Anyone here a seasoned Linux desktop user (with some programming experience)?
With LDCad 1.0 beta out, I'm playing around with getting a Linux version going. But having only experience with Linux server systems I'm a bit lost with all the desktop options out there.
I'm currently downloading Ubuntu wubi (I use Ubuntu server for work so this is at least some what familiar) to get a look, but maybe people think I should use something other for the base development environment.
The goal is to get a (set of) pre compiled binaries to add to the LDCad download site covering most used desktop stuff. I'm figuring when it compiles in Ubuntu 11, it would also go in most other recent distro's.
I'm just hoping to avoid pitfalls by using any info people can give me.
ps: this might be more of a 'dev' thing, but there is no section for that (yet).
