Installing FuzeMeeting on OpenSuse 13 64-bit

First, get an account on their website (fuze.com).

Install dependencies which the RPM install will miss.

zypper install gconf2 gconf2-branding-openSUSE

zypper install libjpeg62*


Get the RedHat RPM here:

http://yum.fuzebox.com/yum/el/6/release/x86_64/

I used ' fuzelinuxclient-1.0.12.el6_x86_64.el6.rpm '


Install with zypper install ' fuzelinuxclient-1.0.12.el6_x86_64.el6.rpm '

Tell zypper to ignore the warning about 'gconf2' (we installed it above)


Now create links to the files which fuze needs:

ln -s /usr/lib64/libssl.so /usr/lib64/libssl.so.10

ln -s /usr/lib64/libcrypto.so /usr/lib64/libcrypto.so.10


Now create links to the files which fuze refuses to find in its own directory, even if you add it to your PATH:
- Fuze wants these files in "/usr/lib64/" and will look nowhere else.

soft-link ALL *so* files in /usr/lib/fuzebox to /usr/lib64/

------------

start it by running in a terminal:

/usr/lib/fuzebox/FuzeLinuxApp


Log in via the prompts (which you set up before the install, above).

The first time you start a meeting, it may crash on setting up audio. Restarting will resume the meeting, and bring up the audio-settings box. I have not tried to use the built-in audio, preferring to use another voice-conference app.

It crashed again on "share screen", but on reboot, shared the screen fine and didn't crash again.

-----------

Good Luck, and feel free to correct any obtuse methods and suggest more suitable fixes.
