== Manual installation of python matplotlib on CentOS ==

We had some problems installing python matplotlib and had to install it manually.
The required packages were:
* freetype-2.4.9
* libpng-1.5.10
''When installing on 64bit machine we had to use the following cmd:''
 CC="gcc ${BUILD64}" ./configure --prefix=/usr --libdir=/usr/lib64 && make clean && make && make install
* numpy-1.6.2
* matplotlib-1.1.0

At the end, we had to create directory .matplotlib
 mkdir /var/www/.matplotlib
 chmod 755 /var/www/.matplotlib

== Installation of gcc packages on Ubuntu 11.x and 12.x ==

You need to have the following package installed:
* apt-get install gcc-multilib

And then add to your .profile
 if [-z "$LIBRARY_PATH"] then 
  export LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
 else
  export LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu:$LIBRARY_PATH
 fi

== Using Intel vTune with cM on Linux under root ==

If Intel vTune needs root access for hardware counters, users may need to start cM as root, i.e.

 su
 cm_start_web.sh

All requests from the web to cM will go as root.

== Alias/directory names in cMind ==

We strongly suggest not to use ! in directory names at least on Windows. Some scripts use 'Setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion' that consider ! as a expanded variable.
