Trying to install Jahkasha... Shouldn't this be easy?!

[Kangaji]

Hey folks,

So I just started using Ubuntu, and now I'm trying to install some video editing software called "Jahkasha". I keep trying and trying, but can't figure out how to open either the tar.gz or .run files. I really like Ubuntu, but if I can't install files I might as well just go back to Windows...

HELP!!!
T_T

Is there any special reason why you need this particular editor? There are better ones available right through the repositories PiTiVi, Cinelerra, Auteur and a number of others native to Linux and so much easier to install.

Nah, I just really thought it was pretty looking. I was looking into installing Cinelerra as an alternative, but I just can't seem to figure out how to install THAT ONE either.
:P

Very easy..Open the terminal and do:


sudo add-apt-repository ppa:cinelerra-ppa/ppa
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install cinelerra

But I would also look at PiTiVi which is in the repos.


sudo apt-get install pitivi

Cheers!
