January 14, 201214 yr Hello guys,my current configuration is: a desktop PC where FSX is running & a laptop PC in a network, both running Windows 7.I would like to switch my laptop from W7 to Linux but I don't know if some addons like ASE, FsInn, FsCommander or others will run on it.For some reasons I woulod prefer running addons like those on a different PC where FSX is running.Anyone of you have already tried or know how to build that?Many thanks. I hope for a positive feedback.Bye. Capt. RICCARDO RIGHETTIProud customer of the PMDG 737NGX and PMDG 777X (wating for next... PMDG 747 v2 - Queen of Skies) --- Follow me on my Website and Flickr
January 14, 201214 yr You would need to run the add-ons under a limux Windows emulator.I have no idea how good the emulators are.Edit (after Jim's post below): I would think you would be better-off with a dual-boot PC.Cheers,- jahman. Edited January 14, 201214 yr by jahman
January 14, 201214 yr And for ASE the Windows emulator would need to be able to run .NET and be able to install 3 FSX SDKs to get SimConnect installed on the laptop.
February 5, 201214 yr Author Edit (after Jim's post below): I would think you would be better-off with a dual-boot PC.Hello, negative, dual boot is not in my mind. I only have Linux on my notebook, no more Windows as main OS.One (more) solution would be using virtualbox but I cannot use my original OEM Vista license on that (based on my knowledge).So, it seems a pretty bad "cul de sac".Nobody tried Wine and ASE or others?Thanks.
