Easy way to add SMART Gallery to SMART Notebook?

[CM786]

Hi guys,

I have recently gone into a school where they have SMART Notebook on all networked PCs, but they don't have the gallery content installed. I have copied the gallery content to a network share and then by adding the "\admin" switch to the Smart Notebook shortcut I have gone in as admin and added the Gallery content in. This works great.

I have done all the PCs in the IT Suite in this way and was just wondering if their was a easier way to specify the path to the gallery, maybe a .reg entry that could be put in a script etc..? They will need the same doing in the classrooms too and the second IT Suite.

I have set \\dc1\smartgallery as the path to the machines I have done manually.

Please help save my fingers! :P

Thanks

had a quick look in the registry dont know if these are any help

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\Products\DCC0179C09A254544B9BE125F5BB1959\Insta llProperties

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Uninstall\{C9710CCD-2A90-4545-B4B9-1E525FBB9195}

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\SMART Technologies Inc.\Gallery\TeamContent\gallery.smarttech.com

Have you tried searching the registry affter you have run the admin install for the new gallery location?

Download the gallery as a separate file from the smart website then install onto your server.
Look at the admin guide (also on the smart website) and it will tell you the command lines you can use. To make it run from the network, I use:

"\\server\Installer Files\System\SMART Essentials 1\SMART Essentials For Educators\Gallery setup.exe" --register -remote /destination "\\server\Program Files\System\SMART Essentials 1\"

to make it copy the content to the local PC I use:

"\\server\Installer Files\System\SMART Essentials 1\SMART Essentials For Educators\Gallery Setup.exe" --installall -allowdownload /destination "C:\Program Files\SMART Board Software\Essentials for Educators"

I use WIWW to make a MSI wrapper to run the commands then deploy using active directory.
