I have lightly used previous versions of Ubuntu, and this "feature" was not present. But now, with 10.04. I cant install the software I want to install. Namely Steam under Wine. I know I could do the play on linux deal, but I would really like to disable this "feature" entirely. Can I do that, and how?

I am running into a snag on .exe files in Lucid. I have Wine installed, but I can not open the file as it is blocked from executing with a window popping up telling me that this file was blocked due to security reasons. I go into the files properties and try to change the permission but that does not help. Is there a way to get around this? Possibly in the terminal as root?

As root and with my user but it doesn't work.
I want to run minecraft, but when clicking Minecraft.jar it wont cuz of Ubuntu's policy crap. Is there a way to turn this off, because this is worse than Windows UAC. If not, using Java SDK 6, how can I run it? I'm assuming it's a terminal command since wine lets you get around the restrictions with a sudo wine command.

I did a search of the computer for files with "openoffice" in their name, but none would open as an executable. It's not in any menu either.
I have a copy of "Riven" for Windows 95 still laying around, and I decided to see if I could run it in WINE just for the hell of it. I got the following error when I tried to run the "Setup.exe" file (or any other executable on the CD-ROM, for that matter) using WINE:

For more details, read about the executable bit.I read about the executable bit, and while I understand the security reasons for it being there, I would still like to know if there's a way to circumvent it, or even a workaround. I tried chmod on the exe file, but since it's on read only media, that didn't work. I'm running Lucid.
I'm trying to open an executable called qview (a GUI program) from Nautilus. The overall goal is to open a certain file type with it. If I run from terminal, there's no problem, but when I click on it from Nautilus, it doesn't seem to do anything. I changed the ownership to me, to make sure the permissions were set properly.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI can find all kinds of evince files but no executable or "link to executable." I can find all the other ubuntu installs, like gedit, gimp, etc. in my /usr/bin folder. But not evince. Even though Document Viewer runs fine.I need this because I installed Adobe reader (ugh) and it took over as the default .pdf reader. The simple ways of trying to return default application to evince did not work, so I searched here and found a solution (y'all rule) -- edited the mimeapps.list file. Worked great. .pdf files now open in Document Viewer by default again.
Except, Thunderbird is still using Adobe reader as default for pdf files, and to change that I have to browse to the program I want to use instead. (Evince does not show up in the "open with" options I get by right clicking.) Can't browse to evince or enter path because I don't know where it is and can't find it anywhere..

View 9 Replies View RelatedIt so happens that some files that I am trying to make executable by chmod +x <filename> or otherwise are not becoming executables, rather the tick mark on the option is removed the very instant I put it on . Is there any thread of virus or any other reason for this.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI cant make files executable anymore.using chmod or from file properties.. it isn't working.
AS far as I remember, I didn't make any changes in the user settings and my account has the administrator rights. For an un-executable file, say a jpg or a txt, it can be done.but doesn't happen with a .sh, .py or any other xecutable. chmodi-ing shows no error, but the file isn't executable. Through the GUI, when I check the box , its immediately unchecked again.
I downloaded eclipse from the eclipse site..i had to make the main eclipse file executable..but i cant do that..when i click on "Allow executing file as program"..the tick disappears in a second..

I have just installed a program called IDA-STEP on my Ubuntu 10.0.4 LTS system.
It was a manual download from website and I unzipped the program folder to /usr/local/ida-step, and ran the executable to install (./ida-step) it.
Now, every time I want to run the program I have to type "sudo ./ida-step" from within the folder to begin the program as there is no shortcut under Applications (Gnome desktop).
Is there a way to get a shortcut to the program under Applications?
