Linux Guide

Installation

Go to 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:

apt install bsmanager.deb

CentOS, Fedora

Install the .rpm build and run the following command:

rpm -i bsmanager.rpm

Arch, Manjaro

Install the .pacman build and run the following command:

pacman -U bsmanager.pacman

Proton Setup

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"

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

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

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

# or

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