategories:
- plugins / synths racks:
- all the synths live there, also the ladspa, dssi, lv2 racks (jackrack and similar), patchage, the jost vst host, and some standalone tools like jackEQ, the tools form linuxdsp.co.uk. Bristol has custom launchers for every available synth.
- dj/live:
- (hopefully everything you need for live work are bundled here. I could have included the samplers /drummachines here,but I decided to put the inte main menu
- mixx, xwax, aquaduo (a custom script by my which glues two aqualung players (which have lasdspa plaugin support) together with jackEQ and timmachine for recording), freewheeling, loopdup, superlooper, terminatorx, seq24, tapeutape, tranches
- SoundCoding / experimental:
- all wirded sound conding and generation stuff is here.
programs that didint fit into annother category are found here, too
- SoundCoding / experimental: blue (csound based), algoscore (csound based), athenacl (python based algorythmic composing), pd, supercollider, AVsynthesis (soundbased, draw music), beast
- streaming:
- internet dj console, muse, darksnow, pd-based streamers form giss.tv
- stream your sounds to the net.
- analyze: jaaa, japa, sonic visualizer, sonorgam.
- more...: recorders, rippers, note editors, id3tag editors..
- the main audio folder holds the primary programs like audio players (aqualung audaicous2, amarok), daws and sequencers (ardour, lmms, rosegarden..), samplers and drumboxes (hydrogen, jackbeat, freecycle..) and the wave editors (traverso, sweep, audacity...)
- Video
- the video category features not only video editors, but also 2D animation apps, streaming tools, dvd tools, converters etc. (and custom launchers for blender VSE and compositor)
- VJ
- vj tools get their own menu, there are also custom launchers for some of the tools, as thay can be launched in multiple ways.
- some apps here depend on adobe's air, which will be installed by a script before the programs start
- 2D
- so many tools here, the category is maybe too big, but I think to works like that. I try to put the
tools which are used more often, outside of menus
- 3D
- a whole new category to build, none did this before. And again: many tools,all free. I am especially proud of integration of scripts for downloading and installing the lates versions of blender 2.5 and Makehuman. Also, the mapzone integration was quite a work. as this is a windows program and rund under wine, As i did not find any info about redistribution, this program is not installed by default, it will get downloaded before you can use it. thats also the cast for kerythea and indigo renderer, as these can definitely not be redistributed with linux.
- launcher comments used for quick documentation
- if you hover over a launcher in the menu, you will get MUCH more info about the Program
- also if a starter has at a special purpuse (e.g vlc an convert videos too , so I created a special starter for it), that info is displayed IN the launcher.
- Custom launch menu via quick-lounge-applet
- at left bootm of the screen, there is a custom launcher
applet, where you can but your favorite apps in
- EVERYTHING IS CONFIGURED
- The applications are not only installed: They are configured
- gimp is tuned and feeded with plugins, there are special versions, etc.
- mime types are carefully set to the programs who really work with them
- mimetypes for blender, freemind, bvh files, renderer files....
- editable help
- you can collaborate and wirte stuff you discover intto the mindmap.
- altering help also alters homepage!!
- when you click save, everyone who has openArtist installed will see the changes, and the homepage changes, too.
- custom scripts for non-redistributeable apps
- openArtist features a streamlined interface (gnomebased), with integrated mousegestures, custom menus, reorganized and extended system configuration tools, terminal-on-desktop integration (guake, ctrl+esc), dropbox for collaboration between artists, extended tooltips for the program lauchers, documentation for (nealry) every program, ordered by appearance in the menu structure (just look at the homepage, it IS the documentation, too)
- collaboration via dropbox
- A collaborative sharing using dropbox. Put news, new programs, new versions, new files or art released under creative commons which you want to be included to openartist into the dropbox -> news folder.
can also be used for documentation updates.
Everyone who runs OpenArtist will get this information instanly in their dropbox folder
- recent documents menu
- a custom recent menu in the panel, does not
support righhtlick->open with support though.
- Mousegestures
- mousegestures are integrated into openArtist
- activated with rightclick and drag.
