Thx for the knowledge

As you do with Red Hat 😎 (or not, idk, never used it)

I did a clean wine install and could confirm that OPL Manager indeed does not launch, which is kinda intriguing to me, since it did work with me about 2 years ago, this user also reported it working (in 2016) , maybe something changed along the way and it broke? I’ll try to make it work when I get another chance :P Unless OPL-PC-Tools proves to be good enough to replace it for ya

About HDL Batch Installer, I personally never used it, so I’m not sure on how it works and all, BUT, with some research it seems like HDL Batch is just a frontend for HDL Bump, while Batch is windows only, there seems to be an alternative frontend for Linux, called HDL Dump Helper but I did not test it nor do I got a ps2 right now to do so. Wish you best of luck 😁

Back whe I used OPL, OPL-PC-Tools worked fine. OPL Manager specifically also ran fine under wine for me.

If you find the time you could do some testing under a live media enviroment, I recommend Linux Mint if you haven’t tested it already :)

Canonical deserves most of the critics they get.

Ubuntu users on the other hand don’t deserve even the slight amount of critic they get for just… Using Ubuntu. like, at least they use Linux, we should be encouraging them to keep using it.

It would be too little for potato standards, but I believe in your theory! 🥔🐱
