Installing PyMol is quite straightforward.
Fedora Core Linux (x86)
PyMOL RPMs are available for Fedora Core 1 & 2, provided by Morten Kjeldgaard. These can be manually downloaded by browsing from:
http://apt.bioxray.dk/
Alternatively, PyMOL can be installed using Yum (an automated package installer and updater, installed by default in Fedora). This can be done by adding the following lines to your /etc/yum.conf file:
[xray] name=MOKs RPM Repository fedora $releasever - $basearch - xray baseurl=http://apt.bioxray.dk/fedora/$releasever/$basearch/xray
And then issuing the following command as root:
yum install pymol
Gentoo Linux (x86)
as root:
emerge pymol
be sure to have the proper OpenGL configuration. For example:
opengl-update ati opengl-update nvidia
list of available versions of pymol for gentoo
SuSe
32-bit (x86)
64-bit (x86_64)
64-bit Python install is quite easy. Make sure your nvidia driver is installed (or ATI, but I have no experience there).
To install PyMol
- Ensure your system has it's distutils in place and ready to use. Try the following check:
from distutils import *
- Download the source
- Download [Pmw] from [SourceForge].
- To install Pmw, just decompress it and then move the base director "Pwm" to /usr/lib64/python2.3/site-packages/. You can test that it's there by testing the import, see below:
import * from Pmw
If errors erupt, investigate.
- decompress the source and cd into the PyMol directory that was just decompressed.
- If upgrading see below.
- Now enter the following...
python setup.py build
sudo python setup.py install
sudo python setup2.py
- The sudo commands will need a root password or someone with sudo capabilities.
I also copy the 'pymol.com' file to /usr/local/bin or /usr/bin -- somewhere in my path:
sudo cp ./pymol.com /usr/local/bin
You should now have a working PyMol install.
pymol.com should now run your new PyMol install.
- Caveats
- NVidia card
- Kernel Source
- ATI card
- Pmw
- NVidia card
RPM
Download the appropriate RPM and use 'rpm' to install it. Typically,
rpm -Uvh rpmFileName.rpm
From Source
DistUtils
assuming you already have your PyMol source tree untar'ed simply do:
python setup.py build python setup.py install # need to be root, here python setup2.py sudo cp ./pymol.com /usr/local/bin/pymol.com # cp the executable to /usr/local/bin
Now you can run PyMol from anywhere by issuing the command:
pymol.com
Compiling By Hand
Copy the appropriate setup/Rules.XXX file to the base PyMol dir. You'll have to edit the file for your system. Then run 'make'.
