Guest trainershane Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 PRO Username: Do you have active membership?: Yes Your knowledge about PRO: Beginner What have you done before the problem was there? I downloaded the client specifically for Linux but Linux said it could not open/unzip the file type. I know nothing about Linux and only put it on my chromebook for this game. Anyone have any advice/help? What have you already tried to solve the problem?

Guest trainershane Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 It said something to the effect that the file type was not supported. I was using Squeeze and able to get the Linux version of firefox, I just hit extract here and it opened, but I cannot do that with PRO. Im trying to learn it, as frustrating as it can be, but I have a Chromebook so not much else in terms of options.

Sage Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Hello there, While im not familiar with the chromebook i can tell you how to work the Linux version. This is what I do for Debian/Ubuntu/Mint Linux Download Unzip Right Click PROLinux64_93_3.x86_64 Click On Properties From Properties click Permissions Tab Check the box that says " Execute: [ ] Allow executing file as program " Click on Close (to close the properties box) then i click on the file and it starts right up Link to comment https://pokemonrevolution.net/forum/topic/13724-need-help-installing-linux-version/#findComment-105782 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest trainershane Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Thats where I was getting stuck, I could not unzip the file. I hit extract here for a Firefox zip file and it opened right up, but I could not unzip the PRO file. I tried clicking it and using the text prompt(which I haven't completely figured out yet) and I could not un zip it.

Guest trainershane Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 I was finally able to unzip the file. I had to switch and download it on ChromeOS, then switch to Linux and unzip it. Howver now I have a new problem. When I go to launch the program after checking the box, only a black screen briefly flashes, but nothing else really happens and it wont launch.
