QCAD 2 installation in Ubuntu 11.1 Problem
I have QCAD 2.2.2.0-1-prof-linux.x86. This was working fine in my Ubuntu 10.04. Now I have installed ubuntu 11.1 where it is not running. It 10.04, there is no installation issues, I just clicked qcad and the application is launched. Now it is not so. Can anyone help?

Seems to work just fine here with a standard installation of Ubuntu 11.1.
Please try to launch it from a Terminal, to see if there are any error messages or warnings:
- launch Terminal
- change to directory where you have installed QCAD
- launch QCAD with ./qcad
Also: did you install Ubuntu 32bit or 64bit? In the latter case, you will have to install package 'ia32-libs'.

Re: QCAD 2 installation in Ubuntu 11.1 Problem
Exactly the same problem. My qcad 2.2.2.0-1 prof file still sits in my home folder. Previously (10.04) I had to click there, then in qcad folder, on a blue diamond-shaped icon.vkadal wrote:I have QCAD 2.2.2.0-1-prof-linux.x86. This was working fine in my Ubuntu 10.04.

From Terminal:-
ray@Ray-laptop:~$ cd qcad-2.2.2.0-1-prof.linux.x86
ray@Ray-laptop:~/qcad-2.2.2.0-1-prof.linux.x86$ ls
bin doors fonts misc patterns scripts
doc examples library partlibrary-2.1.2.8-1 qm templates
ray@Ray-laptop:~/qcad-2.2.2.0-1-prof.linux.x86$
...... just in case it helps!
Re: QCAD 2 installation in Ubuntu 11.1 Problem
I don't see the QCAD binary (the actual application) which should be in that directory. It's a file called 'qcad'.ray@Ray-laptop:~/qcad-2.2.2.0-1-prof.linux.x86$ ls
bin doors fonts misc patterns scripts

You might have accidentally deleted it or moved it to another place. Please download and install QCAD again.

Full marks! 'qcad' found in backup, don't know how it was deleted but is now back in its correct slot!andrew wrote:I don't see the QCAD binary (the actual application) which should be in that directory. It's a file called 'qcad'.ray@Ray-laptop:~/qcad-2.2.2.0-1-prof.linux.x86$ ls

Many thanks - now all I have to do is find all my drawings in backup!
