Complete installation process:

cd ~
mkdir git
cd ~/git
git clone git://github.com/ajaxorg/cloud9.git
git clone https://github.com/creationix/nvm.git ~/.nvm
source ~/.nvm/nvm.sh
#install some version of Node you want
nvm install 0.10
#install and start cloud9
cd cloud9
sudo npm install packager
sudo npm install
sudo ~/git/cloud9/bin/cloud9.sh
#set up your terminal to use the most
#recent nvm node you have installed by default
gedit ~/.bashrc
#add these lines at the bottom
source ~/.nvm/nvm.sh
nvm use 0
#if you want cloud9 to run every time you start up,
#add this line to the bottom of your .profile or .bash_profile
sudo npm install forever -g
forever --uid cloud9 -a start ~/git/cloud9/server.js -w ~/
you only need to run the cloud9.sh once after each install or update from my experience to implement the plugins, but if you get too many errors try running it again. After that you can run right from node or preferably forever.
you can use 0.0.0.0 as the host name to accept all incoming traffic provided it knows the username and password.
node server.js -w ~/git/ -l my.host.name --username riaEvangelist --password is4MyYsOnly
this will inevitably throw E_NOENT errors and crash but that can be fixed by using forever to recover from that
forever start server.js -w ~/git/ -l my.host.name --username riaEvangelist --password is4MyYsOnly
The -l paramater is only needed if you want to expose the cloud9 instance to the world via an IP or a hostname.
Also username and password are optional of course.

to support node js 0.10, You need to add nodejs path to your cloud9 configuration:
get path : $ which node
in /cloud9/configs/default.js
arround L188 for cloud9.run.node and cloud9.run.node-debug
add a nodePath parameter like:
"nodePath" : "your node path"

Remember to add a comma where is need.
