LibreCad - works

I had tried a few days ago after installing muParser and it didn't finish installing - forget what the error was and I didn't write it down (shame on me). If someone somewhere did something - thank you, if not - just reme...

GNUCash starts then disappears

This is my last hurdle to load SalixOS on my main system. Thanks for your hard work. Currently running the beta version (32bit) on the laptop to see if I can get everything working OK. It's taken a little time but has been worth the effort - it pushes me a little to learn more about how things work ...
