Do what i said to do before:
1. cd /user/russ/pathToJar
2. [you won't need to chmod as you already did]
3. java -Xmx1024M -jar gbloader.jar
[the value 1024 can be changed if it still doesn't work... change it to:
java -Xmx2048M -jar gbloader.jar
and if that doesn't work then it is a completely different problem 2GB of memory is quite enough for the space :)]
Also to install skype on linux:
apt-get install skype
or
yum install skype
Should work..
[I forget if your version uses yum or apt-get]
It still says no such file or directory when I try to use that cd before anything, just as it did before. I did it again because it gave me that error before.
Exactly what is in the terminal after doing it:
russ@russ-System-Product-Name:~$ cd /russ/Downloads/eldevin_linux
bash: cd: /russ/Downloads/eldevin_linux: No such file or directory
russ@russ-System-Product-Name:~$ java -Xmx1024M -jar gbloader.jar
Error: Unable to access jarfile gbloader.jar
