Having trouble installing unreal tournaments on ubuntu.

I am having trouble installing the unreal tournaments demo on my ubuntu computer. How do you install it? The file name is: UT2004-LNX-Demo334.run.gz How do I unzip it? Thanks!!:confused:

Where can I get "gunzip" Thanks!

If I am not mistaken, "gunzip," and "tar" are readily available with most basic Ubuntu installations. Open up your favorite terminal and type the following:

Code:

gunzip -v UT2004-LNX-Demo334.run.gz

-or-

Code:

gunzip -dv UT2004-LNX-Demo334.run.gz

The commands above will uncompress the (*.gz) file, as well as display on screen all actions taken place, to the current working directory. (hence -v for verbose)

You can also uncompress the (*.gz) file with the following tape archive command:

Code:

tar xvzf UT2004-LNX-Demo334.run.gz

This will do the same as previous commands. What you are left with is a UT2004-LNX-Demo334.run file. This demo install can be started using this command:

Code:

./UT2004-LNX-Demo334.run

-or-

Code:

sh UT2004-LNX-Demo334.run

Hope this helps.
