Hi everyone,

OffTopic: After 13 years I came back into the Linux-World...and nothing has changed
If I use a LiveCD WiFi is found and configured automatically, but if I want to use my favourite Dist from last time (debian) it is at least for me impossible to get the WLAN-USB stick running.

Hence, I installed Linux Mint and it works real great.

BTT: And there I installed OpenFOAM as shown in the install guide.
Works ragrding icoFoam, solver solves the cavity problem. but as i want to access the data vie paraview, an error ouccurs "qt-library "xcb" not found.

I searched now for hours to solve the issue, but no improvement.
So I installed ParaView via apt and it runs.

But honestly, i have no clue what this docker-philosophie means and i thought i could find the resukts with paraview.

If i start with ./startOpenFOAM a bash starts. If i use PWD it shows "/root/OpenFOAM/.....".
But if i go to /root via linux terminal, there is no OpenFOAM-FOlder.

Now the Questions:
* can someone explain this docker-thing for me?
* or does someone know how to solve this "qt-library xcb" problem, to use paraview as intended
* or can somone explain how to find the results when using paraview natively in linux (outside this docker-thing)

Thanks to the helpers - I am quite desperate in the mean time
Kind Regards
George
