Found the club website and Gerry’s list email address, but it’s all on the same domain name so likely he might not get the email I sent to him.

Ah, yes, there is that power thing. I've got a 3.2 ghz P4 PC
(already running Linux) that I hardly use because it heats up the
room too much, deferring to a Core2 something-or-other that's twice
the speed, twice the memory, and half the power, and up all the time
because it's running my iGate.

Whatever machine you use, the "more troublesome as up-time increases" is going to be the rule for Windows, no matter what version of Windows it is. I made the switch to Linux years ago because of this, and moved my non-computer-geek wife's computer to Linux as well after one particularly annoying virus hit it. So, it can be done. My favorite Distro is OpenSuSE, currently version 13.1. The biggest advantage is that all of the system configuration tools are organized into one place ("YAST2"), and the KDE desktop is very easy for a Windows user to get used to. I believe Version 13.1 is supposed to be a "long term support" distro, so you should have years of troublefree service from it. You can certainly do well with a new(er) PC - perhaps just a new motherboard - but I'd still recommend putting Linux on it. Greg KO6TH 'Fred Hillhouse Jr'

Re: APRSIS32 on WINE

That is what my XP machine is now except it runs a different windows application all the time (non-APRS). The biggest drive is the power consumption and it is becoming more and more troublesome as up-time increases. It really needs a cleanup but a new smaller current sipping device would be better.
Thanks!

I've taken a different approach, and still run Windows XP for basically the sole purpose of APRSISCE/32. Highly firewalled, and I won't even run an internet browser on it. Doesn't matter to me if Microsoft no longer supports XP, so long as the software still runs and I can wall off the system. Of course, it's no good for general use.
So my main rig is Linux (Debian) and I've begun exploring the YAAC APRS software app. Would be awesome if APRSISCE and YAAC could somehow combine forces, and produce a multi-platform APRS package with the same scrolling maps, functionality, etc. of APRSISCE. The other reason is that Microsoft, IMHO, did some really bizarre things with Windows 8.x, and I don't have a very good feeling about what the future holds either.

Re: APRSIS32 on WINE

Fred, What OS are you using with the PI? My guess is Raspian, so my recommendation would be a variation: Mint would be my recommendation Although Debian, Ubuntu, or any of their variants would be familiar to you. However if the memory amount is limited (straight DDR tends to be more expensive than DDR3) or other limitations of the "smaller computer", you might consider a variant specifically for limited memory/older hardware (LXLE). I have been running APRSIS32 through WINE on Mint for a long time. About the only issue I've really encountered has been APRSIS32 shutting down on certain automatic updates. I switched to manual
updates and check once a week. Linux is the underlying "core" or "Kernel", but there are many other aspects to consider. The DISTRO is more of the complete OS, and typically includes more than just the "Kernel", "Desktop", and a few other apps like browser and text editor. DISTROs usually include "full productivity applications (like MS Office)". Desktop - for less than 2 GB, you should go with LXDE, XFCE, or maybe Mate between 2 - 4 GB additionally, consider Cinnamon > 4 GB any: Gnome 3, Unity, KDE Many people believe that MATE can be "most like XP". If you want to be specific, you should do a little research on "distrowatch.com". Double check your hardware against possible DISTROs
capability as well. Robert Giuliano KB8RCO ---------------------------------------------

I am quickly arriving at a point where I will be replacing an old P4-3GHz PC (XP OS) with something newer. I am looking at a small form factor PC. There are some good reasons, one being power consumption, and another, XP is no longer supported. In lieu of Windows, which adds $100 or more, I am looking at one of the Linux distros but I have not ruled out Windows either. The purpose of this box will be primarily for an I-Gate (APRSISCE), Planeplotter and an email client. This box would be used headless as well most of the time. So far, my only Linux experience is from using a Raspberry Pi. So, for those that use APRSIS32 in a Linux box, are there any hints, comments, warnings that you may have? Thanks!

Re: APRSIS32 on WINE
Paul Clifton
When I only have my MacBook Pro handy, I run APRSIS32 on a stripped down version of Ubuntu 12.1 (except for high resolution drivers) as a virtual machine, and I have had no issues, so running it natively should be be even easier / better. I believe I followed the instructions on the wiki. It helps to be familiar with Linux and Wine, but it worked out of the box, so to speak, for me. Despite being on a VM, it does not seem to hog the Mac's resources, but then I am not doing much else when running APRSIS32 other than some HAM applications on Ubuntu. Not even considering running APRSIS32 on Windows 8. 73, Paul KF7WEZ Sent from mobile device.
