Did you already install Grapejuice on your Chromebook before?
If so, I recommend just nuking your Linux install and starting from scratch.
Please follow the steps below exactly.
- Open the Linux Terminal app.
- If you cannot find the app, please ensure Linux subsystem is installed on your Chromebook. You can install it through Settings > Menu > Linux (Beta) > Install
- Download Wine. Wine is a compatibility layer (NOT emulator) for Windows software on Linux devices. Run the following commands:
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
wget -nc https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/winehq.key
sudo apt-key add winehq.key
sudo echo "deb https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/debian/ stretch main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/wine.list
sudo apt update
sudo apt install --install-recommends winehq-stable
Download Python. Python is needed to run Grapejuice.
wget https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.7.6/Python-3.7.6.tgz
tar xvf Python-3.7.6.tgz
cd Python-3.7.6
./configure && make && sudo make install
Install Grapejuice:
sudo apt install python3-pip virtualenv libcairo2-dev libgirepository1.0-dev libgtk-3-0 libgtk-3-bin libdbus-1-dev
cd ..
wget https://gitlab.com/brinkervii/grapejuice/-/archive/master/grapejuice-master.zip
unzip grapejuice-master.zip
cd grapejuice-master
python3.7 ./install.py
Open Grapejuice through the app launcher, and go to Maintenance > Install Roblox. Then, you will be able to open Roblox Studio.
