I do not know. Our first DVD set _may_ require a web installer to use.

Will you release a perfectly working, Linux friendly DVD set in the near future then?

when you use WinKey+G it will show the game mode window, but you have to be in window mode of X-Plane – in full screen you just see the screen flashing once

Sometimes is difficult to notice when is raining.

The solution above is working on Linux Mint 18.1 and Ubuntu 16.04. For Linux Mint I did provide the necessary information to Ben during the troubleshooting.

After this blog post was published I tried it on a clean Ubuntu 16.04 installation and it was working as expected.

No. We have not looked at integration with Win10 game mode at all, and I make no promises as to what happens when you bring up the game bar.

X-Plane is _not_ a game! It is a highly advanced numeric physics simulator!

Please contact support about this. The expected behavior is that the installer (from the net) would prompt you to change DVDs. If this is not working, please contact us directly.

Currently, yes. We’re working on our own set now.

Do you have any idea?

This solution only works with DVD1 because when installing the DVD2 the installer does not start, so I installed the other DVDs manually by copy / paste to have the entire Global Scenery.
Thanks for troubleshooting
