Sorry to take over the topic but, Yeah, I figured that...

It turns out that I'm trying to bring my brother (13 y.o.) to linux but can't MAKE minecraft run in wine

I've tried Minetest for him, but not the same.

Does any of the GURUs around recommend anything??
Thanksin advance!!

Just download the Linux version from the official Mincraft site: https://minecraft.net/download - It's just a .jar file so you will just need to run that.Quote from: camerongray on July 21, 2014, 08:16:43 PM
