Tried that, didn't work. The deb file I listed however did work.

Also, trying dotnet40 instead of dotnet20 this time.

dotnet40 works in the latest cutting edge, peppy fixed it :D

Was really simple to install on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. Just make sure you have a 32 bit wine, install dotnet 2.0, and run the new osu installer. I ran it from a folder i made in drive_c/Program Files.

Only issue is audio delay, something i am having with cs:go running natively aswell, so i blame pulseaudio. Other then that, it works great! Some icons are missing, though.

EDIT: The audio play buttons on the main menu are GONE. Dunno why. Not enough to create a bug report really, but hey, if peppy is still here, take note.

Hello, :)

I can't find anything similar to my issue in the previous entries. The game itself is playable, I can finish a map and still get my normal scores. The menu is flawless but when it comes to playing a map the components (sliders, hitnotes, etc..) for all modes stutters and is a bit laggy even though the FPS is quite high. I read in Wine AppDB page that installing GDI+ will help a few effects. Will installing GDI+ help this issue?


Works in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and Wine 1.7.38.

Thanks. :D

Hi there,
I have a problem for few days, I'm using POL, but after reinstal osu with net install, old install, with dotnet4.0, 3.5 and 2.0 and of course Xna 31/40 give me same information:
Could not find any resources appropriate for the specofed culture or neutral culture. 
Make sure  "Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Resources.resources" was correctly embedded or linked into 
assembly "osu!" at compile time,  or that all the satellite assemblies required are loadable and fully signed"
I tried found solution but without any result... Please help me :)

This is my log:

Hey all! Just have to say: excellent game! Running on Arch Linux x86_64 with wine-silverlight, and used "winetricks dotnet35 gdiplus" (in a 32-bit winebottle, of couse) and everything seems to be OK :)

One small problem though: I have a ThinkPad X201 Tablet and my stylus' lag is incredible. I've never noticed it before because I've never been moving it this fast :o
Does anyone have an idea how to increase polling rates on serial Wacom tablets? I'm having a hard time finding information around the internet on how to do this. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

EDIT: I figured out what I needed to do. Since the Wacom on my laptop is serial, I recompiled my kernel with a 1000 Hz tickrate, increased the baudrate on it from 19200 to 38400, enabled low_latency on it's serial port and dropped the raw sample rate to 1 and disabled suppression.
Needless to say there is no lag on the stylus anymore :P

while osu! runs on linux in wine it's not gonna be playable, only if peppy will release native version...

Ok, I get it.
On kubuntu/ubuntu and other debian like systems osu works, but problem is with debian. Idk why, beacause packets are the same...

Tested and worked on Ubuntu 15.04 (Vivid) perfectly fine. Thanks man :)

One small thing, some unicode characters from different languages (Japanese, Vietnamese, etc.) does not display properly. For example, Japanese characters turned into weird squares, and most of Vietnamese characters is not displayed (some works though). Anyway to fix?

EDIT: Reinstall Wine fixed the Vietnamese problem (ttf-mscorefonts-installer missing files), but Japanese characters still appear as weird blank boxes, screenshots below:



Any solution?

Mine were too until I removed my .wine32 today since it was being dumb and wouldn't run osu! for whatever reason. While rebuilding the wineprefix, I ran
WINEPREFIX=~/.wine32 WINEARCH=win32 winetricks -q dotnet20 dotnet40 gdiplus corefonts cjkfonts
and most characters started working that never worked before. Weird part is corefonts and cjkfonts never worked before I nuked the wineprefix, and some Kanji still show up as empty boxes. Better than it was before, though!



EDIT: I just realised that I "borrowed" some fonts from a Windows 7 machine and put them in ~/.local/share/fonts. That might have done it too.

Literally the whole C:\Windows\Fonts. Probably unnecessary to take all of them (1,240 fonts!), but I guess it did the trick :D

I'll also note that they weren't working until I nuked ~/.wine32. Just remember to move osu! somewhere safe (I have mine placed in ~/Games/osu!) before you accidentally delete it!

Ironically, now only JAPANESE displays as weird blank box. Both Korean and Chinese (Simplified and Traditional) worked fine. Tried to install fakejapanese :

WINEPREFIX=~/.wine32 WINEARCH=win32 winetricks -q fakejapanese

It'll pop out some Takao fonts in the ~/.wine32/drive_c/windows/Fonts. Also tried to manually copy those files to the ~/.local/share/fonts but no use. Any idea?

argh! The latest update requiring dotnet 4.5.2 broke wine! Installing dotnet20 on a 32 bit prefix then dotnet 45 gives me an error saying dotnet20 is already installed!

I really doubt it. net framework is ONLY windows. The devs would need to port osu to an engine (godot or unity?) and deploy from there or use a platform independent language like C++. I don't understand why they update to the latest net framework when I don't notice any new game features being dependent on them.

You forgot about mono. The devs probably just need to replace Windows-only dependencies and windows-only code.

Try to run osu! like this:
WINEPREFIX=/path/to/prefix LANG="ja_JP.UTF8" wine path/to/osu.exe

You really can't since 1: microsoft owns that code 2: it is compiled and takes work to decompile.

What osu relies on besides net framework is windows libraries. It's the software interface the OS provides to programs for different features (like getting system time or accessing a usb device). Linux and other *nix/UNIX oses try to be POSIX compliant which means all (or most) programs work on all similar OSes. That's why you can run x program on all linux distros. Windows doesn' try to be POSIX compliant. It can be, but you are porting linux libraries to windows and stacking things on top instead of actually fixing the problem.

