TO ALL WHO CAN'T INSTALL SPOTIFY ON LINUX

TO ALL WHO CAN'T INSTALL SPOTIFY ON LINUX

Hi Everyone,

 

as you may have noticed the repository for spotify probably isn't working for you.

 

This is because, apparently, there are NO packages in the X86 section of the repos.

There DOES seem to be some in AMD64. Since my computer won't run AMD64, can someone with a compatible arch / CPU test this out?

Thanks!

Installed Spotify's client for Windows using Wine on Xubuntu 14,10.

Works good

>>requires extra fonts or shows Korean letters instead of Prvs|Play|Next buttons.

>>can control Spotify via multimedia keys on keyboard.

When I try to install it in wine I get a message that says " Please install using a normal account instead of an administrator account" I've searched online on how to change wine profile to a normal user account but can't find anything. Any ideas?

My tip is to install Spotify linux client instead of running the Windows client in Wine.
