IMHO, don¡¯t hold your breath for a native Linux version.
HOWEVER, I¡¯m running it on WINE here on an Ubuntu system, along with Winlink Express and VarAC. Runs great. I¡¯ve eradicated windows from my shack 100%.
I also have it running with WINE + Box86 on a 32-bit Raspberry Pi OS Pi5. It works well there, but isn¡¯t quite as stable as the Ubuntu system. And, of course, the Pi5 isn¡¯t as fast as the AMD-based mini PC, but it¡¯s tiny and only draws a couple of Watts, making it an excellent choice for mobile operating.
