Hi,

I managed to download squeak all in one to a Linux computer running
Ubuntu 12.04 (new to Linux). I made the necessary files executable,
made Squeak run headless.

It works if I double click squeak.sh in the GUI.

If I open a terminal, CD into the Squeak folder and type "squeak.sh" I
get a "command not found".

Never felt so newbie in decades :-))

Thanks,

Herbert

This rings a bell. If you're on a 64-bit it may through that as the squeakvm file can't run. I had some mismatches in VirtualBox, where I had to get a different appliance to run the 32-bit vm. I don't recall the details exactly, but I remember that being a problem.

OK, here's the relevant part in the squeak.sh script:

if [ "$CPU" = x86_64 ] ; then
        CPU=i686
echo Running 32-bit Squeak on a 64-bit System. Hope the 32-bit runtime libraries are installed ...
fi


It is possible for a 32-bit/64-bit mismatch. I'd look to that first, as I had this problem, but otherwise I find ./squeak.sh to be pretty reliable for starting.
