Install/Run SIA-UI on Linux

[firsttube]

I downloaded Sia-UI for Linux 64-bit. When I extract the zip file and double-click Sia-UI nothing happens. I'm using Linux Mint 17.3. A box pops-up saying "Unknown file type" and when I click the button "Make executable and run" nothing happens?

How do you get the UI to run on Linux?

Hi,

it runs by me on Ubuntu fine

This happens sometimes when executables are zipped, I don't know why, but their content type changes to .so. Is there a button to run it in a terminal? If so, please click that and put the output here.

If that doesn't work you can right-click the directory where sia-ui is in and choose "Open in Terminal", then in the terminal window type ./Sia-UI and it should start.
