That is very useful info.

My immediate goal is to have an install that I can take with me on a keychain. Currently I'm trying to mount the whole thing on a thumb drive. I'm using an app from pendrivelinux.com to install Ubuntu to a thumb drive. The Non-Net Sierrachart software works fine in that environment using wine but I'm not able to follow the directions at the IB website to get the native unix version to install in Ubuntu. IB's instructions leave out a lot of things that are more related to installing some of the software needed before their app can be installed. I'm at the terminal, in the proper directory, with the proper file in said directory and I type[from IB's website]:

java -cp jts.jar:hsqldb.jar:jcommon-1.0.12.jar:jfreechart-1.0.9.jar:jhall.jar:other.jar:rss.jar -Xmx512M -XX:MaxPermSize=128M jclient.LoginFrame .

That is supposed to install TWS... I get this error message: "Error: Could not find or load main class jclient.LoginFrame"

It seems like I need to change a path or something?
