I also discovered that the latest freecad AppImage won't run correctly with an old appimagelauncher installed. It gives a cryptic error message about fuse running out of memory. Fortunately I search through the forums eventually clued me in that it was appimagelauncher's fault. Updating to the latest version fixed it, although not before a bunch of dead ends trying to update fuse, etc.

Maybe appimagelauncher isn't worth the trouble?

@aho , thank you very much for your help with #csharp and #VScode and #Ubunutu and #apt ...

Your time, as mine, on the clock, is the same. Being summer and you being more north and little more east, I guess, your daylight starts earlier. It is gray morning here. Raining. And I am enjoying a coffee.

Let us make a step back and consider what I am trying to do.

(I think we have discussed before the possibility of having our conversation hybrid: Finnish Czech. I may remember, you did not like the idea then.)

A student who is close to me and who uses Ubuntu is required to pass a test on a school computer: #Microsoft - #Windows - #VisualStudio - C# . I don't like what the school requires from them, but here we are.

So, I have been trying to create an enviroment on their (and in parallel on mine) computer to prepare for the test. After more than ten hours, no success. The student borrowed a Windows computer and prepares for the test on it. The situation is solved for the moment and is not fully solved for the future. The course continues.

I am heading to the conclusion that, in general, it is better to have access to a Windows computer for this and other tasks which somehow suppose that Windows is a standard, to use this computer for such dirty work, and not to try to make a Linux machine to do whatever Windows machine may be doing.

Any thoughts on this? @aho , or anybody?

Konečně tu máme oficiální https://repo.multiflexi.eu/

Na rozdíl od svého předchůdce do kterého se nový balíček přidal po každém pushi do gitu, obsahuje nový repozitář pouze stabilní verze balíčků, tj. ty které byly ozkoušeny a zreleasovány.

Stávající http://repo.vitexsoftware.com/ tedy nyní začne plnit "testing" roli.

Pořádné rozdělení testovacího a produkčního prostředí je jedním ze základů stability produkovaného software a měl bych se stydět, že mi to trvalo tak dlouho se k tomu dokopat.

Je to další důležitý krok k oficiálnímu vydání #MultiFlexi 2.0

jehož hlavním přínosem bude že už mi konečně začne vydělávat nějaký prachy :D

Sometimes I think Snap creates more problems than it solves

A crash of one Snap app sometimes takes all the others with it, and sometimes the entire system. That, or something will update so the running process is detached from the menu bar.

Is it just me?

I thought for sure I'd be futzing with settings and drivers until at least Tuesday before I'd get to put my headset on and dive in, but surprisingly I got #ALVR running with little work with on #AMD gpu on #Ubunutu 24.04.

The "view desktop" option just didn't work, neither did the up next screen, but I was able to explore the base I've been building in #NoMansSky and walk around the black cat in #VRChat for a few minutes (before vrc crashed).

Linux Lite 6.6 released. It is a major update to this lightweight OS leveraging the Xfce desktop environment, based on Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS (Jammy Jellyfish).

Yep, the base is critical.

I guess all I was conveying is that once you find a suitable base, unless you have good cause there's not really anything to drive you to move to something else.
You get used to how that base operates, its packaging & update processes, configuration, etc.

If you start with a .deb based distro, moving to another .deb based one is relatively painless. Moving to say .rpm or Arch is different, sometimes extremely different. Linux experience is needed before making those sorts of leaps of change.

There's a good reason the likes of #Ubuntu and #Mint are popular as they bring people into the #Linux ecosystem with a relatively painless transition for common use cases.

But #Mint is based on #Ubunutu, and that in turn is based on #Debian. They add their own changes to make them easier to use.

A few years ago I would suggest any new user of #Linux use one of them. I'm not so sure I'd still say that as #Debian has come on a lot in the last few releases.
