cd pvb

If you want to use binary packages (RPM or DEB) for installation then goto the openSUSE buildservice and search for "pvbrowser" for your distribution (Search Options must not check "Exclude user's home projects"). For installation you must become super user (root) and type the following command:

On openSUSE/Fedora/Mandrake:

rpm -Uvh pvbrowser-devel#version#.rpm

On Debian/Ubuntu:

dpkg --install pvbrowser-devel#version#.deb

Windows

You can install from install-pvbrowser.exe .

For developing your servers you have to install Qt4 + MinGW. During installation of Qt you are asked if you want to install MinGW also.

If you want to start pvserver as service in the background, use xyntservice
