Goto http://www.legendoftux.com and download the Linux binary (lotux_v0_4.tar.gz)

Save the file to your home directory. By default, Firefox may save the file to your desktop. In that case, move the file to your home directory. I'm using a Live Ubuntu distribution, so my home directory is /home/ubuntu.

 cd Desktop
 cp lotux_v0.4.tar.gz ..


Open a terminal, go to your home directory, and extract the file.

 gzip -d lotux_v0_4.tar.gz
 tar -xvf lotux_v0_4.tar

Go to the release_ubuntu directory, and try to run the executable

 cd release_ubuntu
 ./lotux

It if runs, great!
