Version 3.0 and later of the GTK+ toolkit is required and might require a system update. It is available at <a href="http://www.gtk.org" target="_blank">http://www.gtk.org</a>.</p> 25 26<p>You can install the emulator in two ways:</p> 27 28<ul> 29<li>Launch <em><code>teo-1.8.4-i586.deb</code></em>.</li> 30<li>Unzip <em><code>teo-1.8.4-i586.tar.gz</code></em>. The executable is named <em><code>teo</code></em>.</li> 31</ul> 32 33<h5>Launching<a name="launching"></a></h5> 34 35<p>The launch of <em><code>Teo</code></em> will be done by clicking the icon of Teo. If you right-click on it, you can choose between simply launching it, or launching it with a hard reset.</p> 36 37<h5>Keyboard<a name="keyboard"></a></h5> 38 39<p>If the ALTGR key doesn't do anything, have a look at you keyboard layout with respect to the third level chooser: <em><code>Keyboard layout/Options/</code></em> from 'System Parameters' to choose 3rd level options.</p> 40 41<p>If your keyboard is other than AZERTY, you have access to the French keyboard by using the following procedure :</p> 42 43<ul> 44<li>Quit Teo</li> 45<li>Launch <span style="background-color:#e8e8e8;padding-left:4px;padding-right:4px;padding-top:1px;padding-bottom:1px;">setxkbmap fr</span> in a Terminal</li> 46<li>Launch Teo again</li> 47</ul> 48 49<p>The only problem is that during the time the French keyboard is enabled, it will be for all applications. To go back to your natural keyboard, simply run <em><code>setxkbmap <your_keyboard_layout></code></em>... or restart Linux.</p> 50 51<h5>Sound generator<a name="sound"></a></h5> 52 53<p>Teo uses the default sound device (via ALSA).</p> 54 55<h5>Activating disk direct access on new Linux systems<a name="direct"></a></h5> 56 57<p>On new Linux systems, floppy drives are not activated at installation.
