Acer Aspire One Lux Delux

Lux Delux a risk game for linux, mac, and windows, works on the aspire one, after you download the latest version of java. Whatever java is included on the aspire one sucks, everything I have tried with it, doesn’t work.

Go to java.com and download the RPM self extracting file, after you download it do the below in a terminal. (To get in a terminal type ALT F2 on the desktop and type in xterm.)

cd Downloads
chmod 755 jre-6u7-linux-i586-rpm.bin
sudo ./jre-6u7-linux-i586-rpm.bin

That will install java into /usr/java.

Now to get Lux Delux to work, first obviously download Lux Delux.

Note: If you closed the terminal, you will need to open it, and type “cd Downloads” again.

tar xzvf Lux_Delux-linux.tar.gz
mv LuxDelux ~/
cd ~/LuxDelux
 
# you need to download the Lux.sh file I modified, so it will use the version of java you just installed. Rather then the default java.
 
rm Lux.sh
wget http://vanvalkinburgh.org/files/acer_aspire_one/Lux%20Delux/Lux.sh.txt -O Lux.sh
chmod 755 Lux.sh
./Lux.sh

You can also add Lux Delux to the desktop under games if you want.

You need a terminal open.

wget http://vanvalkinburgh.org/files/acer_aspire_one/Lux%20Delux/lux.desktop
sudo mv lux.desktop /usr/share/applications
sudo cp LuxDelux/LuxIcon.png /usr/share/icons

Now you need to edit .config/xfce4/desktop/group-app.xml, type the below in a terminal.

sudo mousepad .config/xfce4/desktop/group-app.xml

Scroll down to the bottom in that file and do the below.
Under:

<app sequence="10">/usr/share/applications/volleyballey.desktop</app>

Add:

<app sequence="11">/usr/share/applications/lux.desktop</app>

Save the file and reboot, and it should be under games.
