Install MPLABX and C30 on Linux Mint
I just upgraded from the cluster that is Ubuntu to Mint and tried to install MPLABX and the C30 compiler from Microchip. The install went flawless on Ubuntu 11.10 however there was a problem running the .bin files on Mint, something about GTK themes or something. There is an easy fix add “–mode xwindow” after the bin files
sudo ./mplabx-ide-beta7.12-linux-installer.run --mode xwindow sudo ./mplabc30-v3.30c-linux-installer.run --mode xwindow
Installs just fine
