==== 64-bit ====

# Download the Mobius DEB file from the Ubuntu 12.10 - 64 bit page at [https://www.mobius.illinois.edu/downloads.php]
# The Ubuntu software center doesn't like the package, but you can install it at the command line by doing: <source lang="bash">
$ sudo dpkg -i mobius_2.4_amd64.deb
</source>
# After installing it like this, apt is going to complain that mobius depends on '''ia32-libs''', but that package has been removed for the 13.10 release. Edit /var/lib/dpkg/status and find the section with information on the mobius package. Remove ", ia32-libs" from the Depends list.
# Mobius should now be in your Dash.

===== Known Issues =====

If you notice that the application menus in Mobius don't appear to be working, this is a Unity/Java issue. Here's how you can resolve it:

# Close Mobius.
# Edit the file '''/usr/share/applications/mobius.desktop'''
# Find the line that reads '''Exec=/usr/bin/mobius'''
# Change that line to read '''Exec=env UBUNTU_MENUPROXY=0 /usr/bin/mobius'''
