Of course it would be nice to have. Team mauisun.org ID: 45035 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

We haven't added the graphics version because it would only work on newer linux versions due to graphics library dependencies and the fact that rosetta will not build using older versions of gcc (3.3 and older) necessary for graphics on older linux versions. Sorry for the long wait and late response. I guess one option may be to provide a version that people can set up and run on newer linux versions through an anonymous platform if they are motivated enough to do so.
