Tried this one in Ubuntu "Gutsy".
After running through your outlined procedure, I got a message saying
"xfractint not installed" Use "sudo apt-get install xfractint". I
did this and tried to run... and it worked. However, the scrolling
screen was missing and I went straight into rendering the test Mandel.
This is another "blue end" spectrum type.
Something's still not right with my folders, and/or the placement of
sstools, as I must use two shift-6's to get into the directory
containing the pars. I'm trying to discover where sstools should be
to stop this.
Still, this is the closest I've been, so far, to a smoothly running
xfractint.
Thanks, Johnathan.
