Instructions for using your Flikr account to populate the photos used in LMCE 710's screensaver. I ran the following from a terminal on the Core.

First, upgrade gem:

sudo apt-get install rubygems
wget http:// rubyforge.org/frs/download.php/45905/rubygems-1.3.1.tgz
tar xvzf rubygems-1.3.1.tgz
cd rubygems-1.3.1
sudo ruby setup.rb
sudo rm /usr/bin/gem
sudo ln /usr/bin/gem1.8 /usr/bin/gem

Then install commandline

sudo gem install commandline

Grab flickrfetchr and install

sudo wget http:// rubyforge.org/frs/download.php/40044/flickrfetchr-0.1.0.tgz
tar xvf flickrfetchr-0.1.0.tgz
cd flickrfetchr
./setup-linuxmce
