Installation - Part 1

Step 1: Download all the files

Download all the necessary files in the same compile directory:
1) go to the GSS download page and get the gss and the ngspice archives.
The ones I used are named: gss-tcad-0.46-p11.tar.gz and cogenda-ngspice-gss-0.46-p11.tar.gz

2) Download the PETSC library: petsc-2.3.3. I used version 8 for better compatibility. Download the ls.c patch from the gss website.

3) Download cgnslib-2.5.1

4) Install the following software with synaptic. Open a terminal and paste

sudo apt-get bison libtiff4 libtiff4-dev flex-old gcc gfortran libblas3gf liblapack3gf tk tk-dev tcl-dev vtk-tcl libadolc0 make makedev

After you enter the password the package should install automatically.
If I forgot a package please tell me.
