Download it intact to your directory (usually a good place in /home/{user}/bin Once its there in a command shell type chmod 700 {complete name of .run file} or open up your file manager and find the file and set the permissions. Then either type its name or double click it. -- _____________________________________ ---This space for rent--- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Ok, Tnx. I did set the x bit, but was trying from the command line to do the install. It all worked once I logged in as root .

Better still use: sh name_of.run -- Ken Schneider SuSe since Version 5.2, June 1998 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

I tried that as root after setting x bit, said can't execute binary file. The examples I saw said the same thing but it did not work for me, not sure why. -- Sent from my Suse Desktop (12.1) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
