I am no Linux guy but I guess a reasonable question would be:

What have you tried so far? What kind of errors have you seen while doing so? Please be as precise and informative as possible.

heres the errors i get; sudo apt-get install pcsx2 Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package pcsx2 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

E: Package 'pcsx2' has no installation candidate




ubuntu software center The file “/home/jad/Downloads/pcsx2-1.2.2-r5896-lnx.tar.xz” could not be opened.




those are the 2 errors i get when trying to install on my samsung np-nc10 3 gb ram 250 gb hd intel graphics running ubuntu 15.04 vivid vervet

I just installed this like 5 minutes ago to install the latest git build. I did the sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gregory-hainaut/pcsx2.official.ppa in the terminal, then did the install through synaptic (because the software center is kind of lame  Tongue ). Open synaptic, refresh packages, hit the search button and type PCSX2 in the pop up window, and it should show up.
