   I just tried this-it won’t start from gui or command line.

   I have also tried this, and I don’t see a .deb file once extracted, just an executable; is this the link for the Windows beta perchance?

   Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS

   Okay, figured it out… don’t be lazy and click the big green button on the SourceForge page, scroll down and the .deb is the second download link. I was just lazy and too excited to slow down and double check everything… Thanks for posting this!

   I cannot get it to open with Lucid

   All I get is a window telling me:

   Access violation corruption
   Press OK to ignore and risk data corruption

   I click OK and nothing happens

   Hey guys, that is what I was getting too, don’t download the “win32″ executable or the first .zip package. I couldn’t get the .zip package to work either, grab the 2nd listed one, it is the “.deb,” then just double click it when is downloaded…

   here is a direct link to the .deb version…

   I uninstalled it and installed it again and still get the same message. Oh well, it is beta after all. Maybe they will get the bugs out soon.

    @Jim,
    I don’t know then, it’s weird that it is fine on my ten year old HP box running 10.4.1, but I just tried it on a 2008 dell dual-boot and it gets the same thing you get… Maybe it is something in the required libraries or something… The Dell I just did through wubi but the HP has ben on Ubuntu since Gutsy, so maybe it had some residual libraries or something…
