I can't run 'gedit' and the packages are too slow

I’ve typed ‘gedit’ in your simulation terminal so far, but it has NEVER gone well at all.
ALL I can get is just:

'cannot found command ‘gedit’ ’

What should I do???

It seems if I can’t access to gedit, I would never do my exercise…so I’m sad now.

And also I have a feeling that the packages you provide are too slow.
How can I make it much faster? ( Just so you know, I’m using GTX 1060 with i7)

Thanks in advance :slight_smile:

Hi @dkfkgks1218cf7a77dc90654b63,

Sorry for this trouble!

gedit is not installed on our VM’s as it cannot be used within the learning environment. For editing or creating files, we have the following options:

  1. The IDE at the top-middle of the learning environment. This is your best bet, as it’s a full-featured code editor.
  2. In case you can’t or don’t want to use the IDE, you can try using the command-line program vi, from the terminal:
vi /path/to/your/file

Now when you say the packages we provide are too slow, what specifically are you referring to?

Thanks, looking forward to hearing from you again!
