Hi, I have been running with Ubuntu 10.10 for a little while now. Very happy with it. I even went so far as to install Livecode 4.6.1 on it. So happy was I that I decided to take the full plunge and go 'totally' Linux (if Ubuntu is such). It installed fine, though I can't for the life of me remember how I did that. I think I just clicked and away it went. It must have worked because there it sits. In the right directory (/opt/runrev) and everything. It works pretty well too. though it gets slow and creaky if I have too many windows open. For this reason I installed my Windows version on VBox so I could have the 'best' of both worlds.
To my puzzlement. I downloaded the 'installer' for Livecode 4.6.3. They installed easily on my Mac and faux-windows OSs. So, I thought, it's time to get the Linux 4.6.3 version up and running. hmmm. Several hours later... hmmm. A few more hours later and various searches on Google and on this list and on the runrev list... hmmmm, sigh. What I have tried. Basically just operating as root. Copy the "LiveCodeInstaller-4_6_4-Linux.x86" to /opt/runrev. Then from the terminal tried to execute the .x86 file. Result was "No such file or directory". hmmm, sigh... ##@!#...hmmm. Does anyone have step-by-step instructions on how to install the .x86 file onto Ubuntu. I am getting tired out by all this hmm-ing and sigh-ing. cheers Alistair Townsville Australia -- View this message in context: http://runtime-revolution.278305.n4.nabble.com/How-do-you-install-Livecode-4-6-3-on-Ubuntu-10-10-tp3815597p3815597.html Sent from the Revolution - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
