pcguru1:I am using a Chromebook and I want to learn Corel draw however this isn't possible because Chromebooks don't support Windows. Can Ubuntu Linux be installed to a 16GB Chrome so i can use Corel draw |

pcguru1:good morning sir |

Ebenezer2021: Corel Draw is a windows application, the only way to run on Linux is either using wine but na unpredictable thing. Just tell the person to buy a laptop. Chromebook is a toy item, you can install WIndows but na long process |

pcguru1: I need Help. I want to have my chrome book converted to Windows |
Re: Ubuntu Linux by AshipaEk0: 12:10pm On Sep 21, 2020 |
SwitChocolate: Why? What exactly do you want to do with Windows that's impossible on your Chromebook? |
Re: Ubuntu Linux by AshipaEk0: 12:13pm On Sep 21, 2020 |
Ebenezer2021: The hardware on this device makes using windows on it a foolish venture. It's too underpowered and doesn't have sufficient capacity. You can enable the Linux subsystem on a Chromebook and run native Linux apps directly. That's a more sensible option and you can run proper apps like GIMP to save your Corel draw fixation. At your skill level a Chromebook is actually a betteroption Check if the Linux beta option is available in your settings and enable it. Turn on Linux (Beta) At the bottom right, select the time. Select Settings . Under "Linux (Beta)," select Turn On. Follow the steps on the screen. Setup can take 10 minutes or more. A terminal window opens. You have a Debian 10 (Buster) environment. You can run Linux commands, install more tools using the APT package manager, and customize your shell. |

AshipaEk0: I want the handler I bought it for to be able to use it without Internet. I bought it for her to carry out research writing and she can't afford to perpetually stay online while working. I want her to have something she can work with without necessarily using the Internet while working |

Ebenezer2021: What Chromebook are you using? I might be interested in it. Chromebooks ain't really meant for graphics design. It's a lightweight PC with huge battery for office work and browsing. I use a Chromebook with Linux installed, and I've really enjoyed it. I'm not going to back to windows anytime soon. |
Re: Ubuntu Linux by Ebenezer2021(m): 10:18am On Sep 25, 2020 |
Buzx:the version of my chromebook is HP Chromebook 11 touch (16GB) when you said office work, do you mean Google doc like spreadsheets? do you have any idea if I can use the offline Google doc as Microsoft word and be typing and printing documents cos that'll be another source of income, but how would I print? sorry I'm just new to this chromebook OS cos it is entirely different with the conventional windows we've been used to |
Re: Ubuntu Linux by Buzx: 10:24am On Sep 25, 2020 |
Ebenezer2021: Yes, office work; Google doc, spreadsheet and notepad. I think you can use Google doc offline. Check this link. https://support.google.com/docs/answer/6388102?co=GENIE.Platform%3DDesktop&hl=en You can also check if your chomebook supports Android. From there, you can install any doc app you need. Another method is to install Linux on it. Also, in case you are looking to sell the PC, I'm willing to buy. |

Re: Ubuntu Linux by Ebenezer2021(m): 8:56pm On Oct 17, 2020 |
purplekayc:I have few questions. where can I download the iso and also how do I convert it to the version that will work for my Chromebook also are you using the Linux operating system? I need your help, do you have any idea on how to install development app for ss7? |
Re: Ubuntu Linux by Ebenezer2021(m): 9:00pm On Oct 17, 2020 |
Buzx:bro sorry for the delay in replying I was banned, just came back from ban. it's a new chromebook that was gifted to me by an aunt that stays in US. it's hp Chromebook 11 G5 touch screen it's not up to two months yet. how much would you buy it? Also do you have much knowledge about thehe Linux operating system? do you know if development app on ss7 could be installed on it? |
Re: Ubuntu Linux by purplekayc(m): 9:58pm On Oct 17, 2020 |
Ebenezer2021:I use Debian and mint |
Re: Ubuntu Linux by Buzx: 12:17pm On Oct 18, 2020 |
Ebenezer2021: I use a Chromebook right now, and I have Linux installed in it, but it's so limited because of the space and weak processing power. (I wanted to do Android development) I don't know what ss7 is. Let's talk on a better platform for faster communication. Or you can give me your whatspp number. I would message you and we can talk about the price and other things, if you're willing to sell it. |

Re: Ubuntu Linux by Bunsenbun(m): 11:20pm On Oct 18, 2020 |
Ebenezer2021:hello, linux is not just an os,it has hundreds of variants(distributions) i.e "sub-types" known as distros.You need to know your chromebook's hardware capability and suitable linux distros that would run efficiently on it. |
Re: Ubuntu Linux by Ebenezer2021(m): 11:57pm On Oct 18, 2020 |
