did you read this (http://hydlaa.com/smf/index.php?topic=19389.0) post??? it was clearly linked on the download page.... and it does clearly state what must be done before you install it...

BTW linux is not exactly like windows not everything can be run by double clicking you do sometimes need to use a terminal window...

right click planeshift.bin when logged as root and go to permissions. Then tick the box "allow planeshift.bin to be run as a program".
It worked for my mandriva 2007.

hmmm yes that works in some Linux Distro's but not all, What I was pointing at is...

Quote from: Xordan In the above link I gave

You will need to 'chmod +x PlaneShift_CBV0.3.017.bin' after downloading.

Which will work on ALL Distro's!
