Distributed.net client won't launch...

[fallenang3l]

I downloaded Linux x86/ELF version of the distributed client, I unpacked it and to a directory in my home directory, but when I click on dnetc executable nothing happens!

try opening a terminal and starting from the command line, like ./dnetc

see what happens, i have only used the RC5 client in BeOS, but that is how i did it

Thank you... is there any way of making the terminal start up when you click the exe file?

I usually copy it to my base directory "/" and put "/dnetc -quiet" in my "/etc/rc.d/rc.local" file. After running "dnetc -config" to set it up of course, gotta have the correct email address in there :)
If you want to set it up to read the config files and all that from another directory there at least used to be directions for that on distributed.net but I can't seem to find them at the moment.
