I am new to Linux and Ubuntu and I have some issues when I try run mu game on a Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS with gnome.
From GM1.4 I can compile the game. (OK)
After the compile game maker put it on my Ubuntu into a folder and install it. (OK)
But when I try run it nothing happens.

Any ubuntu guru/master/jedi here?

Or must I run ubuntu desktop?

Did you install the required packages in Ubuntu? I managed to get my current game running on 16.04 LTS by running this shell script:

Code: 
#!/bin/sh
# Update sources
sudo apt-get update
# Install all required packages
sudo apt-get install libopenal1 -y
sudo apt-get install libopenal1:i386 -y
sudo apt-get install libstdc++6:i386 -y
sudo apt-get install libxxf86vm1 -y
sudo apt-get install libssl1.0.0:i386 -y
sudo apt-get install libglu1:i386 -y
sudo apt-get install libxrandr2:i386 -y
If any dependencies are missing the game won't run (nothing happens).

Also tested on ubuntu desktop on 16.04.2 x64
Everything works but when I try start. It won't start.

I notice that some of the needed installs are unable to be located:
sudo apt-get install libopenal1:i386
sudo apt-get install lib32bz2-1.0 and sudo apt-get install libbz2-1.0:i386
sudo apt-get install libstdc++6:i386
sudo apt-get install libssl1.0.0:i386
sudo apt-get install libglu1:i386
sudo apt-get install libxrandr2:i386

Edit Ahh. Needed to run:
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo apt-get update
Before the above packets could be found and installed.
But I still can't run the games.

Hmm, maybe the ldd command can help you (use: ldd runner). It should list all dependencies for an executable, if there are missing ones you should see a not found message for that dependency.

## Launch 'yourapp' and capture its standard error output
GameMaker/Applications/Project1/Project1/runner 2>~/myapp.log

I guess

has something to do with it.

Ok. Found the issue. Digital ocean only got the very basic of GPU and it's not enough to make a game maker project get going.
Will try use paperspace instead. They got Ubuntu with GPU.
