[13:18] djiefo, you're crossposting, that is not good manners [13:18] oh ok [13:18] no idea. I found that link above === gnap_ is now known as gnap [13:22] bazhang, its not working on xu11 [13:23] i mean i created the launcher, but the command line is wrong because its not working at all [14:14] Someone can help me? I've been on this problem for so long... :( [14:14] I'm using xubuntu 11.04. Minecraft runs well :) The only thing is that I linked minecraft.jar in the desktop, but I can't change the icon in fil properties. I tried to create a launcher but i dunno wich command to write. The main file path is: /home/djiefo/minecraft.jar [14:15] the .jar is a java application, I don't know how to create a launcher to start them [14:16] yeah... same :( [14:16] Try looking in /usr/share/applications/minecraft using mousepad to see what the exec= says [14:16] but , as a .jar, you might not be able to change their icon [14:18] theres any way to create a shortcut to a terminal command in desktop? [14:18] yes, there is [14:18] I font have enough knowledge to run in throught terminal so [14:19] path is: /home/djiefo/minecraft.jar [14:19] java6 [14:19] create the launcher, click on run in terminal [14:20] what could be the corext command syntax? [14:20] correct* [14:20] if you are on Xubuntu 11.04, create the launcher, right click after you finish, click edit (the pencil), click on "run in terminal" [14:21] what is the exact command you use in terminal? [14:21] i'm not using any command to it, I create a link to the desktop [14:21] It runs well [14:21] But not the good icon [14:22] i just dunno wich command use for runs it through terminal [14:22] I don't know either. I don't have the game [14:22] what did it say the exec was? [14:22] it runs with Java [14:23] so, it said exec= java ? [14:25] charlie-tca, The file '/home/djiefo/Desktop/Minecraft0.desktop' is not marked as executable. If this was downloaded or copied from an untrusted source, it may be dangerous to run. For more details, read about the executable bit. [14:26] right click it, open with.... mousepad [14:26] whats mousepad? [14:26] i dont have it [14:26] did minecraft create the launcher or did you? [14:26] mousepad is the editor in Xubuntu [14:26] Whjat [14:27] What are you using? [14:27] Ubuntu, Kubuntu, ??? [14:28] minecraft is a java game... im using xubuntu 11.04... When u download the game from source it's called minecraft.jar you need to install Java6 to run it. [14:28] If you are using Xubuntu, you have mousepad [14:28] Then I don't know how to run it in terminal. [14:28] i don't see any mousepad by click clicking on minecraft.jar [14:29] apparently, I don't have the game [14:29] right clicking [14:29] huh ok [14:29] I would guess you can not change the icon, since it is a jar file [14:29] I know that now. [14:29] But how to create a redirect to it [14:30] Like a shortcut that automaticly runs the file minecraft.ar in path: /home/desktop/minecraft.jar [14:31] I could change the icon of this redirect cause i will not be a JAR it will be a shortcut [14:38] Maybe someone else will know how to do that. I don't think I have any .jar files, myself [14:40] java -Xmx1024M -Xms512M - jar ~/home/djiefo/Minecraft.jar net.minecraft.LauncherFrame [14:40] ...not working [14:43] i tried sudo java - jar ~/home/djiefo/Minecraft.jar net.minecraft.LauncherFrame in terminal... not working [14:46] i mean if I could bu atleast able to run it trough terminal it will give me the command to enter in the launcher editory === dell is now known as wakan === gnap_ is now known as gnap [17:13] Anyone got experience with Trackballs?
