HelloOpenBoard is a free and open-source interactive whiteboard software compatible with any projector and pointing device.
It was originally forked from Open-Sankoré in 2013 with the intention to focus on simplicity and stability. Since version 1.3 it is using the more recent QT 5 framework instead of QT version 4.
History
OpenBoard is a fork of the project based on Open-Sankoré 2,0. Open-Sankoré itself is based on the Uniboard software originally developed at the University of Lausanne (UL), Switzerland. The software started to be developed in 2003 and was first used by the instructors of the UL in October 2003. The project was later spun off to a local startup company, Mnemis SA. It was subsequently sold to the French Public Interest Grouping for Digital Education in Africa (GIP ENA) which bought the intellectual property of the software in order to make it an open source project under the GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL).
I am new to porteus and very impressed about the speed of starting a pc and launching a browser.
I work as a system administrator at a germen school an we use several different interactive whiteboards
with different operating systems and different whiteboard software.
I would like to use openboard as a standard on all whiteboards and I would like to use porteus as the operating system.
Just instead of launching a browser I would like to launch openboard.
That would be great to have a running whiteboard system within a couple of seconds.
I only find openboard ubuntu packages.
As I am a ubuntu user I checked the latest and it is working fine, but how can I install this to porteus.
Just dep2tgz works, but openboard does not start due to missing shared libs.
Is there a short way I just can't see as a ubuntu user?
Thanks for your help!
