    The "where have you been all this time" thread

    The Rasberry Pi probably has the most development, but the ODROID can run x86 applications and operating systems can NOT run x86 because it has an ARM processor as well. So you can install Linux and still run games in it. I haven't invested in either because I'm still busy upgrading my...

    The "where have you been all this time" thread

    World of tanks error

    Normally err:d3d errors are related to Direct X or drivers. Can you play any other games in PlayOnLinux? Try using another version of wine like Wine 1.9.15-staging or try installing other packages like: directx9 or d3dx43_compiler

    Going to Need a Job Soon

    Exactly... Its amazing what our products do! Basically they can import Terabytes of data, filter them and prepare them for viewing. The tedious part is attorneys viewing the data. They may have to look through thousands of emails, spreadsheets and word documents. Our software even scans...

    The "where have you been all this time" thread

    I still have my LAN parties with 6 desktops and a lot of 80mm fans! They are all custom builds that get upgraded with hand-me-downs after I upgrade my best machine. AOA was a huge inspiration and motivation to keep working on my desktops. My next goal is to have Linux on all of my PCs for LAN...

    Lord Of The Rings Online installation

    Actually there is a bug with steamwebhelper in Wine, so the "crossover hack" version is the only way to initially setup Lord Of The Rings Online. So stick with that Wine version to get it setup and downloaded. Once you are ready to launch, try using another version of wine: Launch PlayOnLinux...
