Yes, No need for a vm at all unlike what I thought at first. If you have ChromeOS 69 or better you can enable a beta feature called Crostini that will run linux apps in their own containers. The apps can be installed from CLI using apt-get. It’s tied to the Debian 9 Stretch repository. I

Is that the GnuCash for Android you are referring to? That might be what you are seeing. And no, it is not GnuCash, it is an outside project people can use to record their activity on their phone and then later import into GnuCash proper. Regards, Adrien > On Oct 6, 2018, at 5:21 PM, randix

Not quite understanding why Google Play is entering the thread. Correct me if I'm wrong (won't be the first time), but there is NO "app" for the "real" GnuCash. There is an app that has been causing enormous confusion for ages called GnuCash, but it's NOT GnuCash. The folks behind the app, are

Wow; that's excellent. The Crouton page also mentions Crostini: https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/docs/+/master/containers_and_vms.md Which does not require running with dev enabled. Pixelbooks work with Crostini. Here's the hardware list by motherboard:

I can heartily endorse crouton (https://github.com/dnschneid/crouton) as a way to install Linux on a chromebook. I did it for a couple years, and Ubuntu ran beautifully, but there will of course be a dependency on how powerful it is. I had an Acer C720 with 4GB RAM, 32GB SSD, and an Intel I3,

Very good to know that, thanks! But in a simplified practice and generic way, we can consider that the built-in color will interfere with your .css file changes so it is better to disable it. Regards GTI Em sex, 5 de out de 2018 às 03:24, Geert Janssens < geert.gnuc...@kobaltwit.be> escreveu:
