    Linux version

    Hi Brian. Thanks for the detailed response. I get it...after a career running s/ware development companies... For my own purposes, right now running EFB in a container is working fine. As I am supposed to be retired I am just really messing with having EFB and the stratux code run on the same...

    Crosswinds

    Huh, who knew :) I tried tapping but but didn't get any popups. I'll have to try that again. Thanks.

    Crosswinds

    I was at my EAA chapter VMC meeting tonight and one of the scenarios we discussed was severe turbulence and low fuel and what the best options were. Given the winds and gusts reported by AWOS at the various airports I thought, while looking at the weather info, it would be nice if next to the...

    Linux version

    For those interested, I have now run EFB in a container on ubuntu linux on a very old i5 laptop. Runs pretty near native speed from what I can tell. My next step is to implement the Stratux code on the i5 and get it to work with EFB. Once I have done that I will move it to the PI 4 (just...

    Linux version

    It doesn't have anything to do with it, it's just out of curiosity. I like to keep up with what the business is doing these days. I don't want to mess around with the EFB code although, if asked, I'd probably be willing to port it to linux for free just for the challenge. On the other hand, I...

    Linux version

    May I ask what the new development platform is, just out of curiosity. If someone wants to keep it secret that's fine, or you could email me privately. Basically I am trying to decide what to do about the Stratux code...whether to bother porting it to android in Go, give up on it and use Stratus...

    Linux version

    That's what I was afraid of... I spent 30+ years in s/ware and tech and I'm not much of a Windows fan so this is a real disappointment to me, not that I'm an OS bigot. I understand that business decisions may not always align with technology. Personally, I found the GPS version clunky compared...

    Linux version

    I realize porting takes time, but given that the beta EFB version was supposed to be all new code, not originally developed on Windows, and that android uses a linux kernel, why would you not have a native linux port ? A native linux port would make EFB so much more acceptable as it could be...