Anyone got a fix for net 4.5.2? :x

Yeah that's exactly why osu! is working on OSX natively right now, because it's not possible.

I really doubt it. net framework is ONLY windows. The devs would need to port osu to an engine (godot or unity?) and deploy from there or use a platform independent language like C++. I don't understand why they update to the latest net framework when I don't notice any new game features being dependent on them.
OS X and Linux osu will be using monogame and run under mono framework and OpenGl.

No osx version is portable WINE at the moment people are also complaining about bad performances and latencies.
Mono is mainly developed for Linux but also for Mac.

I meant the native version currently in development.

Anyone got a fix for net 4.5.2? :x
I fixed it by making a fresh WinePrefix, installing dotnet45 with:
$ WINEPREFIX="PATH/TO/PREFIX" winetricks -q dotnet45 corefonts

Afterwards installing osu (as usual) with:
$ WINEPREFIX="PATH/TO/PREFIX" wine osu!install.exe
but with this it still had unplayable performance.
To fix that i simply changed the update stream to experimental/cutting-edge and restarted osu!.

Now it's playable again :)

(I have a Ubuntu 14.04 64-Bit System and wine 1.7.44)

Hope this helps :D

Edit: One drawback i just noticed, is that you need a supporter tag to play multiplayer in the experiemental update stream!

Oh wow. At least we're getting somewhere!
It'll pop out some Takao fonts in the ~/.wine32/drive_c/windows/Fonts. Also tried to manually copy those files to the ~/.local/share/fonts but no use. Any idea?
It has to be C:\Windows\Fonts from a Windows computer, not the wineprefix. I'll have to dig around and see what fonts are really needed. You also need to refresh your font cache after you add fonts to ~/.local/share/fonts otherwise they won't show up at all. Logging out and logging back in should do the trick if you're using a DE.

While that is true, based peppy has been moving stuff over to MonoGame AFAIK, which will make it cross-platform. :)

So I tried copying some Sazanami and Kochi (Gothic and Mincho) but no works. Also I've been logging on and off, restarting the machine, even nuking the wineprefix to do everything from scratch. No works at all.

Oh well, at least I can see some Korean characters in game chat :D

I finally managed to run osu!

I'm a complete noob and I could not install it because:

1) When I installed .net 2.0, and then tried to run osu installer, it said: "Hi! Could not install .NET. Click here to manually install and download."
2) I though that maybe I had to upgrade .NET to 4.5, but I had to install dotnet30 first, and it gave me a setup error every time.
3) I tried PlayOnLInux approach but of course it also gave me an error...

So I finally tried to run osu that I used on windows and which I copied to linux. I followed what this good person said in the first few minutes of this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7RwEBXVx7UU and I finally managed to run osu!

So if you're as mentally challenged as I am and get errors every time you do something, then download osu! on windows (maybe ask a friend if you don't have windows yourself), copy the whole folder to linux, follow the steps from the aforementioned video and enjoy osu!.

I have to run osu from the terminal, but it's not a such a big deal and probably there is a better way to do this which I don't know (I made a script and it seems to work.

Hopefully everyone else can use the installer and don't have to use such primitive methods, and hopefully it's ok to run osu like that.

Thank you for reading my cool story.

Shit, I don't get this at all. Not to bash on that dude's English, but I couldn't follow the directions at all. I'm a noob at Linux, so that's probably why. Anyway, I already have a windows installation of osu! from a while back and I put it in my wine folder for osu!. What do I do now?

Ok, I'll tell you everything I had to do in order to play osu!. I use Ubuntu 14.04 btw, but it should work on most linux versions. Anyway, that's what you have to do in order to play osu! using this method:

1) Install osu! on windows and copy the entire folder to your linux folder. It doesn't have to be a wine folder. In fact, I'd say that it is better if it is not there. I have my osu! folder on a different partition and it works great. Wherever you put it, remember the path to your osu! folder.

2) Download and install wine. It should work on most wine versions, I use 1.6.2 and it works.

3) Navigate to your home folder and press ctrl+H. It'll show hidden folders. Look for a folder named .wine (notice the dot). If this folder was made as a 32-bit folder, then I guess you can skip this step and step 4 (not sure though). If it's 64-bit or you don't know whether it's 32 or 64, then rename the old .wine folder to something else, like .wine2. If you don't have the .wine folder, then you can move on to step 4.

4) Open the terminal (ctrl+alt+T on ubuntu) and copy & paste the following command:

WINEARCH=win32 winecfg

It'll make a new .wine folder with a 32-bit prefix. You need a 32-bit version to install .NET in the next step.

5) When wine finishes making the new .wine folder, go to terminal again and put in this command:

winetricks dotnet20

This will download and install .NET required to run the game. Follow the instructions and install it.


Congratulations! Now you can play osu!. Go to your osu! folder and double click the exe file, or right-click -> open with -> wine.

I guess you could create a shortcut on your desktop, but I have no idea how to do it. Just keep in mind that I'm a linux noob myself, so there's probably a better way to do all this.

Thank you so much! This is the first time I've been able to even get it running.

Unfortunately it seems to be running very poorly. I tried switching to OpenGL and it refused to let me do so, and I couldn't switch to Cuttingedge either. I tried changing both of those settings in the config file but that didn't work. Also, the player controls are missing.

Oh well, if I can't figure it out I suppose I could just dual-boot.

Try doing this:

WINEPREFIX=~/.wine WINEARCH=win32 winecfg

Open the Graphics tab, turn on both the "Capture mouse...blah blah blah sth" and "Use Native DirectX 9 ... blah blah blah" or something like that (remember to turn on both). It is much less laggy and actually pretty nice to play without any delay of input.
