Linux Specific Issues / Re: Trying to Install....Problems
« on: May 26, 2011, 05:54:32 pm »
when I click the desktop shortcut it says this.

Untrusted application launcher
The application launcher "PlaneShift.desktop" has not been marked as trusted. If you do not know the source of this file, launching it may be unsafe.

Also when launching from Applications > Other > PlaneShift nothing happens.

Wow why wouldnt it let you know that it suceeded, like a confirmation or something, is all Linux stuff installed like this? It seems really hard.

I typed the code to check and got this...

cali@HomeLaptop:~$ ls -la /opt/PlaneShift

I do belive I said I am SUPER NEW TO LINUX  so these instructions you are giving are kinda confusing. just linking me to a bunch of forum post wont help.

I see you want me to change permisiions?  aparently with a code like this? sudo chown -R your_username_here:users /opt/PlaneShift/  
I have tried this but it dosnt seem to work.


cali@HomeLaptop:~$ sudo ./PlaneShift-v0.5.6-x86.bin


(main.tcl:5617): Gdk-WARNING **: gdk_window_set_icon_list: icons too large
cali@HomeLaptop:~$
cali@HomeLaptop:~$ sudo chmod +x PlaneShift-v0.5.6-x86.bin
cali@HomeLaptop:~$ chmod +x PlaneShift-v0.5.6-x86.bin
cali@HomeLaptop:~$
cali@HomeLaptop:~$
cali@HomeLaptop:~$
cali@HomeLaptop:~$
cali@HomeLaptop:~$ /sudo chown -R cali@homelaptop /opt/Planeshift/
bash: /sudo: No such file or directory
cali@HomeLaptop:~$ /opt/PlaneShift/psclient
bash: /opt/PlaneShift/psclient: Permission denied
cali@HomeLaptop:~$ sudo chmod a+rx /usr/share/applications/planeshift*.desktop
cali@HomeLaptop:~$ /opt/PlaneShift/psclient
bash: /opt/PlaneShift/psclient: Permission denied
cali@HomeLaptop:~$ sudo chown -R Cali /opt/PlaneShift/
chown: invalid user: `Cali'
cali@HomeLaptop:~$ sudo chown -R cali@HomeLaptop /opt/PlaneShift/
chown: invalid user: `cali@HomeLaptop'
cali@HomeLaptop:~$


ONCE AGAIN I HAVE NO IDEA HOW TO DO THIS PLEASE GIVE SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS!  ( Why the hell is is so F**KING Hard to Install this)

You say it is on the desktop so you need to be in the desktop folder.
Code: [Select]
cd Desktopthen follow instructions.
Alternatively you could move in into your home folder .

The snippets you posted indicate you are in the home directory.
from that directory you can
Code: [Select]
mv Desktop/PlaneShift-v0.5.6-x86.bin ./but it is probably easier to do that with the file manager whichever it is. You can probably do it by right clicking on the file on your desktop and choosing 'move to' from the context menu.


So I moved the file into the Home folder because what you said about the desktop made sense to me, so after moving to home folder I tried the same Chmod and Sudo code's both seemed to do nothing when entered.  I enterd both again a second time, this time the sudo code didnt nothing again but the Chmod code did run the installer finally. however after i installed the game now when I go to Applications > Other > Plane Shift it gives me this; 

"Could not launch 'PlaneShift'     Failed to execute child process "/opt/PlaneShift/pslaunch" (Permission denied)"

if you want to change permissions you have to use sudo command:
cali@HomeLaptop:~$ sudo chmod +x PlaneShift-v0.5.6-x86.bin

This did literally nothing.......

Ok so I downloaded the new PS file for linux but I cant get it to do anything.
it is named   PlaneShift-v0.5.6-x86.bin  and located on my desktop.
I try to use the suggested commands but nothing happens.... here is the terminal I see.

cali@HomeLaptop:~$ chmod +x PlaneShift-v0.5.6-x86.bin
chmod: cannot access `PlaneShift-v0.5.6-x86.bin': No such file or directory
cali@HomeLaptop:~$ sudo ./PlaneShift-v0.5.6-x86.bin
[sudo] password for cali:
sudo: ./PlaneShift-v0.5.6-x86.bin: command not found


I am really new to Linux and Ubuntu so when giving advice please assume I know how to do nothing except open the terminal.
