Good news guys. My development box at work (Ubuntu 22.04) allowed me to build the DLL and load it successfully. So I've started afresh at home with a clean 22.04 install apt install wine apt install g++-mingw-w64-x86-64-win32 apt install git build-essential etc. I did get a small error when compiling (error _ASSERT not defined) - not sure why it compiled first time on the workstation at work but hey, pretty minor. For a quick fix, I just edited ACS_Source/scdatetime.h and included crtdbg.h Anyway, happy days. Makefile below as promised - adapt as necessary. # Compiler and flags CXX = x86_64-w64-mingw32-g++ CXXFLAGS = -march=x86-64 -mtune=x86-64 -O2 -shared -static -static-libgcc -static-libstdc++ -s -fexceptions -w INCLUDES = -I../../ACS_Source/ -I/usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/include # Source and target SRC = button_studies.cpp TARGET_DIR = ../../Data TARGET = $(TARGET_DIR)/button_studies.dll # Default target all: $(TARGET) # Build target $(TARGET): $(SRC) $(CXX) $(CXXFLAGS) $(INCLUDES) $< -o $@ # Clean target clean: rm -f $(TARGET) .PHONY: all clean |

Hello Linux Thread I am going to read the 30 pages of this thread to find a starting point. I want to install Linux on a older laptop that currently has Windows 10. Going down the rabbit hole, just want to eventually find a way out... Is there a list of exactly what is needed to do this? More than these 3 things? Wine 9.12 Mint Linux 21.3/Cinnamon desktop Kernel 6.5.0-35 generic Thanks for any help, and things to avoid. I know just enough to be dangerous. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2024-08-24 23:20:30

Hi all, after years of using customized Debian on Sierra I switched to CachyOS. CachyOS is a Linux distribution based on Arch Linux. It focuses on speed and security optimisations - the default Linux kernel is heavily optimised using the BORE (Burst-Oriented Response Enhancer) scheduler, while the desktop packages are compiled with LTO, x86-64-v3 and x86-64-v4, Zen 4 optimization, security flags and performance improvements. No problem so far and I don't need to solve constant issues with NVIDIA drivers / latest kernel. If distro is good for gamers then why don't use it on trading. Kernel: Linux 6.10.8-1-cachyos-rt-bore Packages: 1161 (pacman) Shell: fish 3.7.1 Display: 3840x2160 @ 60 Hz * Display: 2560x1440 @ 60 Hz in 27] DE: Xfce4 4.18 CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 5950X (32) @ 6.73 GHz GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti Lite Ha] Memory: 3.20 GiB / 62.70 GiB (5%) Swap: 256.00 KiB / 62.70 GiB (0%) Disk (/): 102.21 GiB / 913.83 GiB (11%) -4 Wine 9.16 SC ver. 2674 |

Thanks User42554, Wonder which desktop are you using? I am trying to do a test drive, and only saw KDE, didn't go too far because it failed to detect Wi-Fi (10-year old iMac). I do found though Manjaro (Xfce) is noticeably faster and smoother than Linux Mint, but unfortunately they don't have Cinnamon, which is my favorite desktop. |

@d9e5c763 Thank you..was having an issue with the updater hanging (it's working ok now) but this is helpful! Other than the updater hanging...I've not had any new issues.

I did see the below link...I'm soooo thankful Linux is working so well! I started this thread a few years ago EXACTLY because of this kind of MS nonsense. Microsoft Windows Is Truly Garbage. An Abomination. Software That is Woke and Insane |
