I have used the torrent to download quake and some other games and I'm stuck I have tried chmod 755 quake.run . and can't find the directory. The .run is on my desktop

Open up an Applications==>Accessories-->Termainl and type:


chmod +x ~/Desktop/quake.run

just to make sure the file is executable, then in the same terminal type:


~/Desktop/quake.run
