Supported Operating Systems

All 32bit and 64bit Windows 7 and later operating systems are supported by development tools of the REX Control System. Windows Vista may also work but we give no guarantee or support for this version.

Only RexView is supported to run on GNU/Linux operating system and only the Debian Linux distribution is supported. Other development tools are not supported on Linux yet.

It is also possible to run all development tools on GNU/Linux on a 32bit or 64bit x86 platform using Wine from www.winehq.org. We actively test the REX installer for Windows in Wine and we are submitting patches to make everything work smoothly. User should have at least version 2.0 of Wine installed. A corefonts must be installed using the command winetricks corefonts. Nevertheless, we give no guarantee that everything works always as expected in Wine and we don’t guarantee any support yet.
