Subject: [PATCH 1/2] trying to make two threading related tests more robust...
 (TODO the real solution would be to actively sync on termination)

 Running / Installing Lumiera Prototype
 ======================================

+Newbies Tutorials
+
+This page contains some tutorials for beginners that want to help to the
+developers of Lumiera.
+
+Trying the Lumiera GUI from Joel
+
+You need to have:
+
+  * libboost
+  * libtool
+  * git
+  * libgavl
+  * nobug(see below)
+
+For Ubuntu Hardy also:
+
+  * libglade2-dev
+  * libgdl-1-dev
+  * libgtkmm-2.4-dev
+  * libxv-dev
+
+also check http://gnuradio.org/trac/wiki/UbuntuInstall#InstallationOptions to
+see that all your installations options are met.
+
+Installing nobug from git
+
+Create a temp directory where you can have the sourcecode of the libraries you
+will use as well as lumieras branches you want to try. Example ~/temp. cd to
+that directory and run:
+
+git clone git://git.pipapo.org/nobug
+
+This will create a directory called nobug with sourcecode in your current
+directory.
+
+cd nobug
+autoreconf -i
+mkdir build
+cd build
+../configure
+make
+make install
+
+Getting the Lumiera source code
+
+In the temp directory
+
+git clone git://git.lumiera.org/LUMIERA
+cd LUMIERA
+autoreconf -fi
+mkdir build
+cd build
+../configure
+make
+
+maybe run the testsuite by
+
+make check
+
+This will take some time. After it has finished:
+
+./lumigui
+
+[NewbiesTut]
+
+Contibuting
+
+Nothing is easier, follow the basic instructions at http://www.kernel.org/pub/
+software/scm/git/docs/gittutorial.html, notably the
+
+$ git config --global user.name "Your Name Comes Here"
+$ git config --global user.email you@yourdomain.example.com
+
+parts.
+
+Then you are ready to go, you can edit and commit the lumiera code locally in
+your cloned repository. Please do small commits which fix/improve only one
+single thing and use meaningful commit messages. Check that you didn't broke
+anything
+
+  * by running 'make check'.
+
+Finally you can push your changes to the lumiera server to the 'mob'
+repository:
+
+$ git push git://git.lumiera.org/lumiera/mob master:refs/heads/YOURNAME
+
+This creates a new branch 'YOURNAME' on the mob repository. Then you notify the
+other devs on the mailinglist and they may merge your code into the mainline.
