Discord Moderator plowmanplow Posted June 13, 2014 Discord Moderator Share Posted June 13, 2014 The technic launcher doesn't really "install" and therefore does not need a package. It is just a jar file which you execute. From the command line (or a desktop link you make) you would run: java -jar TechnicLauncher.jar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GenPage Posted June 13, 2014 Share Posted June 13, 2014 The technic launcher doesn't really "install" and therefore does not need a package. It is just a jar file which you execute. From the command line (or a desktop link you make) you would run: java -jar TechnicLauncher.jar That is correct. The launcher uses java and is not a native linux program.

Discord Moderator plowmanplow Posted June 14, 2014 Discord Moderator Share Posted June 14, 2014 When referencing a specific jar with "-jar" the target file must be in the current folder or must be referenced with a valid path. So, if you had the TechnicLauncher.jar file in a subdirectory called ".Desktop" in your home directory the correct syntax would be: java -jar ~/.Desktop/TechnicLauncher.jar levap200 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andydrummmer21 Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 First you should install the Java Runtime Enviroment (jre) by typing something like "apt-get install openjdk-7-jre" or "aptitude install openjdk-7-jre". Then download the Technic/Minecraft jar file, and put it on your desktop. Right click on it and go to the Permissions tab, then click the box that says "Allow executing file as program". Next, in the same window click the "Open With" tab and select OpenJDK Java 7 Runtime. After doing all of that you should be able to click it to run. This is how I run Technic and Minecraft on Ubuntu, and Ubuntu is based on Debian. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now i can play my fav packs. Really thanks! not that trying to be helpful is a bad idea, but it looks like you didn't actually read the thread before posting. also, while ubuntu is based on debian, they are not nearly as similar as you seem to believe.

Discord Moderator plowmanplow Posted December 7, 2014 Discord Moderator Share Posted December 7, 2014 You don't run the launcher JAR directly. You pass the launcher JAR to the java executable as a command line parameter. Reference the previous posts for precise syntax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
