Yes. It fails instantly with a very long list if one doesn’t do that.

Make sure the folder with all the plugins is moved to the vmd folder from which you do the installation.

Hi Josh,
I posted the query because I was trying to build from source, partly because the site only listed RHEL, and RHEL and Ubuntu often have separate dependencies.
I have since followed Alex’s suggestion and downloaded
VMD 1.9.3 for Linux (RHEL 6.x) 64-bit x86_64 w/ SSE, CUD
…and then ran “make install” on that, which installed without a hitch. Since Ubuntu has many users, it might be good to include that in addition to RHEL at the download site.

Hi Bradley,
Are you trying to build from source, or just install a precompiled executable? The precompiled executable *is* just a "make install" away, but that definitely isn't true for compiling from source. I've packaged VMD for Ubuntu, so it is possible to compile from source, but I do recall it being a bit of trial and error the first time I did it.

Looking at the distribution, I don’t see a Makefile option for Ubuntu, only Red Hat and other distributors. Is there such an option?
When I try ‘make’, I get a steady stream of errors regarding missing packages. The latest error concerns missing XInput.h. Since running make stops at each such failure point, I don’t know how many more there will be.
Has anyone found a way to build this on Ubuntu? There are at least three YouTube videos that simply state that you type “sudo make install” and nothing else. Those don’t work for me.
