LINUXGAMES

i installed an nvidia driver with a ".run" extension yesterday using the "sh" command. I had to stop x-server. Do I need to stop x-server to install quake wars enemy territory?

i tried it without. this is what i got.

"[root@localhost Desktop]# sh etqw.client-1.4-full.x86.run
sh: etqw.client-1.4-full.x86.run: No such file or directory
[root@localhost Desktop]# sh ETQW-client-1.4-full.x86.run
ETQW-client-1.4-full.x86.run: ETQW-client-1.4-full.x86.run: cannot execute binary file"

I'm just coming back to linux so plz be specific about syntax. .

chmod +x filename
./filename

More specifically so you know what you are doing:

chmod +x filename

is making the file executable so you can run it. Once that is done you are able to do "./filename" or "sh filename".
