@lupyuen @PINE64 Why must you keep showing me cool stuff that I want to play with....? I just spend the last half hour looking for a repo that I found acceptable to install eDEX-ui...

@lupyuen @PINE64 Darn it!

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
edex-ui:amd64 : Depends: npm:amd64 but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

@lupyuen I've had this issue before when I tried to get VS Code. It's a 64 bit machine, but when I tried to get it to play with 64 bit stuff, it eats APT.

@lupyuen It's some weird multi-arch thing, isn't it? Grr..

@Lwasserman Hmmm this worked for me...

git clone --recursive github.com/GitSquared/edex-ui
cd edex-ui
npm run install-linux
npm start

Are you still running Debian Mate? Should upgrade to Manjaro Xfce because Debian Mate on Pinebook Pro is weirdly 64-bit kernel + 32-bit apps (Manjaro is all 64-bit)

@lupyuen Running LXDE. I have the suspicion that when I set up this computer, I may have set up everything to be 32 bit. I'm no expert in Debian. I've run it for years, but when I have problems, I mostly just beat on it till it behaves. I'm no superuser.

@lupyuen Linux LinBox 4.19.0-9-686-pae #1 SMP Debian 4.19.118-2 (2020-04-29) i686 GNU/Linux

@Lwasserman Hmmm you're on Intel while I'm on Arm64... Not sure if your machine is 64-bit capable

@lupyuen It's an Intel chip, but reasonably new. I think I like the idea of wiping things. I just have to back everything up.

@lupyuen Thank you. I might not start with it tonight, but I'll need the luck.

@lupyuen Maybe it makes sense to wipe it and make sure to install the amd64 version...

@Lwasserman yep and 64-bit Manjaro really runs faster than Debian Mate 😀
