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 mv 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!
If you get the message below:
./lotux: error while loading shared libraries: libSDL_mixer-1.2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Then perform the following steps:
Run Synaptic Package Manager (should be under System => Administration)
Enter "SDL" in the Quick Search, and find "libsdl-mixer1.2" in the list. Click the box next to it, and select "Mark for installation".
Select "Mark" on the screen to install the additional packages.
Click the "Apply" button.
Press "Apply" on the next screen.
Press "Close" when it says it is okay to do so.
Try running ./lotux again, and it should now work.
