I have tried this already and got this message The program 'paraview' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing: sudo apt-get install paraview
and if you do this you get the old version Mohammed --- On Sat, 4/16/11, Wayne Wu <[email protected]> wrote: From: Wayne Wu <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [Paraview] Installing Paraview on Ubuntu 10.10 To: "Aston Martin" <[email protected]> Cc: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> Date: Saturday, April 16, 2011, 1:44 PM Hi Aston, OK. Use command to extract the package into where you want to put ParaView in, for example /opt/ as follows tar xzvf ParaView-3.10.1-Linux-x86_64.tar.gz -C /opt/ Then you can execute /opt/ParaView-3.10.0-Linux-x86_64/bin/paraview to launch ParaView. For convenience, you can also put a symbolic link of this paraview to wherever you would like to. Good luck :) Best regards, Wayne On 16 April 2011 20:12, Aston Martin <[email protected]> wrote: thanks Wayne this is exactly what I did but it installed an older version (3.8.2) I'm asking how to install it from the downloaded binary without using apt-get thanks, Aston --- On Sat, 4/16/11, Wayne Wu <[email protected]> wrote: From: Wayne Wu <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [Paraview] Installing Paraview on Ubuntu 10.10 To: "Aston Martin" <[email protected]> Cc: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> Date: Saturday, April 16, 2011, 11:47 AM Hello Aston, Download the latest package and unpack to anywhere you want, then it is okay to use.
