    Hi again Andy, my question is how / where to insert the "version" command, and what to expect from doing so. Definitely a newbie question. I guess that would allow me to revert back or keep track... 3 weeks ago you may recall my SUCCESSFUL install of 26a over a fresh Cinnamon 22, It resides in the middle of a triple-boot GMKtec Nucbox G3 Mini PC with the 12th Gen Intel Alder Lake N100. (16GB ram and 1TB SSD). (Win11, Cinnamon 22, DragonOS Focal). I haven't checked every app yet. and want to be confident...

    There is a typo in the last line below: Install the AHRL files thus: * sudo -i * cd /usr/local * tar xzvf /root/ahrl_VER.tar.gz (again, replacing VER with the actual version information) This last line should read tar xzvf /root/andy_VER.tar.gz (not tar xzvf /root/ahrl_VER.tar.gz) My install was successful without a single hitch. Best to you holmzie n2exg

    Hi Andy! NEWS FLASH I kept getting the same error as before... and I finally found a typo in "GETTING STARTED" ... [Install the AHRL files thus: [ * sudo -i [ * cd /usr/local [ * tar xzvf /root/ahrl_VER.tar.gz (again, replacing VER with the actual version information) The last line pointing to the downloaded file in /root should read: [ * tar xzvf /root/andy_v26.tar.gz That's the file we moved into /root, (not ahrl). That being said, Whooh Baby! Fasten you seatbelt boys and girls. That install is...

    Andy, I'm dumb-as-a stump. As Johnathan describes, thouth I've been doing linux 10 yrs now, but no confidence how Tar gz install works, and moving extracted file to a proper directory . I need more of a step-by-step instruction? I know it's obvious to an experienced person, but not me. Internet "examples" don't help. I did install xosview no problem. Thank you for your help, I am trying this on a fresh Linux Mint 22 Cinnamon install. from your instructions: "Download the file from Sourceforge: *...

    Andy, I'm dumb-as-a stump. Like Johanthan above,. Doing linux 10 yrs now, but no confidence how Tar gz install works, and moving extracted file to a proper directory . I need more of a step-by-step instruction? I know it's to an experienced person, but not me. Internet "examples" don't help. I did install xosview no problem. Thank you for your help, from your instructions: "Download the file from Sourceforge: * ahrl_VER.tar.gz * copy this to some convenient directory I did this, convenient directory...

    Hey Steve, Had the same problem. I follow Andy's hard work, most impressive! But I am a Linux Mint man, and in fact, I just upgraded to Linux Mint 19.1 (from 18.3) and was THEN successful loading WSJT-X v2.0.0. Your problem is because Andy's current distribution is Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, Fear not! Andy is busy prepairing an update to the current Ubuntu 18.04 LTS "Bionic" which has all the dependencies. Otherwise you would have to compile from source (Tar.gz?) which is something I haven't done yet...didn't...

If this is because Andy's distribution may be Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, I am sure Andy is busy prepairing an update. The current Ubuntu 18.04 LTS "Bionic" has all the dependencies.
