what was the terminal command for that? (sorry just started using Ubuntu)

Edit: I tried using it with "sudo wine osu!.exe" but I think the terminal doesn't like the "!", because it says "bash: !.exe: event not found"
Baspar
Try that:

wine ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/osu\!/osu\!.exe

If you leave wine folder on default, it'll be OK

( And yes, in bash, if there's a space or a ! in a filename, it'll be \! and \(space) )

Well it's outputting a lot of stuff but it basically repeats always "fixme:thread:NtQueryInformationThread info class 16 not supported yet" all the time
Baspar
This isn't a big problem that..
Is there any other error, but without "fixme" on the begenning of the line ?

Have you install all the package listed on the first page ? ( Or on the post above )

What kind of video card? Which driver? When you run the Wine do not need to use the sudo.

err ... can someone tell me a good screen recording programm for linux, which also records the sound from the desktop and/or single windows?
so i maybe could make something like a little video tutorial ... or stuff ^^

I've alwas the same error, and i still play OSU

If the line begin with "fixme", the game can works.

That "fixme" is because of dotnet. But not appearing osu-window clearly shows that it is video-driver error.

Rukarioman, have you installed NVidia/ATI proprietary drivers? If not, install them using "Menu -> System -> Extra drivers" (don't know how exactly it's called in English, 'cause I have Russian version of Xubuntu).
If they are installed, try fully cleaning your wine prefix: enter "winetricks" in terminal, then "select the default wineprefix -> Delete ALL DATA AND APPLICATIONS INSIDE THIS PREFIX" (normally default wineprefix is
/home/%USERNAME%/.wine/
and don't forget to move your osu! folder from there (if it's there), or it will be deleted too).
Then, after cleaning prefix, it will be recreated with default settings. Close winetricks window, then type in terminal window once again:
winetricks corefonts fontfix gdiplus dotnet20
(Well, after "winericks" programs can go in any order, but better just copy-paste that line in you terminal)
After everything is installed, type "winecfg" in terminal and Wine Config window will appear. Select "Audio", and then in DirectSound section set Hardware Acceleration to "Emutation".

Well, after all of this procedures everything is working just perfect on my machine: Intel Pentium 4 3,66 GHz, 1Gb DDRII RAM, NVidia GeForce 8600 GTS. And my system is Xubuntu 11.04, kernel is custom-compiled 2.6.39.1.
If you won't have any problems, that's awesome, if that will be happening again, there is something wrong with your system and/or hardware.

Thank you very much :) My osu initially ran and I could see the main menu window, but I couldn't figure out why the fonts weren't rendering, however, when I ran winetricks corefonts fontfix gdiplus it was fixed. Then I realized the sound was screwed up because everytime I ran it the sound would play for like 10 seconds or so then stop for no apparent reason, but once again your post saved me again by changing DirectSound to "Emulation". Now osu! runs perfectly on Ubuntu :D.

I hope that's not unrelevant.
I successfully installed Osu!, but it won't let me play a song. Suddenly nothing happens and any sound is being muted.
What shall I do?
Baspar
Download your OSZ files, and place them on the folder: "/home/username/.wine/drve_c/Program files/osu !/Songs/"
(Replace username by yours )
When you'll launch OSU, song will be updated , but if it doesn't work, press F5 to force reload.

Maybe it is because of DirectSound hardware acceleration? osu! don't like the "Full" setting, try switching it to "Emulation" in wine config. Or this is something with your sound system (I'm using PulseAudio with ALSA without any problems).
SugoiReborn
I turned it on emulation mode, and it all works perfectly, but it won't let me use text input areas.
What shall I do?

Well, I sometimes have this bug: I couldn't type a text in "search beatmap". However, opening and closing chat (F8) fixes that.

Well, about sound problem: that hangup that "emulation" cures does not occur on pure ALSA (without PulseAudio installed). I just cheked that, set acceleration to "Full" and launched osu -- everything works just like it should.

Installation seems to crash on "Submitting Product Information". Any ideas?

Wine doesn't like osu installation .exe, so only way to run is to get a folder with pre-installed osu. There was one here: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=ZXY2UTL7 (thanks to Nargajuna). Just put folder from archive and try lauhching osu!.exe in it.

Ach! I need to remember to read before bumping next time!

Sorry for the trouble. (Coincidentally this was the workaround idea I had in mind but I was pretty sure nobody would give out pre-installed osu folders.)

Often even less than a line .. I am very troubled

connecting time out
Baspar
Does it happen to you all time ?

Because, on my PC, it happen sometime, but I have to relaunch the game and it works great...

Are other wine game able to connect to servers ?

