Live CD's
Before we scare you away by saying cinelerra only runs on X-based operating systems only (i.e. NOT MS Windows), it is possible to try cinelerra out without modifying your computer. This is possible through the use of Live CDs. Here are some of the Live CD's known to contain cinelerra
- AVLinux - based on Debian, with LXDE by default and an optional XFCE
- ArtistX - based on Ubuntu Intrepid, Gnome or KDE, for multimedia
- dyne:bolic - for multimedia production -uses Window Maker window manager
- Elive - debian based live CD using Enlightenment window manager
- x-evian - Debian based live CD for multimedia creations
- MediainLinux - Knoppix based live CD

Gentoo
Installation for Gentoo GNU/Linux is very straight forward. Simply type:
emerge cinelerra
as root and it should install and run without any problems.
Note that you may need to put cinelerra in your `/etc/portage/package.keywords' file in order to unmask it:
echo "media-video/cinelerra ~x86" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords
See the Handbook for details.
More informations can be found in the Manual.
Fedora
Cinelerra is not available in the default Fedora repositories.
Cinelerra is included in the Freshrpms repository but the package collection of Freshrpms may conflict with other third-party repositories such as Livna.
Cinelerra is available also in the kwizart repository that, on the contrary, is compatible with Livna.
Fedora 9
To install Cinelerra from kwizart repository (x86 and x86_64) do:
su -
rpm -ivh http://rpm.livna.org/livna-release-9.rpm
rpm -ivh http://rpms.kwizart.net/kwizart-release-9.rpm
yum install cinelerra --enablerepo=kwizart
Tips:
1 - This package tweaks the kernel.shmmax value in /etc/sysctl.conf so there is no need for you to modify it.
2 - This version points to the system fonts path in /usr/share/fonts (instead of /usr/lib(64)/cinelerra/fonts).
This is needed for the title plugin. It needs fonts.dir (which is usually deprecated) to be regenerated.
You can do:
yum install ttmkfdir xorg-x11-font-utils
and then in each subdirectories of /usr/share/fonts that you want to be seen by the title plugin, so for example:
cd /usr/share/fonts/
ttmkfdir && mkfontdir
Fedora 8
To install Cinelerra from kwizart repository (x86 and x86_64) do:
su -
rpm -ivh http://rpms.kwizart.net/kwizart-release-8.rpm
yum install cinelerra --enablerepo=kwizart
Tips:
1 - This package tweaks the kernel.shmmax value in /etc/sysctl.conf so there is no need for you to modify it.
2 - The fonts tweak for Fedora 9 is not available for Fedora 8. You need to copy your fonts to /usr/lib(64)/cinelerra/fonts and regenerate fonts.dir.
Fedora 5, 6 and 7
The easiest way to install packages from Freshrpms is to include the repository in the yum configuration.
Also make sure that the Fedora Extras repository is enabled. This is the case by default on Fedora 5 and 6, and Core and Extras are merged into one since Fedora 7.
On Fedora 6, as the user root do:
rpm -ivh http://ftp.freshrpms.net/pub/freshrpms/fedora/linux/6/freshrpms-release/freshrpms-release-1.1-1.fc.noarch.rpm
On Fedora 5, do:
rpm -ivh http://ftp.freshrpms.net/pub/freshrpms/fedora/linux/5/freshrpms-release/freshrpms-release-1.1-1.fc.noarch.rpm
Then type:
yum -y install cinelerra
