Am i missing something, or are you posting a question about a piece of Linux software called "Mercury" on a Team17 gaming forum?

I'd have considered posting it on a Linux and/or Mercury forum myself...

As for the question itself, the error appears to be telling you that the program can't find the com.dMSN.Main Java class. This could be either because it isn't there (missing file, or file in the wrong place) or because the Java CLASSPATH environment variable isn't set up correctly.

Use the Linux "set" command to mess with your environment variables, and make sure that CLASSPATH has either the directory your Mercury program is trying to run itself from in it, or that it contains a period, meaning current directory, and that you are in this directory when you run the program.

You might also want to check file permission of all files involved.
