So everyone knows, the headless version of chimera does not provide a visible graphics window. It is designed to run chimera and Python scripts and export data or save images, and is usually installed for use by web servers. So if you are new to chimera, it is the wrong version to use. So I'd recommend downloading and installing the chimera 1.5.3 release candidate (the actual release should be out within a day, so if you can wait a day, do so). The Linux installer needs to be make executable (chmod +x installer.bin) and run in a Terminal window. When the installer pauses for input, you will see that it has filled out the answer for you with a default value. If you don't like that value, use your normal terminal line editing to change it (ie., use DEL to delete a character, ^U to delete the line, etc.).
