I have gotten Scrivener to run on my new Linux/Mint/Cinnamon 64bit ver 22.3 OS. The program opened and ran, but the licensing process would not work. Based on a suggestion in these forums (which I showed to Gemini AI), I (we) solved it by loading it using Lutris (for video games!) It took a lot or tweaking with Gemini AI helping.
So far, however, we cannot get The new Scapple to work. Again, we can get the program to run, but can not solve the failure to license. I’m hoping that someone has succeeded installing Scapple on a Linux/Mint/Cinnamon 64bit ver 22.3 OS. Gemini AI (artificial Inteligence) and Myself AI (average Intelligence) would be very grateful for any clues.
Just ran into the same issue, which is strange because Scrivener installed and activated with no problem. I’m running Mint 22.03 but with a Mate desktop. I’m using Crossover to manage Wine ‘cause I got tired of messing with it.
Long story, short. I looked at the Scapple bottle and mono was installed but not Microsoft .net. I have no clue why. I just used Crossover to install Scrivener in a bottle and .net was part of that install. I’m not familiar with Lutris but there should be a way to install .net into the bottle? directory? whatever coincides with that in Lutris. After I installed .net into the Scapple bottle already there, the license activated with no problem.