I have a problem with adding new songs.
I can play everything i had put in in windows, but when i add a new song(i even tried extracting them manualy) i cant play no song.
the menus work, but as soon as i go "ingame" the song freezes while loading.
after deleting the new songs folder, everything works fine again.
edit:
now after rebooting my machine its working
lol

Sorry for my bad english i'm italian :)

I've followed all the instructions in the first page, but osu! doesn't work. When I try to launch the installer with wine, this error appears "The file '/home/malcolm/Documenti/osu!install.exe' is not marked as executable. If this was downloaded or copied from an untrusted source, it may be dangerous to run. For more details, read about the executable bit."

What does it mean? I have ubuntu since few days and I can't still use it properly.
I hope someone could help me :)

Trying to get this to run in Ubuntu 11.04 has been nothing but fail for me. Upon executing the osu! logo appears, promptly disappears and that's it.



Tried this with both mono and dotnet20

That's not their problem. As you can see in terminal, there is some issues with your audio and video cards.
First of all, have you installed NVidia/ATI(AMD) proprietary drivers? It's very important, 'cause GPU doesn't work in full power with standard linux video drivers.
Don't know what to say about audio error, never had it, sorry.

The proprietary drivers are one of the first things I installed.

Hello again, now I have a netbook (1gb RAM, Intel integrated Graphics 256mb) with ubuntu 11.04 and wine but the "Osu!" run at 1 fps, too slow, any suggestions?

I've also tried a lighter distribution of ubuntu, easypeasy, but it seems that net framework is not installed properly and open Osu!, logo appears and then just disappears :(

Another experience I had is that I easypeasy games ran perfectly, even better than windows, Touhou to 60 fps. But in Ubuntu 11.04 games are very slow and do not look good as Touhou



I had stayed with easypeasy but as there was no solution to the problem of Osu and net, I changed

I am writing this on BackTrack 5. Osu! is start but it is reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeally laggy, and slow load time. I think this this will don't work for me, so I am change back to windows now. But it is a good OS anyway, just not for osu!. ._.
SugoiReborn
Well, I've got some serious problems running Osu in Ubuntu 11.10:
1. Bancho won't launch.
2. Beatmaps don't work. When I try to start a beatmap, it just goes to the beatmap and does nothing.
3. When I exit Osu, it makes the resolution stuck and I have to reset my computer for it to resize. I can't change it manually after I exit Osu.

I'm having the same problem but I had resolved in my other computer, the problem is that I do not remember! I think it had more to install a library and the problem of the resolution has to run on a virtual desktop and your problem of bancho I have no idea because it does not start :/

Running it on a virtual desktop fixed my 3rd problem, thanks!
What's now?

Nothing happened

Problem: whenever I start a beatmap, I see the background and nothing happens. I try to return to the menu, I get a black screen and have to force osu to close.

Problem: When I'm going to install, everythigs works right except for the sudo apt-get install cabextract. When I type this, it appears on the screen: "usuario is not on the sudoers file. This incident will be reported." What do I do?

Ok newbe here, but i got it working. let me work on my grammar and get it set up with a pictured guide (tested on 11.10)

It means you do not have super user access. basically it is saying you can not change any system settings. find an account that is admin level and go on with the install. If you do not have admin access talk to the person who helped you with your ubuntu install

Some things to note as i have been messing
opengl seems to kill the back option and edit mode
direcx makes random lag. Edit mode works. and back button works unlike opengl
so opengl for game play and direcx for edit (unless you have a more powerful gpu than me.)

Open a terminal
run the command
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install wine1.3
this will install wine 1.3 and winetricks
next run the command
winetricks

follow the pictures attached


only click the d3dx9 the ones below are apart of that one. < optional. works but game gave me random lag
dotnet20
gdiplus
mono28

click ok and follow any installers that show up
Follow the pictures again

dssound=Emulation
ddr=opengl
sound=alsa

now run the installer.
The installer will say that it failed. but all the files where extracted into the "program files" folder.
run osu! should be in your dash.
in the settings change the graphics to opengl. you might a few error warnings, but it will still start i got no lag with this.
now you have osu on ur ubuntu box

^This tuto don't work for a netbook, you have a better CPU That is the reason that you see is not slow. In OpenGL throws me about 6 fps but in directx I get about 120 to 200 fps, the problem it's i have problem to start a map, this don't start and I know the problem is the audio in wine and its version 1.3, the problem with version 1.2 is that in ubuntu 11.10 does not let you give permission to the file to run as an application

The other problem I have is that I can not install an older version of ubuntu, there comes a time when the installation does not continue

PD: clarified that in my desktop PC in Ubuntu 11.04 goes perfect the only problem I have is in the netbook
