Notes on the OpenDX Debian packages
===================================

The complexity of OpenDX usually gives a rough start to the beginner. If
you feel lost, make sure to install package 'dx-doc', and have a go through
the tutorial therein. Package 'dxsamples' comes with a vast collection of
example networks and configurations, and is worth a look even for the
experienced user.

By default, OpenDX comes with its own, built-in help system. It doesn't
require additional software, but is unable to display images. If you
have a graphical web browser installed, I strongly recommend setting
environment variable DX_WEB_BROWSER to point to the browser. In bash, for
example, you'd do something like

	export DX_WEB_BROWSER=/usr/bin/x-www-browser

Have fun!
