I now am able to repurpose a laptop with broken screen hinges via hdmi into my tv and have tried both Debian and MintOS (a Debian/Ubuntu fork) clean installs. Mint uses the Ubuntu repos directly BTW. ?
I wanted to see how the individual packages installed manually before attempting the BAP script. I am sad to report that JS8Call and WSJT-X fail to install due to older dependencies that I was ultimately unable to resolve! I¡¯m rather shocked!
I still have several irons in the fire and this week is shaping up to be rough so I won¡¯t be able to get back to it for a bit, but I will update as I play with the other components. But without FT8/FT4 capability this is a nothing-burger for me.
