Thank you Goatpig and HCP for very informative postings. I learned a lot by reading them. Also, it is great to learn that Linux Mint was not at fault for my Armory install not working. The problem is my old laptop. I'm using a Dell M90 laptop. It dates back to around 2007. The processor is an Intel Core 2 CPU. It has 4GB of RAM installed but for some reason Mint is telling me 3.2GB is what I have for RAM. It also has an NVIDIA Quadro FX 3500 and I recently installed a 2TB SSD hard drive on it because my 500GB hard drive ran out of space. I hope this old laptop can keep my Armory ONLINE version running for the next 5 years.
Nevertheless, I want to thank Goatpig and his entire team for offering a "No ASM" version of Armory for those of us using old laptops. The "No ASM" version is a blessing because it means I do not have to spend a lot of money on buying new modern laptops. I can report my "No ASM" install of Armory is working nicely on my ONLINE Mint laptop. It has successfully showed me my transaction history and wallet info which is impressive.
I also have a second M90 Dell laptop. My next project is to install the OFFLINE version of Armory on this second laptop so it can become my OFFLINE laptop for Armory.
Lastly, I'm curious to know if the yet to be released Armory version 0.97 is going to have a "No ASM" version designed to run on old laptops? It will be great if the "No ASM" version is kept alive for this future release as well so that old laptops can remain in use.
Again, thank you to this entire community for the support and to Goatpig for keeping Armory moving forward.
