In the install instructions, they say "run" the Blender executable for v 2.8. While I have the executable in the extracted folder, I don't know which command will "run" it. I tried run blender within the folder without success. Would be great if someone can help me out.

Edit 2:

$ ./blender

  • @pomsky the file " blender" is already executable. – user227495 Jul 31 '19 at 02:23
  • I don't know how to run it. Install instructions say " Linux: Unpack the archive, then run the Blender executable. " – user227495 Jul 31 '19 at 02:26

    Did you see the accepted answer to the duplicate I suggested? "*You can then execute it like this:* `./filename.sh`". So what happens if you then run `./blender` in the directory? – pomsky Jul 31 '19 at 02:28
  • I saw the link proposed answer. Please see the edit in the original question. I think I have to run the executable, not a .sh file. At least that is what the install instructions say. – user227495 Jul 31 '19 at 02:29
  • Please see the output of ./blender as Edit 2 in the original question. I got a blank window. – user227495 Jul 31 '19 at 02:32
  • The screenshot doesn't tell anything, it's not clear whether it's *allowed to execute*. You need to check the *Permissions* tab. Also `.sh` means nothing, in general suffixes mean nothing in GNU/Linux world. Only thing matters is whether it's an executable file or not. – pomsky Jul 31 '19 at 02:33

    Ok. Looks like when we wait enough `./blender` command works. Thank you. – user227495 Jul 31 '19 at 02:36
