Linux Installation Instructions?
I just bought the Humble Indie Bundle 2, and downloaded cortex_command-amd64-installer-build24.bin but I don't know what to do with it after that. I'm on Ubuntu 9.10 and I believe my architecture is amd64.

Re: Linux Installation Instructions?
Do the following:
- Rightclick the file you downloaded, go to security, select the checkbox "allow execution" or something. - go to terminal, go to the directory where the file is eg "cd Downloads" - type "./cortex_command-amd64-installer-build24.bin", and your done. An installation wizard pops up and helps you isntall it. - Afterwards, to go applications --> games --> Cortex Command, enjoy.

Re: Linux Installation Instructions?
Hello
I get the following error when trying to launch the installer:
NOTICE: Initial Lua setup failed. Cannot continue.
What do I do?

Re: Linux Installation Instructions?
CC is out on Linux. Presumably to match the other stuff in the Humble Indie Bundle.

Re: Linux Installation Instructions?
From what I hear around you'd be better off by running the windows version through wine.

What do I do? The download is corrupted, re-download. Also, indeed, Windows version ran through Wine works almost 2x better...
