Dear all,<br>
I have installed Flash4.3 on ubuntu machine (12.04 LTS).<br>
I can run the Sedov explosion problem as shown in FLASH User’s Guide, however, a free IDL (interactive data language which is compatible with IDL 7.1) gives a segmentation default and can not visualize the data.<br>
Could you please tell me how to install VisIt! Is it better to install FLASH4.3 on later ubuntu versions, especially, I will use FLASH4.3 to simulate the HEDP ?<br>
<br>
Thanks a lot. Best regards,<br>
Mohammed<br>
<br>
<br>
p.s. The installed cmake version on my machine is 2.8.7 and HYPRE needs later versions of cmake!<br>

get your version (11.04) from <a href="https://wci.llnl.gov/simulation/computer-codes/visit/executables" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://wci.llnl.gov/simulatio<wbr>n/computer-codes/visit/executa<wbr>bles</a><br>
and then<br>
sudo ./visit-install2_10_3 linux-x86_64-ubuntu11 /usr/local/visit<span><font color="#888888"><br>
