<p>I've been running DX Spider on a Windows platform for almost 20
years. Now that I have extra time (due to COVID-19), I'd like to
try installing it on the latest Ubuntu 20.04 LTS version. First, I
need a "Ubuntu for Dummies" book since I know nothing... but plan
on finally digging into it. Back in 2011, there were some install
steps for Ubuntu 11.04 posted and I'm curious if those still
apply? (listed below). If there are changes, please let me know.
Thanks.</p>
