Hi,
i'm new linux user and i need to run OpenFOAM-1.5. I was only possible to make OpenFOAM directory in Home (/HOME/OpenFOAM/) with "su" and "mkdir" commands. But i don't know how to install Qt (wich is required for OpenFOAM operation) and when i uncompressed OpenFOAM downloaded files with "tar -xzf" command gives me an error.
freddy@Sony-Ubuntu:~$ tar xzf /home/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.5.General.gtgz
gzip: stdin: not in gzip format
tar: Child returned status 1
tar: Salida con error demorada desde errores anteriores
freddy@Sony-Ubuntu:~$ DD
according with files properties "/home/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-1.5.General.gtgz"
i don't know what i'm doing wrong, please help...
My OS: Ubuntu 8.10 64bit
