Default Install on linux ?

Hello

Is there a way to install it on linux (ubuntu) ? Anyone tried? I think not, as I did not find any tutorial for that.

Ive installed p99 on Mint Cinammon and had no issues at all. Theres a few guides around, heres a couple of them:

One thing to take note Linux is case sensitive with files and everytime you patch you need to rename dsetup.dll to DSETUP.dll

The first part is true, but the second depends on what unzip program you use. I use whatever comes with Linux Mint, and I've never needed to rename files.

Its been a long time since I used Linux, over 6 years ago and I had to rename it every patch. Im really novice with linux so dont know the intricacies with zip programs. There have been several people that posted problems patching that have Linux and usually the fix is renaming dsetup to be uppercase so definitely something to be aware of if you use Linux
