trying to install nexuiz-251 on jaunty, cannot get synaptic to recognise the downloaded file, add/remove doesnt seem to do it, cannot find an APT address to dload from. have downloaded and unzipped nexuiz-251.zip (twice) tried it zipped, tried it unzipped, and am getting nowhere fast. cannot open nexuiz from the exe file either. I installed the earlier version and the pro version with little problem, only trouble is, I cant really remember how:( can anyone enlighten me? (or even help:))

Hi, go to this (http://www.getdeb.net/app/Nexuiz) page and download the deb package for Jaunty, then double click on it to start the install process.

well, that worked (I think I downloaded the wrong package, i got one yesterday called nexuiz-251.zip) BUT it now says it is incompatible with the older version, so I presume I have to remove that one and install the new one, is there any way I can install the new version to a different folder?
