Error when starting Xowa on Slackware Linux #849

Closed shapeshifter910 closed 3 years ago

I get this on Slackware 14.2 64bit.

Sorry! XOWA failed to run!

Please check the TROUBLESHOOTING section in the readme.txt for known issues.

Thanks!

Is it possible to resolve this or do I need a newer version of Linux? Slackware 14.2 is now 7 years old.

I've updated to the lates Xowa and now the error is this

So looks like I need a newer GTK+ version. That explains the error.
