Debian 10 & ROOM EQUATION WIZARD

Post by lilith »

If someone is using REW and is thinking about upgrading to Debian Buster, there's a problem with the JAVA Version. REW is only working with JAVA 7 or 8, but Debian Buster only uses Java 11. I didn't find a way yet to install Java 8 on Debian Buster. Good that I still use Stretch on my Desktop PC. Just installed Buster test wise on a laptop.
