For those who don't know there is already an existing approach for osu! on Linux here

https://osu.ppy.sh/community/forums/topics/367783

The reason why I'm making a new one is because mine takes a different approach for those who can't seem to find that method working for them.


Getting osu! to work on Ubuntu.
Setting up your computer

Just remember to paste in these commands into your terminal

  1. sudo apt update
  2. sudo apt install wget winetricks xz-utils wget

This will give your computer the necessary packages to install osu!

Grabbing osu! from my github

Just remember to paste in these commands into your terminal

  1. wget 'https://github.com/Nubbelium/osu-linux/raw/master/osu/OSU.tar.xz'
  2. tar -xJf ./OSU.tar.xz
  3. rm ./OSU.tar.xz
  4. cd ~/Desktop
  5. wget 'https://github.com/Nubbelium/osu-linux/raw/master/osu.desktop'
  6. wget 'https://github.com/Nubbelium/osu-linux/raw/master/osu-installer.txt'
  7. cd /usr/share/applications
  8. wget 'https://github.com/Nubbelium/osu-linux/raw/master/osu.desktop'
  9. cd /usr/share/icons/
  10. wget 'https://github.com/Nubbelium/osu-linux/raw/master/Osu\!Logo_\(2015\).png'


Finalizing installation

Just remember to paste in these commands into your terminal

(there will be a dotnet pop up please say yes accept it)

  1. WINEARCH=win32 winetricks dotnet40
  2. winecfg
    #select windows 8 then click apply then close it
  3. wine ./OSU/osu\!.exe

If osu! runs it worked (congratulations)

PLEASE CHECK THE STARTING TIPS IF osu! WORKS


Creating easier options for wacom tablets.

Based on the Low latency rev 12 Forum linked above I have created a easier to use Wacom Area command

These commands will create a new command that when you type wacomset it will automatically detect your Wacom id and set them to your designated area. (learn more about changing the designated area in the Forum above)

  1. cd
  2. echo "alias wacomset='xsetwacom --set "'$'"(xsetwacom --list devices | grep stylus | cut -d \":\" -f2 | cut -d \"t\" -f1 | tr -d \" \") Area 0 0 6464 4574'" >> ~/.bashrc
  3. source .bashrc

the numbers past the Area ^^^ can be changed to your wishes (see more on the forum above)


Starting Tips

DO NOT
  1. Turn on Shaders
  2. Softening Filter

There WILL be ghost beatmaps that appear on the first opening

to fix this, just refresh your beatmaps with F5
