I am from Mac background trying my hand at installing perforce client visual(P4V) on my linux box.For this I download the correct version and untar the files. Then I cd to the directory ~/Desktop/p4v-2012-blah-blah/bin I also say chmod +x p4* After this i try running p4v (by double clicking) but I dont see anything.The file type is shown as a 'text executable' but i dont know why it is not running. On mac i had done the same thing -just clicked on p4v and the client would show up(where I filled the server address and everything )But not sure what is going wrong here.Can someone give me directions? FWIW i did check out link and I do see the desktop (so GNOME is probably installed?).Hence p4v should be able to run.
