Which OS Builds do you still need
« on: April 08, 2020, 04:10:02 PM »
For PxPlus 2020 we are looking to eliminate some of the older Linux builds while we add new ones such as Redhat/Centos 8.

Please take a moment to indicate in this poll which of these legacy systems you still actively sell/install and that may require PxPlus 2020.
Indicate None of the above if you don't use any of these versions so we can get a idea of how many people actually voted.

Note that most of these are no longer supported by their respective manufacturer and on some there are limitations as to what we can both provide and support.

As always we strongly encourage clients to stay current both with PxPlus and your respective Operating Systems.

Do you have a clearer date as to when the new version will be released?

In general we target for early May each year. 

The actual date varies a bit based on the calendar as once we have the product ready we need to adjust the web site and do some background testing and setup. 

We will post an announcement to the forum when everything is ready.

Thanks to all that indicated which operating systems they are using.

Having reviewed the poll results, the following Linux operating systems will not be available for PxPlus 2020 due to the age and the fact they are no longer supported by their manufacturer:

  • Debian 3.1 (Sarge)
  • Ubuntu 10-32 Bit (Lucid Lynx)

Also note: PxPlus 2020 will be the FINAL version of PxPlus for the following operating systems:

  • Redhat (Tikanga) / CentOS 5
  • Debian 6 (Squeeze)
  • Ubuntu 10-64 Bit (Lucid Lynx)

PxPlus 2020 will include support and downloads for the following 64-bit operating systems:

  • Windows 10
  • Redhat (Oopta) / CentOS 8.1
  • Debian 10 (Buster)
  • Ubuntu 20 (Focal Fossa)
  • Suse 15.1 (Leap)
