running limewire
 

I have already installed limewire but i cant figure out how tollaunch the file and run lime wire. i have read thream me file and tried everything in there. what should i do i am a linux newbie

Go to the folder it installed in /root/limewire I think then just click the icon thats named runlimewire...
you can drag and drop the icon to your desktop also and run it from there...

launch LimeWire
 

You should start 'LimeWire' in the directory where you installed LimeWire, not 'runLime.sh'. Make sure you have the rights to execute the program. In KDE I can just click on the file and it starts.
Good Luck!

to run limewire using linux

open up a console window

type su
put in your root password

type ln -s /whereveryouinstalledLimeWire/LimeWire /usr/bin

then everytime you want to run limewire, open up a console and type LimeWire exactly how I have it, and it will run automatically

Create a start-up script:
open an editor and type

#!/bin/bash
cd /home/myhome/LimeWire ( type the path
to your limewire directory)
./LimeWire

Save as lime to /usr/local/bin or /home/bin
start by opening a terminal and typing lime
or add to your menu and desktop
