I just got ubuntu 13.10 today and I am trying to install minecraft, I saw the way that is suggested here: How to install Minecraft (Client) and tried it and it worked till when I opened minecraft, it would show that it was running, but I couldn't see minecraft its self. Did I forget to type a command that shows minecraft on my computer?

Wow, that answer is crazy overcomplicated. All you need to do is follow the simple instructions on minecraft.net: download Minecraft.jar, and run it with java -jar Minecraft.jar. If you don't already have java installed, then install it with sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jre

Error: Unable to access jarfile Minecraft.jar I get this when I try to run it. – Zack Clements Feb 14 '14 at 21:47

@KnightZack, you need to be in the directory where you downloaded the file to, or specify the path to it. – psusi Feb 14 '14 at 23:38

These are no longer the instructions posted on the Minecraft website. Which is basically "download an run a .deb file". – YetAnotherRandomUser Dec 05 '21 at 16:06
