Meanwhile, version 14.1 has been published. And still does not work under Linux Mint 21.3.

Care to elaborate?

You installed the*.deb or downloaded the Appimage (and made it executable (chmod +x))?

[matejst]

I tried both. I hoped to see missing dependencies during the .deb installation, but it installed without problems, and simply did not work. Of course, I made the appimage executable.

En Croissant 12.1 works though. Problems started only after. On a similar note, both Pawn Appetit and Obsidian chess studio work fine.

[cpeters]

Do you receive any messages when you start the appimage in a terminal?

Encroissant saves its files and so on in:

Code: Select all

/home/user/.local/share/org.encroissant.app/l

there should be a folder with (maybe interesting) logs. Maybe old configs do conflict with the newer version-so it might help to move the

Code: Select all

org.encroissant.app

folder to

Code: Select all

back-org.encroissant.app

and start the new version afterwards...

I will try to delete the previous settings, and then start the new version of EC. Perhaps these previous settings cause problems. Thanks for the idea.

OK: Tried the appimage after deleting the previous settings. Not working. Then installed, without problems, the .deb package. Not working either. Reinstalled the 12.1 version and restored the old settings. Everything works fine.

I tend to believe that my system is in question and that I perhaps should upgrade, although I do not like to change things that work well. My LM 21.3 works flawlessly, chess programs under wine work well too. Anyway, EC, Pawn appetit and Obsidian are great for chess under Linux.

When will they learn about that new hot stuff called "opening book"?
