I am new to Linux. I'm trying to install a copy of INAV Configurator for Linux in Ubuntu MATE, but I have been unable to find instructions for how to install it. The link to the software that I downloaded to my Downloads folder is here.

1. Visit the release page.

2. Download Configurator for Linux platform (currently INAV-Configurator_linux64_2.5.0.tar.gz as shown in the screenshot in step 3).

3. Extract tar.gz archive which is marked by the mouse cursor in the below screenshot with Archive Manager.

   As you can see in the screenshot INAV-Configurator_linux64_2.5.0.tar.gz is right there in the Downloads folder where you commented that you downloaded it.

4. Make the inav-configurator file executable with chmod +x inav-configurator. If you skip this important step and don't give inav-configurator execution permissions it will return a permissions error when you try to execute it in step 5.

5. Run INAV Configurator app from the unpacked folder. From a terminal change directories with cd (Ubuntu documentation Using The Terminal) to the directory named INAV Configurator which contains a file named inav-configurator. If you drag the inav-configurator file from the file manager into the terminal it will print its path and you can cd to that path. Run inav-configurator with this command:

   ./inav-configurator

The INAV Configurator GUI looks like this when you're finished.

Small update regarding newer version (5.0+): you need also grant exec permissions for chrome_crashpad_handler file

chmod +x chrome_crashpad_handler

Actual installation manual you can always found here:
