In Ubuntu, you must prepend 'sudo' to any command that requires admin rights I believe. Do a search on it.

figured that one out on saturday too

New problem is i cant run the executible (.elf) even when typing sudo. Im going to post the error next time i start mucking. hopefully someone will read it lol.

I remember I had these same problems when setting up a goserver on Ubuntu. I think you need to set that you have execute rights on goserver.elf so that you are able to run it. I am not sure of the command though.

Thanks,

You can use apt-get to automatically download and install them.

Got the Cpp lib, now cant get app to run:S it runs, creates all the new folders, but nothing happens, Is there a patch i might have missed that would cause this?
