HOWTO: Maya 6.5 under Hoary (Revised)
发表于 ： 2005-08-12 10:59
This is a tutorial to install the 3d graphics application Alias Maya 6.5 from the .rmp files you get on the cd if you purchase it. You should copy these to your hard drive, preferably to your home folder.
This install was made in Ubuntu Hoary 386 with the 2.6.10 kernel. I have no idea if it will work on other systems.
1. Maya needs the C shell program "csh" so you need to apt-get it.
Code:
sudo apt-get install csh
2. Install the program Alien to convert your maya .rmp files to .deb.
Code:
sudo apt-get install alien
3. Use "alien -iv xxx.rpm": (i for install, v for verbose). Replace the x'es with the correct numbers of your packages.
Code:
alien -iv AWCommon-server-6.3-x.xxxx.rpm alien -iv AWCommon-6.3-x.xxxx.rpm alien -iv Maya6_5-x.x-xxx.xxxx.rpm
4. Create the following links:
Code:
sudo ln -s /usr/aw /aw cd /usr/aw/maya6.5/lib sudo ln -s libawcsprt.so.1 libawcsprt.so sudo ln -s libpcwxml.so.1 libpcwxml.so
5. Maya wants to use the directory /usr/tmp/ for storing temporary files.
Code:
sudo mkdir /usr/tmp sudo chmod 777 /usr/tmp
6. You will need to create a directory for storing the license file (usually called aw.dat), then copy the file to it.
Code:
sudo mkdir /var/flexlm
"cd" to the directory where you put your "aw.dat", then:
Code:
sudo mv aw.dat /var/flexlm
7. Run the license install script "installKey" in /usr/aw/COM/bin/ (you can do this in your window browser, in Gnome - Nautilus). Point it to /var/flexlm/aw.dat.
8. Type "/aw/maya6.5/bin/Maya6.5" to start, or use Smeg to create a shortcut in the Gnome panel.
9. As you probably will want to use the "Alt-key+mouse button" combination to pan and rotate in your viewport, open System/Preferences/Windows in the upper Gnome panel and change the Movement Key to Control or Super.
You also need to have graphics drivers (and card) with openGL support, but the drivers you get with Ubuntu will probably work. Otherwise, check the Ubuntu howtos for how to install your driver.
Good Luck!
