Installing Citrix on Linux (Ubuntu)

I've recently installed Citrix v10.0 on my laptop running Ubuntu Feisty 7.4. I've heard this was a very daunting task, I only experienced one issue and this was resolved very quickly after a google search. I'm going to spare the screenshots for security purposes, I think it'd be pretty taboo to post pictures of me logging into a secure site, eh?

1.) Download Citrix v10.0
2.) $sudo apt-get install libxaw6 libmotif3
3.)$sudo tar xvfz en.linuxx86.tar.gz
4.)$sudo ./setupwfc

Generally we would be finished by now; but I ran into some issues with the Thawte certificate, so I did this; I found out that Stanford University offers a root cert available for DL, (THANKS STANFORD!) do this if you get this error.

1.) cd /usr/lib/ICAClient/keystore/cacerts
2.) sudo wget www2.slac.stanford.edu/computing/windows/services/citrix/
