    2929The ariba framework is currently available for Linux, therefor, the plugin is also Linux-based. As soon as further platforms are available it will be announced here.

    31 A quick and simple way for testing and using the plugin (besides compilation) is the use of precompiled libraries, which we provide. In this section we describe how to set up an ''Ubuntu 9.10 or 10.04'' for this purpose. This should be adoptable to other Linux distributions easily. Instructions how to compile the plugin are provided in the Developers Guide below.
    32 
    33 For running the AribaMC plugin a number of packages are required on the target system. For the precompiled binaries of Ariba and MCPO you need the exact versios of the libraries, if you compile by yourself use the newest available.

    46 {{{
    47 export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$HOME/aribalibs

    101101While the GUI only provides limited configuration capabilities, you can use a configuration file that allows for more fine-grained configuration. The configuration file can only be loaded when using VLC with the command line. Setting the configuration file is currently different on sender and receiver side. For setting the config file of the sender use
    102102{{{
    103 vlc --plugin-path=$HOME/vlclibs --sout-aribamc-config-file ./config.txt
     103vlc --plugin-path=$HOME/AribaMC_VLC_32/vlclibs --sout-aribamc-config-file ./config.txt
    104104}}}
    105105and for the receiver side use
    106106{{{
    107 vlc --plugin-path=$HOME/vlclibs --config-file ./config.txt
     107vlc --plugin-path=$HOME/AribaMC_VLC_32/vlclibs --config-file ./config.txt
