# Linux Guide

## Installation

Go to [Releases](https://github.com/Zagrios/bs-manager/releases) page and go to the latest release. Download the necessary build installer for your distro (see below).

### Ubuntu, Debian

Install the `.deb` build and run the following command:
```bash
apt install bsmanager.deb
```

### CentOS, Fedora

Install the `.rpm` build and run the following command:
```bash
rpm -i bsmanager.rpm
```

### Arch, Manjaro

Install the `.pacman` build and run the following command:
```bash
pacman -U bsmanager.pacman
```

## Proton Setup

[Proton](https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton) is needed to run the Beat Saber executable under Linux. You need to download this from either from Steam or building it from their GitHub repo.

Once Proton is installed, when you open your BSManager application for the first time, it will ask you to link the _Proton Folder_. The _Proton Folder_ also verifies if the `proton` and `files/bin/wine64` binaries exists. Once set, you should be able to launch the Beat Saber (using `proton`) and install mods (using `files/bin/wine64`). You can still change the _Proton Folder_ in the **settings page** if any new version of Steam Proton is downloaded.

# Troubleshooting

## Permission denied on "bs-version.json"

<pre>
Unhandled Exception UnhandledRejection Error: EACCES: permission denied, open '/opt/BSManager/resources/assets/jsons/bs-versions.json'
</pre>

To fix this issue, the current user must have write permissions to the "bs-versions.json". To correct the permissions do command below:

```bash
chmod +002 /opt/BSManager/resources/assets/jsons/bs-versions.json

# or

chown $(whoami) /opt/BSManager/resources/assets/jsons/bs-versions.json
```
