**cucetyy** · 31-Jul-2014, 03:54

Hello

I'm new here and I'm new in Linux, so there are many things that I don't understand and don't know. I have to install Eagle CAD 7 on my laptop but I don't know how. I searched for some info in google but I couldn't find a solution. So please, could you help me? Thank you

Hi
It's a run file (self extracting zip), so either make it executable (chmod command) or you can use the sh command to start it.

So open a terminal and the cd to the download location and run either;

Code:

sh eagle-lin-7.0.0.run

or

chmod 0755 eagle-lin-7.0.0.run
./eagle-lin-7.0.0.run

Hey again,
Thank you for the fast answer. I did this but it says :

Code:

Checksum error in 'eagle-lin-7.0.0.run'

Hi
If it displayed that error and no gui type installer screen, then you have a faulty or incomplete download. Delete the file and re-download. Then run the command again.
