I am trying to launch Minecraft.jar and I cannot make it boot as an executable. I have gone into the properties and set it to executable, and I have installed jdk-7u55-nb-8-linux-x64.sh with and without superuser. I do run a x64 computer. I recieved the file from the website here. I have tried ./Minecraft.jar
and java -jar Minecraft.jar
Output of java -jar Minecraft.jar
The program 'java' can be found in the following packages:
* default-jre
* gcj-4.6-jre-headless
* gcj-4.7-jre-headless
* openjdk-7-jre-headless
* openjdk-6-jre-headless
Try: sudo apt-get install <selected package>
Output of ./Minecraft.jar
./Minecraft.jar: line 1: $'PK\003\004': command not found