- predefined gestures:
- up : copy
- down : paste
- left / right : back / forward
- fuzzy up right looks like " / " : maximize
- fuzzy down / : minimize
- fuzzy left up \ : Enter
- fuzzy left down \ : delete
- right down : start nautilus
- left down: delete
- down left: unmaximize window
- & much more.
- alter the settings by using ControlCenter > Easystroke oc click the easystroke icon (blue&green) in the tray area.
- Terminal-on-desktop
- press CTRL+ESC to call the guake terminal
- package Repostiory
- collected packages from all around the internet, tweaked them to run in openArtist
- 300+ packages, currently
- compiled 150+ programs myself and packad them
- openartisthq.org > Debian
- blender
- blender 2 kerkythea
- a special blender version that features kerkythea renderer controls inside blender
- own blender mimetype
- all available texture & sequence plugins compiled
- special launchers for Compositing and Video sequence Editor in VID menu
- custom scripts folder
- scripts folder is linked into dropbox
- this means that If on adds scripts to that folder, EVERYONE will have these Scripts in Their Scripts folder
- scripts for all render engines integrated
- scripts-2.42a and 2.45 folders also linked into dropbox
- massive blender focus.
- 5 versions of blender (2.49, 2.5 with automatic download script of graphicall daily build, 2.41, 2.45, publisher 2.2.5 for compatibility reasons and fun :-)
- integration into nautilus (own blender mimetype, open with 2.41, 2.45, control movies with blender:anim on rightclick), hidden blender folder in home directory for fast access to scripts folders of all versions and to sequence and texture plugins)
- collaborative blender scripts folder (symlinked into dropbox, drop a script there and all others will get it, too). many scripts installed (focus mainly on renderers integration until now, all render-related scripts appear in render menu now)
- renderers preinstalled for use with blender: yafray, yafaray, kerkythea, indigo (these two via download script, as they cannot be redistributed), aqusis, pixie, nvidia gelato, luxrender (beta and stable), sunflow, pantograph.
also, freestyle standalone and helios distributed renderer are available. which brings me to the next point:
- distributed rendering category: helios (distributed rendering with sunflow), drqueue (packed in custom scripts and with help to be user friendly), yadra, networkrender, farmerjoe. Also all online-tools which allow renderfarming with blender are there, with test accounts: Pgrade Grid portal, HGblender ranch, burp, open rendering environment, BOINC, then the commercial ones: greenButton, respower, pouwa client, deadline renderfarm.
- blender video sequence editor and composite editor launcher in VID cateory, with test project and little intro texts.
other interesting things:

there is also Sharpconstruct (standalone scuplter) and structuresynth (where you can code 3D objects)
- texture tools: Mapzone (via wine and a script for download), semicuro, cellule (for procedural textures)
- shaderman tools: sler, shaderman (via wine) and cutter
- plant generators: arbaro, Ivy, ngplant, and apparently, tree form curves.
- g3dviewer: previews all major 3d formats
- bvhplay: player for bvh motioncapture files.

- 4Different kernels
- original ubuntu hardy
- Jaunty 2.6.28
- puredyne Realtime kernel
- highram 2.6.27 kernel for supporting mor than 3GB of ram
- kernel rebuild script
- a kernel adapted to your CPU can be easily compiled with this script
- works only with standard hardy kernel by now
- openArtist is more up-to-date than Hardy & intrepid
- Always the newest working!! version
- I integrated all the programs that make sense for me. Maybe there are more, maybe something is missing. Tell me. Also, some alpha software is included, not much, though. I've also built quite a view packages myself, about 300
- Due to lack of time, I could not debianize everything. These programs reside in /opt. Also I do not fully agree the debian guidelines for packaging. Splitting up everything into subpackages... nah! but expect my packages to work. they're handcrafted.
- internal updates to Jaunty level
- latest ffmpeg
- kde4.2, qt 4.5
- Yes, I hacked kde 4.2 into Hardy. Don't expect to have a full kde environment, only the packages needed for running a handful of kde apps are included (digikam, e.g.)
