I download the SkaleTracker RAR file using Mozilla. I then run unrar t Skale076wFixed.rar and it tells me exerything is OK, so I run unrar e Skale076wFixed.rar and it extracts. I then made it executable -rwxr-xr-x 1 mark mark 673375 Sep 17 00:18 Sk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx and try running it, but I get: bash-2.05b$ ./Sk\@le076wFixed.rh9 This is the first version running under Linux. Maybe it's useless by now because there are important details that could make to run slow the program under some machines, I hope to resolve them in the next release; with this version I hope to get enought info to make this Linux version stable and usefull. This program is FREE Until version 1.0 some features has been disabled and other ones are incomplete. This is a BETA version. Use it at your own risk. Send comments, suggestions or bugs to: bugs@xxxxxxxxx Sk@le official website is http:\\www.skale.org Enjoy it!!!!!. baktery Default skin file corrupted bash-2.05b$ There was a post to this effect on their forums, but it had no answer to the problem other than to try downloading again, which I did. I'll keep thrashing around a bit. Maybe there's a path to getting a new default skins file somewhere. I might have seen that somewhere. Cheers, Mark
