Unable to install Linux packages.

[globetrotterdk]

The NomadBSD Handbook states that the steps for installing Linux packages are as follows:
`# sysrc linux_enable=YES

service abi start

pkg install linux-sublime`

Unfortunately, that doesn't work for me:
`~> cat /etc/rc.conf | grep linux
linux_enable="YES"

service abi start

abi does not exist in /etc/rc.d or the local startup
directories (/usr/local/etc/rc.d), or is not executable

ls -l /etc/rc.d | grep abi

root@NomadBSD:~ #

ls -l /usr/local/etc/rc.d | grep abi

root@NomadBSD:~ #`

It has been suggested that there has been some luck with a work around, where the user installs a Linux browser first, by using the Linux Browser install GUI. I have considered this, and am interested in installing a Linux browser, however I am only interested in installing the new Microsoft Edge for Linux browser, which isn't in the list. Is there a way to install the Microsoft Edge browser by modifying the GUI script, or should the issue of being unable to install any Linux packages be tackled head-on? I am a bit unsure, but I definitely need some help on both interrelated issues...

The handbook needs an update. It should now be service linux start.

I've just added support for installing Microsoft Edge to https://github.com/mrclksr/linux-browser-installer.git

$ git clone https://github.com/mrclksr/linux-browser-installer.git
$ cd linux-browser-installer
$ sudo ./linux-browser-installer install edge

Wow. I am impressed. Thanks. There are a couple of issues or potential issues:

My monitor flashes a fair amount when using Edge. I assume that something needs to be added within the following quotation marks, perhaps "ubuntu ubuntu64"?
~> cat /etc/rc.conf | grep nvidia kld_list="cuse4bsd nvidia-modeset.ko nvidia.ko"
The other things here are just to check that everything is OK, particularly after my problems with localization before. They occured while running the script to install Edge:

perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
	LANGUAGE = (unset),
	LC_ALL = (unset),
	LANG = "en_US.UTF-8"

This probably due to missing GLX support under the Ubuntu chroot. There's no solution yet.

These message are nothing to be concerned about.