- qt is on jauny basis, works flawlessly
- gcc 4.4
- not activated as default, though
- gstreamer
- libc6
- latest mplayer
- liblame
- & much more
- scipts to install non-redistributeable apps
- drawbacks
- i386 32 bit only (for the moment)
- some problems with nautilus (does not start after logout)
- lives crashes, dunno why
- goal
- combine everything what makes sense into one package
- mainly FLOSS software, but ALSO Freeware, Adobe AIR applications, Webapplications, Applications running through wine...
- be as bleeding edge as possible,
- make custom packages, if needed
- collect good Documentation and examples, test projects, important weblinks etc. to get you started as quick as possible
- Have already configured and finetuned system and applications
- collaborate to make it even better
- Programming
- Kommodo edit
- a free, open source editor from dynamic language experts. Komodo Edit is built on the Mozilla code base and is now licensed under the same terms as Firefox: Mozilla Public License (MPL), GNU General Public License (GPL), and GNU Lesser Public License (LGPL).
- Features:
- - support for for Perl, PHP, Python, Ruby, and Tcl, plus JavaScript, CSS, HTML, and XML, and template languages like RHTML, Template-Toolkit, HTML-Smarty and Django.
- - like autocomplete and calltips
- - multi-language file support
- Correct syntax coloring of multi-language files and templated files, common in many web programming frameworks. Add custom language support (User-Defined Languages or UDL, used to provide support for RHTML, Template-Toolkit, HTML-Mason, Smarty and Django).
- - syntax coloring and syntax checking
- Syntax checking
- Instant feedback for all fully-supported languages.
- Syntax coloring
- Spot errors easily and improve readability and context, even in multi-language files (unique to Komodo!).
- - Vi emulation, Emacs key bindings
- Modal Vi key bindings emulate navigation, text insertion and command behavior. Custom commands can be implemented by adding Komodo macros to a Vi Commands Toolbox folder.
- Emacs-like key binding scheme supports new editor features modeled on Emacs, such as transient marks (similar to the Emacs “mark ring”), repeat next command and reflow paragraph
- - Firefox-style extensibility
- features community extension plugins
- Standard editing features
- Code commenting, auto-indent and outdent, block selection, incremental search, reflow paragraph, join lines, enter next character as raw literal, repeat next keystroke and clean line endings on “save”.
- HTML preview
- Check HTML, XML and CSS files side-by-side or in a browser, using arbitrary files or URLs.
- Multilingual Input Method Editor (IME) support
- Use your standard keyboard to enter multi-byte characters, such as Simplified Chinese, Japanese and Korean.
- remote editing
- Code snippets
- Code folding
- Multi-document editing
- multiple tab groups, split view, and cross-document search.
- Project manager
- Tutorials
- Live Folders
- Project view displays the current contents of corresponding file system directory.
- Virtual Folders
- Explicitly maintained multi-purpose containers for any project or Toolbox component, containing pointers to selected components from different file system locations.
- Toolbox
- Store it
- Store virtually anything, including configurable “Run” commands, macros, code snippets, URLs, Live and Virtual Folders, templates, menus, toolbars and remote files.
- Share it
- Share a Toolbox with networked team members or distribute valuable Toolbox items to other Komodo users with the import/export function.
- XPI Extensions
- Create your own plug-ins. XPI extension support provides the same capability as Firefox, with all standard Mozilla APIs based on XUL, XBL, and XPCOM, plus our own for Python and JavaScript. We’re even using this in Komodo development; for example, when adding UDL-based languages and defining custom language syntax-coloring. Other new features, such as the DOM Viewer, are also extensions.
- Find in Project, Replace in Files, multi-line Find and Replace, regular expression searches, and a Find sub-system that properly handles Unicode-encoded files and skipping binary files.
- Extensible like firefox: you can get extensions for it to add on languages or other helpful features (like special characters).
- Background syntax checking and syntax coloring catch errors immediately, while AutoComplete and CallTips guide developers as they code.
- What makes this editor a really handy tool is its auto-completion capabilities.
- supports:
- * Ruby: require, class modules (on . and ::), class variables and methods, method calltips.
- * CSS, HTML, JavaScript, PERL, PHP, Python, Ruby, Tcl, XML and XSLT.
- * Write code faster and shorten the learning curve with code completion that guides you as you work.
- * Schema-based XML/HTML completion.
- * Multiple-language file support, such as CSS and JavaScript completion in HTML.
