    Yep. I installed it using the unsupported version for non-Debian distros (which includes Fedora 23) two weeks ago.

    I would advise you skip 5.2 altogether...not the most stable release. It'll install, but you have to jump through some hoops to get it to work. I found Plasma 5 workspaces to be the only DE Unity 5.2 cooperated with, and it was still not a very pleasant experience. Just stick with 5.1.0f3 for now. I can't speak for others, but I personally haven't had any real problems using Fedora 23 and 5.1.0f3.

    Use wget to download the link below and you should be good to install. I would avoid trying to download it with Firefox or Chrome as the download will probably fail (it did for me). Others here have had the same problem and used wget to surmount the issue.

    Hi guys, I installed Unity 5.1.0f3 using your link on Fedora 23. When I try to start using ./Unity, Unity starts but I cannot log in. I get the following:

    "Service not available, please try again later." What does that mean? I already tried without and internet connection, it did not work.

    Please help me!

    Try offline activation

    Edit: You may have to disconnect from the internet to do that

    Thank you for your quick reply!
    As I said, I already tried the offline activation, the "No network connection :(" message was not even showing up.

    Anyway, I went ahead and upgraded to 5.3.0f4 and it is working perfectly now: http://download.unity3d.com/download_unity/linux/unity-editor-installer-5.3.0f4+20151218.sh from this post: http://forum.unity3d.com/threads/unity-on-linux-release-notes-and-known-issues.350256/

    Cheers!
