rename the 8bit CLI folder to 8bitCLI

then proceed with the GUI compilation-installation. Although after a few days the GUI crashes on linux as well (segmentation core dump)

In addition the config folder is hidden under the name .8bit on your home folder. Both the CLI and the GUI take their settings and blockchain data from .8bit folder (the same of appdata/roaming/8bit if you were on windows).

It return an error when I try to run 8bitd: "8bitd: error while loading shared libraries: libsecp256k1.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"

did you successfully run this command? its seems no

Code:

cd ~&&git clone http://www.github.com/bitcoin/secp256k1&&cd secp256k1&&git checkout a1d5ae1&&./autogen.sh&&./configure&&make&&sudo make install&&cd ..

From the instructions are missing the installation of git. do a sudo apt-get install git after the first set of commands (dependencies).

So 1. sudo apt-get install -y libminiupnpc-dev autoconf automake build-essential libssl-dev libdb++-dev libboost-all-dev libqrencode-dev

2. sudo apt-get install git

3. cd ~&&git clone http://www.github.com/bitcoin/secp256k1&&cd secp256k1&&git checkout a1d5ae1&&./autogen.sh&&./configure&&make&&sudo make install&&cd ..

4. etc etc.
