New Member first question....
Will Cumulus MX run ok on Kubuntu provided I install the "mono" software?
I also have an XP computer available but I would rather use Linux
Thanks

Re: Cumulus MX on Kubuntu ?
It should run on any Linux, so long as the pre-requisites described in the instructions are installed. As you don't have a USB station, you shouldn't need to worry about libudev0, which can sometimes be lacking in some distros.

Re: Cumulus MX on Kubuntu ?
Thank you
Just to clarify, I am currently running WUHU on an XP machine, but my internet computer (and many others) are Kubuntu.
When we move this year (to New Mexico) I will install my Davis Christmas present and switch over the whole system.

Re: Cumulus MX on Kubuntu ?
When you use latest linux distributions you can get hold of old software packages by editing the sources.list so CumulusMX works.
I use Debian Jessie but had to refer back to Debian Wheezy to get libudev0 so it works.