- * Support for adding third-party libraries.
- * Interpreter version differentiation of built-in and standard library information.
- code intelligence support allow you to Ctrl+click on a symbol to Go to Definition.however, this is a generic system where Ctrl+mouse-hover will underline interesting regions (hyperlinks) in your text for clicking on. The most common type of hyperlink is a symbol for “Go to Definition”. types of hyperlinks include:
- Colors in CSS (including CSS in HTML files):
- HTTP and FTP URLs:
- Regular expression mapping to an HTTP URL.
- generic handler to do whatever you can think of.
- Snippets: there is an abbreviations feature that inserts snippets from the Toolbox at the touch of a key; several useful default snippets are included, and additional snippets can be added easily.ts make komodo edit as powerful as textmate(mac only), and creating snippets is no rocket science
- Remote editing works like a breeze with support for a wide range of protocols like SCP, FTP, SFTP & more. Saving a file is not something which would cost you a minute or so, trust me it takes just 4-6 secs (worst case) to save a remote file.
- its also one of the best free XML editors available. It also includes a lot of great features for HTML and CSS development.
- * HTML validator
- * Accessibility validator
- * CSS validator
- * Color coding
- * Tag completion
- * Extended search and replace
- * Can edit JavaScript
- * Can edit CSS
- * Can edit PHP, ASP, or JSP
- * Spell checking
- Web template languages: RHTML, Template-Toolkit, HTML-Smarty and Django.

- The file tree rows can be selected and the correstponding files can be opened by double-clicking a row or by pressing the enter key.
- Komodo developer extension
- provides helper tools for working with JavaScript and Python inside of Komodo.
- Brief guide:
- * Once installed, access it through the Tools->Extension Developer menu

- wxglade & xCRed gui designers also
- ipython
- An enhanced interactive Python shell with many features for object introspection , system shell access, and its own special command system
- goal of IPython is to create a comprehensive environment for interactive and exploratory computing.
- IPython has two main components:
- * An enhanced interactive Python shell.
- * An architecture for interactive parallel computing.
- features:
- * Completion in the local namespace, by typing TAB at the prompt
- * Verbose and colored exception traceback printouts.
- See the magic xmode and xcolor functions for details (just type %magic).
- * Magic commands: type %magic for information on the magic subsystem.
- * System escape with !. Typing !ls will run 'ls' in the current directory.
- * System command aliases, via the %alias command or the ipythonrc config file.
- * Dynamic object information:
- Typing ?word or word? prints detailed information about an object. If certain strings in the object are too long (docstrings, code, etc.) they getsnipped in the center for brevity.
- Typing ??word or word?? gives access to the full information withoutsnipping long strings. Long strings are sent to the screen through the less pager if longer than the screen, printed otherwise.
- The ?/?? system gives access to the full source code for any object (if available), shows function prototypes and other useful information.
- * Logging of input with the ability to save and restore a working session.
- * Persistent command history across sessions (readline required).
- * The reload command does a 'deep' reload of a module: changes made to the module since you imported will actually be available without having to exit.
- * Access to the standard Python help. As of Python 2.1, a help system is available with access to object docstrings and the Python manuals. Simplytype 'help' (no quotes) to access it.
- wxipython
- A Gui that embbs a multithreaded IPython Shell
- an exprimental wxpython version of ipython
- has history function
- does not emulate all ipython features
- wxGlade
- Winpdp
- Python debugger
- supports debugging of threads- and curses based applications, namespace modification and embedded debugging. As a remote debugger, it uses (encrypted) network connections to connect to the debuggee (which is running on the same machine, ususally). Winpdb is the graphical, wx-based frontend to rpdb2, which is also included in this package. rpdb2 is text based and able to use screen sessions if there is no x-terminal-emulator avaiable. Winpdb is up to 20 times faster than pdb.

- Meld Diff Viewer
- a tool which allows the user to see the changes in, and merge between, either two files, two directories, or two files with a common ancestor.
- Amaya
- a Web editor, i.e. a tool used to create and update documents
- directly on the Web. Browsing features are seamlessly integrated with
- the editing and remote access features in a uniform environment.
