First I would like to take the time to say thank you instead of pushing bug reports, You must see so many of them already that yet another one would bring hopes down. Please remember that what your team is doing for the Linux community is awesome and wonderful.
Best Regards
Levon Ravel,
I must say it wasn’t easy to make Unity Team release the Linux version of editor. Linux needs commercial software. But it is still only “experimental”.
I’m just happy that I can work with Unity on both my OS partitions. 
In fact, I’ve basically got a cross-platform toolset, thanks to unity’s efforts:
Unity 5.3.3, GIMP, Blender, LMMS = cross platform.
Only windows-only software is for my guitar rig, and that’s on a different machine. 
EDIT: Oh yea, I forgot to mention VS code here too. (That credit goes to Microsoft, which is surprising)
I was looking into vs code but seems a little lite for my needs, I develop plug-ins for unity, so I really needed something that could compile out. Monodevelop does the job but some reason I cannot get it to open automatically when I click on in game classes. So far I have not noticed any bugs and I am doing a lot of procedural work. Same as you had to make a move to blender as wine will not run zbrush… Very sad day haha but all in all I am very pleased with the teams efforts. I can honestly say I am very happy that I do not need to look toward micro $$ any more. Thank you Unity Team…
Best Regards
Levon Ravel.
I’d rather have it be experimental than non-existant.
I am dreading the idea of ever having to run Windows 10, so my hope is that my next computer can run a duel boot of either Manjaro and Win7 or Mint and Win7, with the intention of doing as much as possible on Linux, and only using Windows for mostly testing Windows versions of games or using any other software I can’t possibly get on Linux.
Though at this point, most of the software I use anyway (Gimp, Audacity, VLC media player, Libre Office) is actually Linux software that they ported to Windows, and all I’m really waiting for is Unity. And for Autodesk to make an Deb/Ubuntu version of Maya, but thats another story…
Anyway, I really hope this becomes a real legit version of Unity so I can finally start using Windows a lot less. I really appreciate that this effort is being made by the Unity folks
Lots of love in this thread I like it 
I made the move to Blender something like 5 years ago back when I didn’t even know linux existed (or, I did, but wasn’t really interested then) simply because I didn’t want to be tied down by a license I knew was going to expire when I finish school. (3DS Max, Autodesk, I’m looking at you. ;)) That, and… I seriously never saw why 3DS max was so well received; I find blender far superior to 3DS Max in workflow speed.
Kinda sad that zbrush won’t run though… I’ve heard really amazing things about that program.
Hahahahaha…
sorry…
/crawls back into box
I would NOT be surprised if that was their reaction.
My sentiments exactly
I was going to say Adobe bringing the Creative Cloud to Linux in that post, but I had such a sidestich from laughing and blurry vision from crying by the time I got half way through typing it that I changed it.
HA! Good… Luck… with that. XD
(And we do have GIMP… haven’t given openshot a go yet to replace premiere)
You may want to try Krita if you haven’t. If someone would have told me it was a $300-$400 piece of software I would have believed them. It’s one of the most polished/professional feeling FOSS softwares that I’ve used.
Yeah exactly. Still though, as much as I love Gimp and Krita over Photoshop, it would be nice to have some of that video editing software. Because I mean Openshot and Kdenlive can get the job done, neither of them touches Aftereffects for visual effects. Thats probably one of the only things on Linux that I feel is lacking, is in video editing and special effects. But yeah, Adobe would probably need to be held at bazooka-point before they ever even considered a linux desktop version of Adobe CC
And yeah, Krita rocks, my friend recently got a drawing pad and she loves using it with Krita. While I like Gimp better for some things, Krita’s interface is so intuitive and nice, it’s just very drawing pad friendly
Wow, had no idea that existed, might even give it a whirl sometime. (Currently, I’m trying to prevent my ubuntu partition from filling up, it’s only got 300MB left or something… 
)
Woah, jeez
Might need to pop a new drive into that mutha.
Well, if you are into digital drawing/painting, Krita is the best for that. It has features you didn’t even know you needed like it’s little right clicky menu thing that lets you pick your favorite brushes and colors and stuff. It’s awesome.
Might… only the HDD partition I gave to ubuntu’s 14 GB. (The ENTIRE SYSTEM takes up something like 10 gigs, then there’s Unity, an additional 3GB. next is my android SDK install, of which tops 500MB)
(Windows 10 has the rest of it, about 218GB, to itself, simply because I have a bad habit of filling up windows installs… )
EDIT: I think I worked out what’s taking up so much… why on earth are there 32-bit libs in my packages list?! (It’s supposed to be pure 64-bit… )
Jeez, I would have gone with at least 20gb if you wanted to go…minimalist, ha ha
If you’re using a desktop, you oughta just pick up a small SSD or something and just migrate your Ubuntu install onto that
I was seriously thinking of swapping my laptop drive out anyway, since it’s something like 5 years old, and possibly going to cark it soon. (sometimes, I get hard-disk related lockups, but they’re extremely few and far between…)
Dude, I would definitely be upgrading to an SSD in that case
I had my HDD die in this laptop a year or two ago unexpectedly (something fell off of the shelf above me onto the laptop, right where the HDD is, during a skype call, it was the trippiest experience watching my computer slowly die, and having my friend listen). And it was a HUGE problem to install a backup because of how SSDs work, because apparently you can’t install a backup image meant for an HDD on an SSD
Anyway, long story short, this laptop runs on an 840 evo now, and it was 100% worth it.
It was like I got a new computer, I don’t even think it was this fast when I first got it years ago
All you need to do is pick up a 2.5 inch SSD and a 2.5 inch sata drive enclosure, and (at least with the samsungs, which are the best) they come with a DVD that migrates all your data to the new disk, then you just install the SSD and watch your computer jump to warp factor 9
Plus, SSDs are more impact resistant, which is why I’ll never run a mechanical drive in a laptop ever again.
Doing it before you have to is way easier and way less costly than doing when your drive is already dead.
In this case I’d pick up a big one, like a 500gb model, so you can give your windows and Ubuntu installs some space to stretch their legs a little
That’s strange… What software did you use to clone your disk?
I’ve heard of people being able to backup with clonezilla or something, swap drives, and flash clonezilla image back. (Ok, I admit I got that out of a magazine, but the one I read have their heads screwed on right!)
Also… My Ubuntu partition did something strange with the filesystem today, (It thinks the disk is full when the total partition capacity indicates it’s clearly not… and it isn’t inodes this time) so… looks like I’ll be doing the cleanup soon!
