I played safe and installed gromacs 3.3.2 using the synaptic package manager, and on searching it shows up green. However, I may be stupid, but after much searching I failed to run it. Please help an idiot? :(

there is a complete list of basic commands for GROMACS, in a terminal you have to put it without sudo. Is very hard learn and use GROMACS, so good luck!, see you

I generally have the same problem. In the synaptic package manager it says gromacs is installed (green) but I can't locate the configure command in order to configure gromacs. I am following the installation instructions given on the gromacs website, so this is before I attempt to run gromacs.

I am using a Dell Precision T3400, Intel Core Duo 2, with ubuntu 7.10 64 bit.

Any suggestions?
