I'm trying to help my son by moving his cardbox from Windows Collins zyzzyva to a linux install

is that possible? if so, what do I need to take from the PC and move to the Linux box?

Thanks for your help

Install Zyzzyva on Linux as normal.

Then copy over these files from Windows in this folder:

C:\Users\<username>\.collinszyzzyva\quiz\data\*

to wherever Linux puts the user data, likely in ~/.collinszyzzyva/quiz/data/ 
That should do it. 

Another option is to keep your cardbox database in the cloud, like Dropbox, then point Zyzzyva to those files using symbolic links. I use Zyzzyva on three different Windows computers, depending where I am, and they all reference my cardbox in a Dropbox folder.
