what do you mean by 3rd partie software there are three tabs:
Ubuntu software
othersoftware
Updates
Authentication
I meant Other software, it is the same as 3rd Party software.

Ubuntu instructions:

1. go to System > Administration > Software Sources
2. Click the Third-Party Software at the top
3. Click the Add button, and enter the code below Code: [Select]ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa4. Then click the close button and let it refresh if it WANTS. Close Software sources
5. Now open Synaptic PACKAGE Manager
6. Search wine and it should find it (wine) now.
7. Mark it for installation and click apply
It should now install.
After you install follow these instructions carefully.ok so i did that thanks! know to instal playonlinux should i use the one on my usb or should i install from ubuntu software center?Quote from: comda on April 21, 2010, 06:49:53 PM

First of all I'd like to say that you don't need PlayOnLinux to play your games. Wine is all that is needed, now that you have Wine all you really have to do is double-click the exe to install it.

However PlayOnLinux is a graphical front-end for Wine, but the advantage is that is adds in extra goodies to help your games run better & is easier to use for the beginner. So it is better for you to use PlayOnLinux.

There are several ways to install PlayOnLinux, I recommend this:
1. Open Terminal (located in Accessories menu)
2. paste Code: [Select]sudo wget http://deb.playonlinux.com/playonlinux_karmic.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/playonlinux.list and hit enter. type your user password and hit enter again.


3. When it is finished enter following command and hit enterCode: [Select]sudo apt-get update

4. When the last step has completed use this command Code: [Select]sudo apt-get install playonlinux

PlayOnLinux should now be installed successfully. You could have also installed from the FILE on your flash drive. But the advantage with this way is that you'll also get the latest version updated. ok yeah before instalation of playonlinux and after my games would not work. When i click the GTA vc exe file it loads archive manager and gives and error.I downloaded playonlinux from ubuntu software center. Anyway I will TRY again. I also have WINE installed for its on the applications folder or dropdown menu. Not the beta though.Okay, let me know how it goes.still the same thing look to be honest I did work the first time I did instal ubuntu. And i will try again for the reason i reinstalled it was i didn't make the partition big enough. I will reinstall ubuntu try to install wine again and let you know. Thanks for helping me in advance I'm just tired of win xp. ok I reinstalled it and marked WINE in the package manager but I don't seem to find WINE in the app menu so i will download it from ubuntu software center
OK I got GTA VC to work but It works good for a few seconds gets choppy and then works good and folllwos a pattern. Other than that Every thing works could there be a way to make it work perfectly like it did on win xp?Did install GTA VC with Wine or PlayOnLinux?
