Install OpenHuman on Linux
- · Treat the scripted install exactly like macOS—read install.sh once per release.
- · Distro-native packages occasionally appear upstream; README + Releases remain the source of truth.
- · Audio, Wayland/X11 quirks, or missing system libraries vary by distro—capture errors verbatim when asking for community help.
1 · Primary flow
If upstream ships a downloadable Linux bundle on https://tinyhumans.ai/openhuman, prefer that when you want the least brittle path. Otherwise the README-maintained shell command is:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tinyhumansai/openhuman/main/scripts/install.sh | bash2 · Resources
Documentation recommends 4 GB+ RAM as a floor and 16 GB+ when you plan to ingest very large Gmail mailboxes or codebases—or run companion Ollama workloads on the same machine.
3 · Next steps
Finish install, then proceed to permissions and onboarding in First launch.
