Posted in Cura 2.7 in Linux? Or a different version?

I am running Linux Mint 18, and have a Prusa i3 printer. When I open Cura 2.7 (64 bit), it does not recognize my USB printer. I tried to just print with an SD card, but that gave me crazy results (didn't heat bed or nozzle, printer moving around 5 inches above bed...). Should I be using an earlier version of Cura? I had previously (successfully) been using 15.04 with an old Windows 7 machine, so I tried to install that earlier version in the new Linux system. But after I uninstall the Cura 2.7, the older version (15.04) of Cura does not want to install. I'm stuck!

      "Back To The Future" using Generative Design & Investment Casting

      SteveCox3D posted a topic in Engineering,

      Designing for light-weight parts is becoming more important, and I’m a firm believer in the need to produce lighter weight, less over-engineered parts for the future. This is for sustainability reasons because we need to be using less raw materials and, in things like transportation, it impacts the energy usage of the product during it’s service life.
