I suppose I've never run against something I couldn't install Linux on, but I should clarify that by "Linux compatible" I mean something that has drivers readily available (preferably upstream, but I realize that goes out the window with discrete GPUs). The reason I've been asking about HD4600 is that's what is available on system 76 laptops: https://system76.com/laptops/model/gazp9

I'm in the market for a laptop and I'm trying to figure out what to do. I would like a Linux compatible laptop that can play KSP reasonably well (not looking for fancy effects, but something that can handle ships with ~300 parts). Most laptops I've seen come with an Intel HD4600 or similar, but I'm not sure how that handles KSP nowadays (this previous thread indicated that it should be better: http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/39956-Laptop-recommendation/page4?highlight=intel+hd4600). I'm fine going with discrete graphics, but Linux compatibility and cost worries me a bit. Is anyone playing KSP on a Linux laptop able to comment? I'm currently using a desktop with a discrete card and it works just fine. Thanks!

Awesome, he even has his orange suit. Thanks :-) Also came across this after trying to figure out what the fields (idx) mean: http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/showthread.php/16863-Bill-Bob-and-Jeb-script

Thanks for the replies! Sorry for the long thread on an almost meaningless subject - I tend to be tenacious when it comes to getting things working. Ovenmit: how should I edit the save file? I don't see him in there anywhere (did a bunch of case-insensitive searches for strings like 'Jeb' and 'Ker'). I suppose I could steal his stats from one of the training files and create an entry, but I don't want to cause undefined behavior later down the road (i.e. what happens if the game tries to put him back). Any risk there? Tokay: Did you do anything to force this refresh or did it just seem to happen?

Not likely he's lost interest with that winning smile Has anyone else experienced this? I'm considering trying one of the mods, but they aren't for 0.21 and I especially don't know if they would interact correctly with how crew works now. I've gotten my unmanned design to land and come back from the Mun multiple times and I just know Jeb wants to be the first to plant a flag. It obviously isn't a major issue, but it seems odd...

I have confirmed that he isn't in my Applicants screen and that 'Assigned' and 'Lost' are empty.

Acutally, he's not in the Lost Tab, can't be hired, and I can't find him on the assignable side. Maybe I'm missing something, but I can double check when I get home. The fact that he isn't anywhere in the save file makes me curious - if he had some state (dead, lost, etc) it would have to stored there - right?

I apologize if this is answered somewhere, but I can't seem to figure it out. I don't remember killing Jeb (I've been doing only unmanned flight, but maybe I killed him early on and forgot about it), but I can't find him in the complex. I tried searching my persistent.sfs and I don't see him mentioned anywhere. Should I just install an addon to get him? Thanks!
