Although the discover.jnlp (Java Web Start) file does indicate that Discover should be able to run on several Linux variants, well Ubuntu Linux isn’t one of these.
The problem lies in the desktop manager, Omniture Discover is, as of now, not compatible with the Gnome desktop manager.

Workarounds:

  • Switch to Kubuntu or some other NON-Gnome based Linux distro
  • Make your Ubuntu installation capable of running with the KDE desktop manager (sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop)

What a truly amazing product Discover is, I’m almost speechless.
Unfortunately it does have a few rough edges here and there, character encoding difficulties being an example.

This is what the Danish characters æ ø and å looks like inside Discover: (perfect)

This is the same data after being exported in Excel format by Omniture Discover: (not pretty)
