Install on Ubuntu 13.04

Hello

First of all - I am a complete Noob when it comes to Linux...

I tried to install the Linux version on Ubuntu 13.04 (Installed as 64-bit virtual using Parallels on a Mac), however the setup application just would not start. I did all the things from the Readme file, etc.

I turned out, that I had to start the script by

sudo bash ./setup

(I know - this is one of the little thingies a Linux developer knows but it took me 3 hrs to figure out)

Regards

Thomas

Re: Install on Ubuntu 13.04

Thomas -

The setup script specifies bash itself (first line is #!/bin/bash), so you should need only sudo ./setup. I don't know what version of the Installation Guide you were looking at, but the 8.5.1, 8.5.2, and 8.6 versions shows that sudo ./setup is the command to do the install, so maybe you are looking at 8.5 or earlier documentation?.