- Amaya is based on the Thot toolkit developed at INRIA.
- * both browse and author Web pages
- create Web pages and upload them onto a server. Authors can create a document from scratch, they can browse the web and find the information they need, copy and paste it to their pages, and create links to other Web sites. All this is done in a straightforward and simple manner, and actions are performed in a single consistent environment. Editing and browsing functions are integrated seamlessly in a single tool.
- * maintains a consistent internal document model adhering to the DTD
- Amaya always represents the document internally in a structured way consistent with the Document Type Definition (DTD). A properly structured document enables other tools to further process the data safely.
- Amaya allows you to display the document structure at the same time as the formatted view, which is portrayed diagrammatically on the screen.
- * work on several documents at a time
- Several (X)HTML, native MathML (.htmll) and SVG (.svg) documents can be displayed and edited at a time.
- * helps authors create hypertext links
- The editor helps you create and text out links to other documents on the Web from the document you currently are working on. You can view the links and get a feel for how the information is interconnected. This feature is not limited to HTML anchors. With XLink, any MathML and SVG element can be a link too.
- * collaborative annotation application
- Annotations are external comments, notes, remarks that can be attached to any Web document or a selected part of the document.

- 16.7. new mirror@mkl, thanks to winfried.
- 09.7. mirror available, thanks, kirsty
- 29.6. rearranged shared blender Scripts folder
- as the blender scripts folder in openArtist is shared one, so that all users can collaborate in scripts, there were some troubles with putting scripts into it.
- - blender has a maximum amount of folders an folderDepth, in terms of script recognition, which was reached. so some scripts disappeared form the menus
- - moved the contents of mosiac folder to /home/tux/Dropbox/scripts and rearranged some others
- - integrated the Scripts_Catalog_Toolkit_2.49, many new scripts, which all should work now.
- - if you start adding scripts to the scripts folder, please stop dropbox first. Then put your scripts in, then start blender form command line with blender -d . Now you will propably get some error messages If a scripts already exists, or too many folders are in the scripts folder. please track that down before activating dropbox again.
- if you do not want a shared scripts folder, DONT DELETE THE CONTENTS OF DROPBOX FOLDER. Instead, deactivate (via "ControlCenter -> Startup apps& Sessions") or deinstall dropbox (via Synaptic e.g), or change the rights in blender folder to forbid writing there.
- - a naming scheme was set to get a better overview of what is installed. The scripts now have a prefix of the name of the menu they will appear (e.g export_).
- - recodeToAscii.sh was created to purge all non-Ascii characters from the scripts
- 27.6. deployed some fixes via openartist-news package

- copyleft
- openArtist
- respects the GPL and it also respects the copyrights and licenses of the proprietary software it distributes.
- doesn't include proprietary drivers. If it did, it would be legally wrong (because it would violate the GPL) or ethically wrong (if some dirty trick was used for the user to link the code to the kernel for instance). See "Readme After Install" on a fresh installed openArtist. It provides solutions to get these drivers.
- uses technologies that have been patented in some parts of the World. Most countries do not recognize the legitimacy of software patents so for most of our users this is not a problem. But if you're unlucky and you live in a country where software patents are legally enforcable, you need to wait for a light release without these components, which is planned in future.
- believes in open source and releases all its work with the corresponding source code. It owes a lot to the Free Software movement and to the GPL but also owes a lot to all the developers who contributed ideas and tools and who made software better and better throughout the years. Some of them released their source code as well and thus granted us more freedom and more flexibility. Others released their software with proprietary licenses and although this didn't give the freedom one would have liked, it still contributes to make software better. openArtist does not believe in boycotting Proprietary Software.
- all licenses are provided in the debian style, except for programs in /opt. There, the licenses are in the top folder of each program.
- mindmap is under cc
- contact
- Download

- INSERT will insert new nodes
- you can drag&drop nodes around
- drag&drop from webpages
- if you drag a link, it will insert a link
- if you drag a text, it will insert a text
- STRG+K lets you insert a link for a text
- ALT+K lets you insert a local link (a file, image...)
- F2 lets you edit a text
- ALT+ENTER lets you edit the text in a bigger, separate window
- you have also a context menue for that.
