Roblox on Linux Mint 2

I have been using Grapejuice to run Roblox on LinuxMint 21.3. This has been working fine up till a few days ago. Then just stopped loading. After sharing the error / output details. I looked for a potential alternative.

I am now using a programme called Vinegar, which is also available in the Software Manager. This seems to be working fine. So I will stick with this for now.

Grapejuice error

Grapejuice is an application for LinuxMint that allows users to install and run Robox. I have been having problems with this since Wednesday 21st Feb 2024.

• Info on grapejuice

Just re-installed Grapejuice from the software manager, it tried to re-install Roblox and came up with a dialogue with the following error.

So I am sharing here with the view someone can maybe help see where the issue is.

From the menu Roblox App runs

/usr/bin/flatpak run —branch=stable —arch=x86_64 —command=grapejuice net.brinkervii.grapejuice app

so putting this in to a terminal window, usually runs the command but any output is also viewable

$ /usr/bin/flatpak run --branch=stable --arch=x86_64 --command=grapejuice net.brinkervii.grapejuice app

The only indication of an issue seems to be here

Gtk-Message: 14:41:31.856: Failed to load module "xapp-gtk3-module"

Again just sharing this as it makes it easier to ask for help

LxTerminal on LinuxMint 21.2

While the terminal application on LinuxMint is nice. I prefer to use LxTerminal (which I think is the default in Debian). I have made this video to illustrate how to install a different terminal within LinuxMint.

Once done, you can unpin the terminal application from the panel.

This can also be done from the software centre, but it makes sense to do this from the terminal as it is a terminal application being used.

Linux Mint 20.2 Ulma

The latest version of Linux mint [1] has now been released. I have downloaded the cinnamon edition to give it a go.

In my previous post [2] I gave a link to some suppliers of hardware, Linux mint is one of the OS's that can be pre-installed.
