Good afternoon, I am a college student using your ChimeraX software to complete an assignment in my biochemistry course. I have downloaded your app to my HP Chromebook using the most recent Ubutun version. Despite being on my personal computer, ChimeraX cannot open the files needed from my computer. When I tried to find out why this is happening, I concluded that it might be a software issue because I wasn't even able to set up the ChimeraX app completely. I would greatly appreciate some guidance and assistance. Thank you, Anna Popa

Hi Anna, Unfortunately we don't have any experience installing or using ChimeraX on a Chromebook. For the quickest help, I'd recommend someone at your school. Preferably someone that has already succeeded at installing Ubuntu applications on a Chromebook. Or just a computer knowledgeable person that can see exactly how you tried to install ChimeraX and then help troubleshoot. Or maybe someone on this mailing list can help? I will try to setup ChromeOS in a virtual machine to see if I can reproduce your problem, but it is unclear to me just yet if that will work.
