2.7 + linux builds
I was told after I purchased 2.7 rev studio that Linux Builds would be available in the next update, well as I can see 2.7.1 is still missing them, while those who have version 2.6 can build to Linux and Unix. What about the users who do not have 2.6 and only have 2.7 and now 2.7.1 ?

Thanks for bringing this to my attention! I'm still using Rev 2.5.? Dreamcard and they keep wanting me to upgrade to Rev Studio 2.7. This is a good reason to keep holding off...
Come on RunRev, I'll upgrade to Studio and send you more money, once I see some positive feedback in this forum that its all good to go on Linux! (Note, this is encouragement, not critisism).
Any rumors / updates for what is in the pipe?

Installing Revolution
How do I install Revolution on Linspire Linux? Do I download 2.6.1 RPM or 2.6.1 tgz ? If I download RPM it ask for a program to open the file & I don't know what to use. If I download the tgz I see a lot of files, but can't seem to install Revolution. I'm new to Linux
and some things are different than Windows. Thanks for any help.

Well, it looks like we will be getting a Linux version again with the just announced 2.7.5 (beta testing program)...!
Not 100% sure about this as the announcements for access to the beta testing program are a little confusing. I think you need a license to 2.7.x to get access to the program, but Linux versions are still on 2.6.x versions?
Will need to dig a little further into this. What has everyone else found out about 2.7.5?

2.7.5 includes Linux? Really? I didn't see that in the newsletter. What I did see is:
Where does that leave the Linux folk, who haven't had a chance to become 2.7.x owners so far? What's it going to cost me, after the discount for being 6 months out of the upgrade loop?The most exciting news of all: Revolution 2.7.5 will be a free update. If you had an active Revolution maintenance plan as of February 1, 2006, or if you purchased any version of Revolution 2.7, you will receive Revolution 2.7.5 at no charge.
From this, I conclude that 2.7.5 will include a Linux engine.Revolution 2.7.5 - Free Update to 2.7.x Licensees
The focus on Revolution 2.7.5 is on core issues such as setup and install, crashing, IDE behavior, and stress testing. The new version will also finally bring the newest Revolution to the Linux platform.
