Sorry to be so late in replying to your post Peter, I'm still having trouble. Clearly the directory exits, se my ls etc:- ray@ray-Aspire-5735:~$ ls 100_0516.JPG 1255418274(1).pdf 1255418274_en(1).pdf 1256810773.pdf 1257079360(1).zip 3_knut_12.pdf alsa-info.sh app April 1994 Assembling a Dynamic Comp...

Just noticed when I went back to Terminal that some extra text appeared below the previous commands:- ray@ray-Aspire-5735:~$ cd ~/QCAD/qcad-3.0.0-prof-linux-x86 ray@ray-Aspire-5735:~/QCAD/qcad-3.0.0-prof-linux-x86$ ./qcad Debug: TIMER: 353 ms - "loading plugins" Debug: TIMER: 2491 ms - "initializing...

Did as you suggested, cleared the Firefox cache and loaded the commands in your post. Lots of output (too much to quote here I think) but end result APPEARS to be that QCAD 3.0 is installed. Now all I have to do is get it to start! Do I always need to start from Terminal - if so what command please?...

Tar.bz downloaded and saved. Terminal output:- ray@ray-Aspire-5735:~$ cd QCAD ray@ray-Aspire-5735:~/QCAD$ rm -rf qcad-3.0.0-prof-linux-x86 ray@ray-Aspire-5735:~/QCAD$ tar xfvz qcad-3.0.0-prof-linux-x86.tar.gz gzip: stdin: unexpected end of file tar: Child returned status 1 tar: Error is not recovera...

So sorry to be dumb but what steps do I follow to " First, download the package qcad-3.0.0-prof-linux-x86.tar.gz into ~/QCAD" ?

I don't think the file you mentioned does exist, terminal output was:- ray@ray-Aspire-5735:~$ cd QCAD ray@ray-Aspire-5735:~/QCAD$ cd 3.0.0-prof-linux-x86 bash: cd: 3.0.0-prof-linux-x86: No such file or directory ray@ray-Aspire-5735:~/QCAD$ ls bin Front Door Panels.dxf partlibrary-2.1.2.8-1 scripts d...

Thanks Andrew, I'll give it a go!
