Hi, i'm pretty new to Linux and having a little problem with installing FM 2012. I've tried installing via Steam and it isn't possible (If anyone knows how it is please tell me!) So i've done a little reading and trying to install using Playonlinux but having a few problems. First of all I followed this guide http://asivarajan.blogspot.com/2011/11/football-manager-2012-on-ubuntu-1110.html . Once POL asks me where I want to load my install from (CD) I hit next and it asks me if I want to make another shortcut, I hit I don't want to make another short cut and this is my full terminal start to finish. I can't understand what's going wrong because I'm running sudo and the program just closes! Can anyone help? :( Code: james at james-desktop:~$ sudo playonlinux [sudo] password for james: rm: cannot remove `*': No such file or directory [install_plugins] Message: Checking plugin: Offline PlayOnLinux...

If the program will not install from Steam, please capture a log file and post it to a site like pastebin.com and post only the URL in this topic. http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#run_from_terminal and http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#get_log provide steps on how to do this.
