I never met Art, but enjoyed his courses and even purchased his APCD tutorial, even though I never used it! Sad to hear of his passing.

Yeah, I've had a few minor software issues with MX - probably due to my history with Windows more than anything! When I was looking for a Linux distro to try, I thought I needed 32-bit (that was what every version of Windows that ever was installed on the laptop), and I wanted with with low overhead...

Des, I've followed your notes while trying to adapt them to my MX Linux 23.4 (bookworm) distro. Aside from a few minor differences, the procedure is the same. I had to install a GUI for Wine/Winetricks, since MX linux didn't have one be default. I chose zenity, since it was the first one suggested (...

I also noted that our long-time fellow Linkster Armond was involved too...if you have local talent ya might as well! :thumbup: :thumbup: Hi Armond-it's been a while...the hair isn't growing back the way it used to! :whistle: How about you? :cheers1: I'm not sure that I was really involved that much...

That's great work, Des. I sort of gave up on Links and Linux - partly due to interest and partly due to such old, decrepit hardware (I had to take one laptop apart and heat up/re-flow the graphics chip again else the display wouldn't work at all). I am planning on a new computer soon, so I'll look f...

It was always my goal to play all of the available courses. It was partly why I created my course spreadsheet. As of now, I'm only updated with courses released to the middle of October but not counting older versions of courses, I've played less than 25% of the released courses. Real life (aka work...

Daniel, I don't have Win11 yet, but I'm guessing my new computer (not yet ordered, but soon!) will have it. I don't know much about the Sandbox, but is it similar to a Virtual Machine (VM)? If not, I'm thinking a VM might be possible to get Links and APCD running under Windows 11, if they don't run ...

Sage, I'm not sure how tech savvy you are or if you have someone around who could help if you need it, but I've been dabbling with a Virtual Machine (VM) on my Linux installation to be able to get Links to run. Early days suggest it might be promising. If it's something you want to look into for APC...

I have given up on Wine and explored VMs (Virtual Machines) running under Linux. My MX Linux distro/repo has VirtualBox, so I installed that and used a WinXP iso that I found online. I was able to install Links no problem, and it seems to run. I haven't installed any courses to try, because I get a ...
