I built myself a brand new PC and relegated the old one to playing with Linux. After I did I was offered a small raise and the System Admin duties.įast forward to the mid 90s, when Linux first came out. I think the engineers were taking bets on whether I, a 'simple R&D tech' would succeed or not. I joined SUG (Sun Users Group) and downloaded their public domain source code tape and built a SunOS 4.0.3 tape set I had the license for. About 6 months later I won $5000 in the state lotto, so I rebuilt the 2/100 into a full SUN2 Tower w/keyboard. In the mid 80s I was given a SUN 2/100 workstation that my company was tossing. I want to share my personal experience on AT&T/BSD Unix conversions, however. I'm not disagreeing with you, just taking a more positive outlook here.

and 2 are available on the old ftblauncher(agrarian skies and crash landing) so until the ftblauncher is replace there still has a way to play it on Linux without much hassle Įveryone will agree that the zip download sucks to both the pack manager(that has to make an extra effort to post it) and the players(If you don't have a small experience building your own small pack you may not know how to install it, and if people have problem on how to install it they may simply forget it or think Linux is bad when in reality ftb and Curse are the ones not supporting Linux).

2(from jaded) has support to Linux trough zip.

1 has the server files and mention of Linux support trough zip, although he has already several updates that Linux users can't enjoy because said zip is not available.

2 have the server download(that can be used to provide some kind of Linux support by the users manually) but no mention of Linux.

3 have no mention off Linux support or Server download.Until now nothing has been said about how the 'Linux solution' will be and the curse launcher already has several packs only posted there that Linux users cannot use in a official way.įrom the top 10 packs on Popularity on Curse: Hopes and 'I have inside information that I cannot say and may mean nothing' or what people think about is kind of pointless. Just to point a few things, let's skip any speculation, and talk only about published facts. So Is there any new regarding support for Linux when the migration for the Curse Launcher arrives? It's been a long time and nothing has been said.
