It seems to work better with root, but that is not satisfactoring because: a. it will not be preferable to run a file with root, if it is not necessary; b. it is sometimes possible to start the file without root; c. I have not tested, if it is always possible to start it with root or if it is may-be crashing even so.

When I switch to the fullscreen mode (and that happens only with giana), my pc is crashing and must be rebooted. I mostly noticed this bug, when I had started Giana once before. Maybe the programme doesn't finish completely. It would be nice, if you fixed it. The Ubuntu-32 version is still buggy.

For 64bit take the file 'giana_ubuntu64'. 1. Download the zip folder and store it on your computer, e.g. in ~/Downloads. 2. Unzip the data stuff to the folder you like to, e.g. '/opt/gianasreturn-1.0'. You can use the package 'unzip' or another one. user@name:~$ sudo mkdir /opt/gianasreturn-1.0 [sudo] password for user: user@name:~$ cd ~/Downloads user@name:~/Downloads$ sudo unzip gr-v1001-ubuntu.zip -d /opt/gianasreturn-1.0 3. Change the file mode bits, so that the file can be explored. user@name:~/Downloads$ cd /opt/gianasreturn-1.0 && ls user@name:/opt/gianasreturn-1.0$ sudo chmod +x giana_ubuntu32 4. Explore the file via shell and enjoy it. user@name:/opt/gianasreturn-1.0$ cd ~ user@name:~$ xterm -e 'cd /opt/gianasreturn-1.0 && ./giana_ubuntu32 -fs # the fs option is for fullscreen mode) user@name:~$ xterm -e 'cd /opt/gianasreturn-1.0 && ./giana_ubuntu32 -fs' 5. You can use the order xterm -e 'cd /opt/gianasreturn-1.0 && ./giana_ubuntu32 -fs' even for a starter on the desktop or an entrance in the main menu. That looks complicated, but the programme is a little buggy in this way: all paths are relative to the current directory. The xterm detour does not care about that. 6. (not necessary!) Another way is to write a little shell script. Open your editor (for example 'gedit'). The gedit file should look like this: #!/bin/sh cd /opt/gianasreturn-1.0 ./giana_ubuntu32 -fs Save it as '~/run.sh'. Go back to the shell. user@name:~$ gedit (gedit:3289): Bonobo-WARNING **: Bonobo must be initialized before use user@name:~$ Move the file to your gianas folder and change the file mode bits user@name:~$ sudo mv ~/run.sh /opt/gianasreturn-1.0/run.sh user@name:~$ sudo chmod +x /opt/gianasreturn-1.0/run.sh Run the script user@name:~$ /opt/gianasreturn-1.0/run.sh 6. You can use the order /opt/gianasreturn-1.0/run.sh even for a starter on the desktop or an entrance in the main menu. Thanks to "VC1581"!!! This example is for 32bit file ‘giana_ubuntu32′. For 64bit take the file ‘giana_ubuntu64′.

2. Unzip the data stuff to the folder you like to, e.g. ‘/opt/gianasreturn-1.0′. You can use the package ‘unzip’ or another one.

[sudo] password for user:
user@name:~$ cd ~/Downloads

3. Change the file mode bits, so that the file can be explored.

user@name:/opt/gianasreturn-1.0$ sudo chmod +x giana_ubuntu32

Save it as ‘~/run.sh’.
Go back to the shell.

user@name:~$ gedit
(gedit:3289): Bonobo-WARNING **: Bonobo must be initialized before use
user@name:~$

Move the file to your gianas folder and change the file mode bits

user@name:~$ sudo mv ~/run.sh /opt/gianasreturn-1.0/run.sh
user@name:~$ sudo chmod +x /opt/gianasreturn-1.0/run.sh

Run the script

user@name:~$ /opt/gianasreturn-1.0/run.sh

6. You can use the order
/opt/gianasreturn-1.0/run.sh
even for a starter on the desktop or an entrance in the main menu.
