[Paraview] Installing Paraview on Ubuntu 10.10

[Wayne Wu]

Hi Aston,

OK. Use command to extract the package into where you want to put ParaView
in, for example /opt/ as follows

tar xzvf ParaView-3.10.1-Linux-x86_64.tar.gz -C /opt/

Then you can execute /opt/ParaView-3.10.0-Linux-x86_64/bin/paraview to
launch ParaView. For convenience, you can also put a symbolic link of this
paraview to wherever you would like to.

Good luck :)

Best regards,
Wayne
