Hi all,

I just made a fresh install of Pop!\_os which is based on ubuntu 18.04.  
Installed wine 3.0 64bit version, installed winetricks and did all the necesarry stuff to get that running.  
Then I downloaded the native launcher from Snorlax, extracted it, chmod it and double clicked evelauncher.sh, nothing happens.  
When I open evelauncher.sh in terminal, I see the cursor flickering, but nothing happens, no text, nothing, just a blinking cursor.

Any clues anybody?
