For some reason Ubuntu thinks it's a 'par' file :-)

Checking in terminal shows that it's not executable. Changing it tp +x and running it gives:
bash: ./XBian-installer: Permission denied
Running as root gives
sudo: unable to execute ./XBian-installer: Permission denied

@IriDium that's very strange. And because others where having problems, i've installed a clean ubuntu 14.04 x64 on vmware to test if it could be because i had something different on my system like dependencies and because i don't think i'm compiling it statically for linux.

And for a clean ubuntu everything worked fine!
-I've downloaded from last link i've posted.
-It was already execulable, so no need to use chmod.
-runned: sudo ./XBian-installer
and everything worked fine, downloads, usb write, and the warning if you don't run it as sudo.

Try download it again (http://www27.zippyshare.com/v/i2VPGNBN/file.html )
and run on therminal:
sudo ./XBian-installer

or

sudo su
./XBian-installer

That is very strange. Use "chmod +x XBian-installer" if it's not detecting the file as executable. Tell me if you still got that problem.
