My commands in the Terminal are as follows:
ragweed@ragweed-den:~$ sudo chmod +x realplayer11GOLD.bin[sudo] password for ragweed:
chmod: cannot access `realplayer11GOLD.bin': No such file or directory
ragweed@ragweed-den:~$ sudo chmod +x realplayer11GOLD.bin.tar.gz
chmod: cannot access `realplayer11GOLD.bin.tar.gz': No such file or directory
ragweed@ragweed-den:~$ cd /home/ragweed/Desktop/
ragweed@ragweed-den:~/Desktop$ sudo chmod +x RealPlayer11GOLD.bin.tar.gz
ragweed@ragweed-den:~/Desktop$ sudo RealPlayer11GOLD.bin.tar.gz
sudo: RealPlayer11GOLD.bin.tar.gz: command not found
ragweed@ragweed-den:~/Desktop$ sudo apt-get install pulse-utils
E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
ragweed@ragweed-den:~/Desktop$ padsp realplay
exec: 88: realplay: not found
ragweed@ragweed-den:~/Desktop$
The file is "RealPlayer11GOLD.bin.tar.gz" as well as "RealPlayer11GOLD.bin" on my desktop, as I'm sure you can see. Also,
I'd tried both using command both ways. Neither works.
To be honest, I, as with many, learn far better by doing it from simple but precise directives, rather than from text with so
many variables, as with the page you suggested.
What changes should I make in my commands to get this to work?
This is a difference between *NIX and DOS; the current directory is
not searched for binaries etc, for security reasons; you don't want a
random file called 'ls' executed if it's in the current directory.
You need to put ./ in front of your commands;
ragweed@ragweed-den:~/Desktop$ sudo ./RealPlayer11GOLD.bin.tar.gz
Should work :)
Don't put . in your path though, it's a Bad Idea.
