SketchUP 2024 running flawlessly on Arch Linux using Wine (system 9.17)
  • It's KDE panel+application title widget

  • SketchUP 2024 running flawlessly on Arch Linux using Wine (system 9.17)
  • Yes it's working completely offline you can't even access the werehouse, I'm not sure if they allow it on there because you need a pirated version of SU to work, here is my rough instruction

  • SketchUP 2024 running flawlessly on Arch Linux using Wine (system 9.17)
  • you have to keep in mind that you can't even install SU24 with Wine, so a portable version is a must which mean sail the high seas is the only way to obtain it (appnee dot com)

    • here is how I did it in order (you need a portable SketchUP2024 and latest version of visual c++ 64bit and 32bit)
    • 1, install Lutris (not sure if it work with Bottles or plain wine but this is the only way I know works)
    • 2, install Wine normally (sudo pacman -S wine) it should come with system 9.17 or higher
    • 3, open Lutris and let it download dependencies
    • 4, create a new "game" entry inside Lutris set Runner to system 9.17 and executable location to visual c++ and install it normally
    • 5, if you try to run SU now (change location from visual c++ to SketchUP exe) it will crash to fix that you need to install a windows component inside winetrick (by click on the glass wine icon on the bottom>winetrick>Select the default wineprefix>install a Windows DLL or component>ucrtbase2019)
    • 6, now you should be able to run it but you might see a black screen, to fix that you just have to restart the app a few time then you should be able to click on the check box and it take you to the home screen, it will crash the first time you open a template/model then you can just reopen it and can create a template just like normal

  • OS Installation
  • Yes installing Arch is as easy as counting to 10

    Linux is Teal

    You probably have seen Gnomify KDE, now get ready for Swayify KDE XD, this is not a Tiling windows manager I just like how Sway desktop looks while still able to navigate around with only mouse control. Software I used to modify KDE:

    • Vanilla KDE
    • Application title bar widget
    • Wofi

    I'm excited for Cosmic Desktop

    From what I saw Cosmic has a lot of potential and looks pretty sleek too, right now I'm using KDE it's a great desktop, but now that I have a second monitor it randomly crashes on me, I think I'll switch to Cosmic when it reaches beta.

    (Solved) how do I change inactive windows and header color?

    I edited breeze dark color scheme to darker color everything went well but windows and header color revert back to breeze dark color when inactive how can I change this? thanks in advanced. (sorry for bad English)

    Edit: because I make a color scheme copy from default breeze dark and that's make some color not working properly when changed, I edit one of my downloaded color scheme and that works just fine

    Remote desktop for Wayland?

    I only just switched to Linux last month that time I don't know what Wayland or X11 is and I just use Linux like normal without knowing I'm using Wayland (KDE), now since I'm already configured my KDE desktop on Wayland and I don't wanna do it again, so I'm looking for a remote desktop that work under Wayland not locally but from anywhere does anyone know software like that exist? (Sorry for horrible English)
