Can anybody point to an easy way to install Raptor as an alternative menu? I have tried the instructions at http://www.raptor-menu.org/download but cannot get them to work.

Re: Raptor
I've tried apt-get'ing build-essentials automake and cmake and can't get it to install either. Right now the system is looking for qmake

Re: Raptor
after some searching I stumbled into http://www.nabble.com/qdbusxml2cpp-td15372404.html
but when I commented the line
cmake did find Qt..Code:#FIND_PACKAGE(Qt4 REQUIRED)
then asks me about setting some variables
any help?Code:sameh@sameh-desktop:~/raptormenu/build$ cmake ../ -- Found Qt-Version 4.4.0 (using /usr/share/qt4/bin/qmake) -- Found X11: /usr/lib/libX11.so -- Found KDE 4.0 include dir: /usr/lib/kde4/include -- Found KDE 4 library dir: /usr/lib/kde4/lib -- Found KDE4 kconfig_compiler preprocessor: /usr/lib/kde4/bin/kconfig_compiler -- Found KDE4 automoc: /usr/lib/kde4/bin/kde4automoc CMake Error: This project requires some variables to be set, and cmake can not find them. Please set the following variables: QT_QTOPENGL_INCLUDE_DIR (ADVANCED) QT_QTOPENGL_LIBRARY (ADVANCED) -- Configuring done

Re: Raptor
Common... someone's got to have a clear idea on how to get this installed and working.
I brag about this community all the time.. has my praise been misplaced!?!?!

Re: Raptor
Obviously not, I guess I can wait for either Raptor and/or Lancelot to appear in the official repositoriesOriginally posted by Bongo5HHCommon... someone's got to have a clear idea on how to get this installed and working. I brag about this community all the time.. has my praise been misplaced!?!?!

OK, this is all you get for now, we redoing some stuff so don't complain;-)
I too have been very interested in the raptor menu. I have googled many places, and the only leads i get are this post. however, after shooting in the dark with alot of hit and miss, i was able to compile raptor, all to get just a black little box with the "OK, this is all you get for now, we are redoing some stuff so don't complain;-)" dissapointing, but i promise i'm not complaining. I'm running Kubuntu 8.04 KDE4 remix with the latest KDE 4.1 Beta 2.
As far as i can recall, in adept/synaptic/whatever package manager you use, you will need to search for the following,
kdebase and kdelibs 4.whatever-the-latest-is, developement versions as well
cmake
make
automake
(i think it's something to do with auto completing)
perl(you should already have this)
composite(this search will bring up several results, down them all)
I know you will need all of those to get it to work, i might be leaving something out, but you will be able to do it yourself if you just look at the output. Here is the correct commands that you will need to enter in the terminal.
svn co svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/playground/base/raptormenu/
cd raptormenu
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ../
make
make install
raptormenubinThis appears to be a menu editor for raptor, it lets you add apps and menus, it too, does not function.tom-editor
On a positive note however, i believe that the raptor menu is a good concept and look foward to seeing it in KDE 4.2

Re: Raptor
You gotta compile Qt4.4 too and that really is a pain in the ass, and then you gotta tell it that you have Qt4.4 else he will always use the old version :s
I managed to compile raptormenu but it wasn't easy and then you saw the famous line
OK, this is all you get for now, we are redoing some stuff so don't complain;-)
So maybe wait until it's ready to use

Re: Raptor
