Re: debian

So where did you download the .deb from and what version (number) is it?

Have you looked at "FrostWire" on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FrostWire . It makes the point that the program is Java based, so you will need Java installed. An easy way to achieve this is to connect to the internet, open a Terminal and issue the command:

sudo apt-get install kubuntu-restricted-extras

Re: debian

ya i have that done but it still says open with [browse] or save file

Re: debian

open a terminal and type

gdebi-gtk

then click file and open then point it to your .deb
