Linux

Hello,
I've been using your program for a while now, and I find it very good.
However, I have recently switched from Windows to Linux (Ubuntu), where Solar accounts doesn't seem to work.

Would you have a suitable version?

Many thanks

Arianna

Hello Arianna,

Unfortunately our software does not support Linux. The only operating systems we support are Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7.

Regards,

Java is the same on ubuntu/windows - you can invoke jar files, but I gave it a go and don't know why it fails to load the main class (sorry, Java is as much a mystery to me as any other over-complicated virtual environment).

Can the developers get a ubuntu CD and give it a go, you may find it a lot easier than you think... I'm afraid I'm not much interested in running windows in a VM.

Hi Brendan,

Although Solar Accounts is mainly written in Java, it uses some Windows-specific features. We have no plans to produce a Linux version - sorry.

Regards,
