[Gambas-user] finally gambas on my debianbox!

[Premoli, Roberto [ITPPG/1010]]

hello there,
Finally it works!

Up to me, instructions on gamba site ARE NOT clear enough, or, perhaps
I am not smart enough to understand them so as writer supposed it will.

first off all, it is not necessary to use UNSTABLE tree, the STABLE is
enough.

Well, here how I did, perhaps it will be usefull for other debian users, and
cam be putted on gambasite.

1. install linux from scretch with 6 floppy or bootcd.
2. dont use tasksel of dselect, just skip them
3. from command line, install with x-window-system (apt-get install
x-window-system)
4. chage your /etc/apt/source.list with ONLY these two rows: 
	deb http://www.linex.org/sources/linex/debian/ woody linex
	deb http://security.debian.org/ stable/updates main contrib non-free

5. give 
	apt-get update
	apt-get upgrade
	apt-get install gambas
	apt-get-install kdebase

6. reboot the debianbox.

7. start as user or root as you want, go into kde, then from command line,
run gamba.

8. enjoy gambas!

Btw, the gambas version installed with this way is 0.91.

All in all, I want to thank all people that answered to my question about
gambas,
and, beware, cos now I have gambas on, so I will start to post questions and
questions :-)

I will try soon to do some ports of my software from MVB to gambas.

Have fun with gambas, Microsoft Visual Basic can starts to forgot me, yeah!
