Here are my instructions for installing the NXT client in Ubuntu 18.04. I don't have instructions for fixing the libcurl3/4 issue or the audio crackle if you have those problems. Copy and paste all of the following lines together in to Terminal.

sudo -s -- << EOF
cd ~/Downloads
wget http://launchpadlibrarian.net/161405671/libglew1.10_1.10.0-3_amd64.deb
wget http://launchpadlibrarian.net/233197129/libpng12-0_1.2.54-1ubuntu1_amd64.deb
dpkg -i libglew1.10_1.10.0-3_amd64.deb libpng12-0_1.2.54-1ubuntu1_amd64.deb
wget -O - https://content.runescape.com/downloads/ubuntu/runescape.gpg.key | apt-key add -
mkdir -p /etc/apt/sources.list.d
echo "deb [trusted=yes] https://content.runescape.com/downloads/ubuntu trusty non-free" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/runescape.list
apt-get update
apt-get install -y --allow-unauthenticated libcurl3 runescape-launcher
EOF


I just want to say thank you. It took me longer to manage to reinstall Runescape than everything else combined. I messed something up related to other games over the weekend and decided to completely reinstall Linux. What I had used originally wasn't working (I was getting the icon, but it wouldn't launch). This got it working for me. :)

Hey, this looks a really comprehensive thread - thank you for taking the time.

I'm having issues installing NXT on Ubuntu but hope you can give me a quick pointer please.
I'm getting this when I try to install:

W: GPG error: https://content.runescape.com/downloads/ubuntu trusty InRelease: The following signatures were invalid: AAC9264309E4D717441DB9527373B12CE03BEB4B


Apart from that it looks OK:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
libcurl3 is already the newest version (7.52.1-4ubuntu1.1).
runescape-launcher is already the newest version (2.2.4).
0 to upgrade, 0 to newly install, 0 to remove and 5 not to upgrade.

Thanks

I think thats the same error code I got from what was written on the main site, its for an old version of linux apparently. The code at the top of the this page should work though.

Thanks Emporer, but I'm afraid that I get this *after* running the code at the top. Is the key out of date?

That GPG warning/error doesn't stop the NXT client from installing. The problem is that Jagex is still using a SHA1 signature and Ubuntu 18.04 doesn't like that. Jagex needs to use a better signature. As long as you have Jagex's NXT repository added you will get that warning/error when you do something like sudo apt update or apt-get update in Terminal. To work around the issue of Jagex using a SHA1 signature and Ubuntu objecting to it I added [trusted=yes] to one of the commands I posted so the NXT client would install anyway.

It is possible to not add Jagex's NXT repository and instead directly download and install the DEB package which would avoid that warning/error. The downside of that is if Jagex ever updates the NXT client then if won't automatically update and you will need to download and install it yourself again. I currently don't have the URL for the Linux NXT client download but I might be able to find it by using Google. Or, that might be one of those things that disappeared with the NXT forum.

Bepsmum, the NXT client probably installed OK for you. Try typing runescape-launcher in Terminal to start the game.

Problem with curl3 and curl4 was that both library points to the same file. As pointed in Launchpad bug #1754294, it can be fixed by adding a ppa from a nice guy who went out of his way to fix the issue himself. So in a terminal type:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xapienz/curl34
sudo apt-get update

also, as C0rn3j pointed out in another thread, you can fix the crackling sound by starting the launcher with:

PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=100 runescape-launcher

Hi unixscapers,

I installed the client on Ubuntu 18.04, and I need some help:

- the one from here https://launchpad.net/~hikariknight/+archive/unix-runescape-client/ works beautifully, but crashes in average within half hour (could be 2hr, could be 10min)
- the one suggested by Pinguicula a few posts ago does not seem to crash. However, the rendering is messed up in that objects that were rendered next to your character stay stuck to it afterwards. (For instance a tree I was chopping could follow me to the GE)

For the crashes, is there a way I could capture some log - for me, or to pass on?

Many many thanks and a Happy New Year!!

Radimenion,

HikariKnight's RSU Client Launcher: You can open Terminal and start it by typing
runescape
and when it crashes it might show some output in Terminal that gives a hint about the problem.

Jagex's NXT Client: You can open Terminal and start it by typing
runescape-launcher
and when it crashes it might show some output in Terminal that gives a hint about the problem but it probably won't show anything.

What graphics system do you have? What graphics driver are you using? Your problem with the NXT client seems related to the graphics driver. Using a different graphics driver, if possible, might help. When the NXT client has problems the Java client (RSU Client Launcher) might work OK but I read the Java client is crashing on your computer. The Java client might have problems with your graphics driver, too. For the NXT client there is a line that can be changed in the runescape-launcher script by doing
sudo gedit /usr/bin/runescape-launcher
in Terminal and changing the number in
export MESA_GL_VERSION_OVERRIDE=3.0
from 3.0 to 2.1 Save the change and close the text editor program. Then try to start the NXT client. That helps some NXT client users who have graphical problems.
