i found http://www.andlinux.org and it´s amazing... you can run Linux inside windows without a vm ;)
first thought -> check if my pb-program works under Linux. but it doesn´t.
i tried a few examples -> nope... but actually debug formatdate(....) works!

so maybe there are ways to make purebasic work with andLinux?!? i´m a linux-noob so don´t count on me :roll:


any ideas?

andLinux is not a revolutionary solution as it is entierly base on coLinux wich we already talked about here.
I personaly don't aprove this kind of "OS inside another OS", PureBasic is natively supported by Linux so why adding such weird feature ?
This is only a waste of time and the PB team don't live in outer space with a infinite continuum spacetime :lol:

As I understand it, andLinux runs Ubuntu, so PB should work there without problems.
You just have to install the required development packages.

Here is some information:

thanks for the links, freak! the video helped me a lot.
i just installed a wrong lib but after installing the right one everything works fine .... purebasic works on andLinux!

@karlkox: yeah it might not be the best solution, but for a linux beginner it´s worth a try...
AND you can quick check your pb-code under linux without multiboot!

cheers, chi

The Linux Requirements page at http://www.purebasic.com/introduction_linux.php3 now lists different requirements.

I've successfully installed PB under Ubuntu 8.04 and Debian using the second link above as a guide. I'm getting ready to install it under Fedora 9 (on a LiveUSB thumb drive). What else will I need now?
