From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

There's one thing keeping me from switching to Linux on my PC, it is the lack of support from FL Studio and a lot of VST plugins for music creation. (My experience using Wine has not been very good.) (beehaw.org)

ye this is weird. do you have any other wine packages installed (like mono, gecko, and corefonts?) i remember installing them (and i think .net framework and visual c++ as well) before installing FL Studio.

if all that fails then idk, i'm just as stumped as you. wine can be a bit hit or miss, especially on certain setups.

I checked and everything looks good! I don’t know man… I just made two tracks with this setup but it’s not so bad
