Hi Sudhanshu:<div><br></div><div>Well I'm starting right now with VTK also in Ubuntu, but I prefer to use the LTS versions so I'm running it in the Ubuntu 10.04.2.</div><div><br></div><div>If you have not too much experience inside the Linux world I suggest you to install from System>Administration>Synaptics. Inside you can find a lot of packages related with VTK. </div>
<div><br></div><div>For your purposes you should install the CMake package that is necessary for run and compile C++ files and also if further you wanna use Paraview i.e. You also will need to install</div><div>vtkdata</div>
<div>vtk-examples*</div><div>libvtk5.2</div><div>vtk-doc*</div><div>libvtk5dev</div><div>cmake</div><div><br></div><div>The examples and the documentation are optional but the other packages not. Check the list of packages available and read the description, perhaps you'll find useful another packages too.</div>
<div><br></div><div>About how to compile your c++ files I'm not sure, I think you should check the gcc documentation for that.</div><div><br></div><div>Good luck.</div>
