Uberjohn Posted November 22, 2024 Share Posted November 22, 2024 It would be so nice to not be tied to Microsoft Windows or the equally bad Apple control freaks just to run HX Edit or Helix Native. Please provide us with Linux native apps. Thanks, John 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DunedinDragon Posted November 22, 2024 Share Posted November 22, 2024 Would you support charging a fee for a native Linux based HX Edit to offset the development costs of this FREE software? Or would you just prefer to spend other people's money for your personal benefit? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uberjohn Posted November 28, 2024 Author Share Posted November 28, 2024 The software is already written, it just needs to be ported. Apple's OS is a close relative to Linux so it can't be all that major of an undertaking. Yes, it's nontrivial or I would be able to do it myself, but it's not that big of an ask. Microsoft and Apple are getting more intrusive every update, and I want to move entirely to FOSS. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frankdeath Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 I would also like to see Line 6 software officially support Linux. I already paid for Helix Native, but I would be willing to pay a 2nd time for a Linux version. I run a Windows virtual machine so that I can use HX Edit to update HX Stomp firmware, but the performance of software running in the VM sucks. If there are no plans to make HX Edit available on Linux, Line 6 should provide information about the communication protocol and file formats so the community can develop the software. Software to examine backup files exists, but this is far from what is needed: https://github.com/frankdeath/hx-tools 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zninja Posted 10 hours ago Share Posted 10 hours ago A bit OT, but I would gladly PAY for a Linux version of Helix Native. Make it happen Line6! Please! Also, DunedinDragon, welcome to my block party. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
