There is a program for ubuntu linux called Wine. Wine is a windows
emulator which gives linux windows capabilities. To install wine, open
the terminal, then type:
sudo apt-get install wine
once that is done, locate the lifecam install file, right click on it,
hit "Open with Wine".
If there is any error, post it here.
