Sounds like you need to install gdk-sharp

I'll write a shell script for your version if you want. Might take a day. What distro are you on? Linux Mint. Ubuntu based or Debian? (LMDE)

[rsandage]

Mint Ubuntu.

Thanks

[ronnie.redd]

Give me a couple of days. Planned outage coming up. 😒

I've posted SP67 for Linux, which adds support for Oxva Pro 2 DNA.

Do we have any idea if this will work on Linux Mint 22 which uses Ubuntu 24.04? gtk sharp is near impossible to get now-a-days. Could really use a bit of help getting it to run as i can't as of yet.

thanks.

SetupEScribe2_SP67_US looking very sharp on MX Linux 23.6 AHS.

In LM 22 load Software Manager

In Software Manager, search for Synaptic

If it's not installed, install it.

Search Synaptic for your dependencies, check the box, click apply, confirm with another click on apply and it should load.
