Ubuntu 9.10 - How to execute a .run program?
Issue
Let me know how to execute a program. run Ubuntu 9.10 (what are the drivers for my video card)
Ubuntu tries to open with Wine, but I can not find "the interpreter installation" somehow to select the default application.
Solution
Open a terminal, go to the directory where your. run, make it executable (ls-l), otherwise give it executable:
chmod u + x your_programun
Guns it:
sudo. / your_programun

Thanks to jipicy for this tip.
