  2. You have to add the pokerTH teams PPA.

    You can get the PPA for ubuntu 12.10 from the games Launchpad site. https://launchpad.net/~pkg-games/+archive/ppa

    To add a PPA, open your terminal (CTRL+T or search the dash)

    type in

    sudo apt-add-repository ppa:pkg-games/ppa

    it will ask for your root password (admin) and you will not see anything as you type it in, but that's alright. After writing the password hit RETURN / ENTER

    Then you will have to update all you software sources, by typing:

    sudo apt-get update

    and finally you can install the game

    sudo apt-get install pokerth
