Hi Niklas :)

You can try with VM or Wine on Linux, but I think it will not work.
You need FSX too. FSX running on Linux with Wine.

Tell us your experiance with Linux and JeeHell ;)

Hi Chris,

My FSX runs on Windows 7. The Problem is I want to work with Rasberry Pi. And there I can only run JeeHell. So I mean I want to have it in a network. Only for using of one MCDU.

The next problem is I havn't this Rasberry with Linux, so I can't test it.

Do you have 2. PC with linux?

I use Thinclient HP ( used one eb..y 8,-€) for Linux... ( 2GB Ram, 40GB HDD) runs fine...

Something to test for you...small and cheap ;)

Sounds nice. Well, I wanted only to use one PC with Linux, but for the second MCDU I would like to use the second.

What is with the ThinclientHP? What do I Need for this?

ThinClient is a very small PC without ventilation.Quiet. Very low energy consuming. It has VGA,Network,PS2,USB,Sound...
Look at e....y for it...you can put HDD into...so you can use lowcost no noise pc, very small pc.
I like it as test pc...

Hi,

I haven't tested so far, but I think it is possible my software works with Wine on linux.
It is not tested, and it won't be supported by me any further than this little comment...
If I find the time and a linux distro somewhere, I'll try it...

Cool,
but I think a simulated OS is always a handicap ;)
I try by my self too on test linux pc...

I looked up some prices for the HP thinclient and they come up to around ~400 USD...can't you buy a full blown computer at that price?

I am consideration purchasing a Bay Trail PC tablet -- you can run Windows 8.x on the system and also connect it to an LCD.

I agree proprietary software is always the best... That's why I do not support Linux OS when my apps are made for windows.

I just tried with Virtualbox and ubuntu:
- The network connection works
- The non OpenGL apps seem to work correctly
- The OpenGL app (PFD/NFD/EWD/SD/MCDU) do not run.
- I believe opengl support under virtual machins is not good. That could be the reason. But I cannot say 100% for sure it will work on a physical machine with OpenGl working on it...

As an alternative I suggest you all try the Steam in-home streaming option :)

Steam is available for Linux and it allows you to stream programs from your Windows PC...I will try and beta test and let you guys know how it goes.

In Germany it coast about 10 to 20€, but you must buy a better RAM.

You can buy used one very cheap, than upgrade RAM and take out flash and use a USB Stick as Flash. Look for USB Stick with SSD technic, it is better performent.
On my cheap Thin 8,- Euros from HP I insert 2GB Ram from old Notebook and 16GB USB-Stick , I run xp and linux from stick. I run FSMap on it, connected wireless to my FSX-PC.

Have you tried running any jeehell programs? I will look around. Cheers.

[Niklas]

Yes, I tought I read it anywhere... XP must be ok
