Running Amber on Ubuntu Linux

All of Amber will compile and run on Ubuntu Linux platforms. A full operating system (OS) installation is recommended. However, for disk space misers here are the lists of Ubuntu packages beyond minimal OS installations that can be used by Amber 11 and AmberTools 1.3:

• 9.10 Ubuntu
  sudo apt-get install bison csh flex gfortran g++ xorg-dev
  
• 8.10 Ubuntu
  sudo apt-get install build-essential byacc
  The gcc version used was 4.3.2 including gfortran. In this case xleap was not installed.

Ubuntu command to get OS version: cat /etc/lsb-release
GNU command to get compiler version: g++ -v
