monero-gui-linux-x64-v0.18.4.5.tar.bz2

 To install the Monero GUI wallet from the file shown in your image, follow these steps to extract and run it on your Ubuntu VM.

1. Extract the Wallet Files

The file you have (monero-gui-linux-x64-v0.18.4.5.tar.bz2) is a compressed archive.

  • Using the Terminal (Recommended):

    Open your terminal and navigate to your Downloads folder:

    Bash
    cd ~/Downloads
    tar -xvjf monero-gui-linux-x64-v0.18.4.5.tar.bz2
    
  • Using the File Manager:

    Right-click the file in your "Downloads" folder and select Extract Here.


2. Launch the GUI

Once extracted, a new folder will be created (likely named monero-gui-v0.18.4.5 or similar).

  1. Enter the new folder:

    Bash
    cd monero-x86_64-linux-gnu-v0.18.4.5
    
  2. Run the wallet application:

    Bash
    ./monero-wallet-gui
    

    Note: If it doesn't open, try running: QMLSCENE_DEVICE=softwarecontext ./monero-wallet-gui.


3. Create Your Wallet

When the application opens, follow the setup wizard:

  • Select Language: Choose your preferred language.

  • Wallet Mode:

    • Simple Mode: Best for beginners; it connects to a remote node so you don't have to download the entire 200GB+ blockchain.

    • Advanced Mode: Gives you full control but requires more disk space and time to sync a local node.

  • Create New Wallet: Select this option and follow the prompts.

  • SAVE YOUR SEED: You will be shown a 25-word mnemonic seed. Write this down on paper and keep it safe. This is the only way to recover your funds if your VM is deleted.

  • Set a Password: This encrypts the wallet file on your VM.


4. Get Your Mining Address

Once the wallet is set up and the bottom status bar says "Synchronized" (or "Remote node connected" in Simple Mode):

  1. Click the Receive tab on the left sidebar.

  2. Your primary address (starting with a 4) will be displayed.

  3. Copy this address—this is what you will paste into your XMRig config.json file we discussed earlier.

Would you like me to show you how to create a desktop shortcut so you don't have to use the terminal to open the wallet next time?
