hi. i was just wondering is there a houdini apprentice version for 32 bit linux? i dont see it. i tried the versions on the page and none of them worked or installed. im a new linux user though, so thats maybe why.

What errors are you getting? Doesn't work isn't very descriptive…You can get this version of houdini (h9 - 32bits for ubuntu 7) http//www.sidefx.com/index.php?option=com_download&Itemid=208&page=license&version=9.0&build=696&platform=linux_i686_gcc4.1&format=tar.gz

i had Houdini 9.0 installed on my ubuntu.Just read this linkhttp://www.cgarena.com/freestuff/tutorials/misc/ubuntu/index.html [cgarena.com]
the trick is this one is using .tar the new ubuntu 7.04 version H9 is using 7z.
You have to download 7z from the synaptic package manager.Then ubuntu`s native package opener opens it. And you have to change the codes given there from H8 to H9. Maybe you like to use H8 builds then…i don`t know…
but it is not difficult, believe me…
