Installation under linux

[archimage]

Hello,

I've downloaded octane demo, and i've also installed the cuda 3.0 and the sdk toolkit, but i don't know how to install the octane software itself ? is there any trick to launch it ? i'm a new linux user and I need some help !

thanx !

just unpack the archive, and launch the included binary. 'octane'

in the graphical interface nothing happens, and in the shell when I type octane it says :

No command 'octane' found, did you mean:
Command 'octave' from package 'octave3.2' (universe)
Command 'octave' from package 'octave3.0' (universe)

Hi,

You need to go to the directory with the 'cd' command, where you unpacked octane, then launch it with './octane'.
