That.
Linus Torvalds is the creator of the Linux kernel, with the help of Richard Stallman he created GNU/Linux, which is the base of today's distribution like Ubuntu, but Torvalds was never involved into Ubuntu's development :P , I hope I helped.

Rayman 2 like Jazz Jackrabbit 3D are working very well in Windows 8.1.What about 3D Ripper DX I have problems with opening this program even compatibility mode didn't help?

RayMATE wrote:Hi guys, it would be helpful if you know what I could do with my Rayman 2: The Great Escape, it installs, then I trying to run it nothing happends. I got Rayman 10th Anniversary Collection (Rayman M, Rayman 2, Rayman 3 & Rayman 3 Extra stuff) for pc! (ofc) ;).

And I got an (x64, Windows 10 system)

It might not be the help thread, but then send me to the right place and I will post it there. Im new so, thanx if you can say it.
After almost a half year have been passed, this posted problem made me attracted to try.
My PC runs Windows 10 Pro 64bit. And I have "Rayman 2" CD, not of the 10th anniversary one but a single article one.
As of 12 June 2016, the original game CD's installer now worked to install the game without any problem nor special compatibility setting for it.
OK, I ran GXsetup.exe (Important ; This is needed BEFORE you run the game. ), then double-clicked "Rayman2.exe" !!

Oh no ! I got this;

This is the "compatibility" issue of Rayman2.exe.
So I set Rayman2.exe compatibility to "Windows98/ME", and again double-clicked "Rayman2.exe" , the game started !!

No problem now in Windows 10 Pro 64bit to install and play Rayman 2.

Funny how when I use Wine this miracle doesn't happen for me. Then again, different OS, different window-manager, etc.
