-	The Linux Foundation developer team put together the following image for demonstration during the Linux Foundation keynote address at the GENIVI conference on May 19.  It is based on MeeGo 0.9 and has the SGX drivers built-in. Also preinstalled are the XFCE-Desktop, QT demo applications and 3D SGX demos (/usr/bin/SGX).  Just download and write the image to a sdcard (>4GB). This image runs on revision B5 up to C1D/C4 boards.  Enjoy!	+

How to use the webinterface

Welcome to the MeeGo OBS webinterface guide. We'll show you how you can login and use the webinterface being hosted at build.meego.com . This includes login, creation of the personal home: project, monitoring and creating a simple package using the webinterface.

Please note: you'll need an account to access the build service server.
See this page on the progress of the Community Builder.

Startpage and Login

Open your favourite browser and navigate to https://build.meego.com. You'll be directed to the startpage.

To proceed, you'll need to login and authenticate with your username and your password. Either enter the data in the upper right corner or click on the login button in the middle.

After successful authentication, you'll end up on the startpage again - with new options visible. We'll go through most of them in detail, but first lets create your home: in the next step.

Create your home: project

Every developer has his home:<userid> project where he has write access by default. This is like your personal project or dashboard where you can experiment and play. But first you need to enter some lines to describe your home project. Click on the link "Home Project" on the left side and answer the questions.

Now your redirected to your home: . It will be empty for now, but as you see in the picture below, you can add packages containing the sources/build reciepes and projects which are the containers for the build targets. As you can see, you're the default maintainer which grants you full write access to this project. You're also the bugowner of your project.

My Projects, Server Status

Lets leave for now your home: for a bit and explore the build service. Click on "My Projects" on the upper left side. This opens a page listing your watched projects and your involvements in projects or packages.

Now lets visit the main monitor page by clicking on "Server Status". You see here the status of the services, some graphs and graphics showing the currently running and completed jobs an the overall load.

Summary and next steps

This guide gave an introduction on how to login, setup your home: and how to reach "My Projects" and the "Server Status" pages. Now its time to create your own package and build it. Click here to open the 2nd part.
