Welcome to LQ. Did you check ' .bashrc ' to see, if the new path's have been set ? About ./validate : 1) cd ns-allinone-2.33/ns-2.33 2) ./validate Getting the libraries into the system LIBRARY_PATH in an easy way : sudo apt-get install tcl8.4 tk8.4 and : cd ns-allinone-2.33/otcl-1.13 sudo make install cd ../tclcl-1.19 sudo make install exit ..... ns + nam in the system PATH : cd ns-allinone-2.33/ns-2.33 sudo make install cd ../nam-1.13 sudo make install ... which will copy the two files ns, nam only, to /usr/local/bin/ Good luck ! .....

Well, build-essential is a rather short list of packages, which you probably already have ... + the Registered: Jan 2008 dependencies .. Location: Copenhagen, DK which are : Distribution: pclos2010.12, Slack13.1 Deb Squeeze +40+ sudo apt-get install dpkg-dev g++ libc6-dev make

'dpkg-dev' is not important, just mentioned as part of what you get with 'build-essential'. But 'libx11-dev' is a must. ( And so are libxmu-dev libxmu-headers libxt-dev libtool ). May be have a look in (Menu) System > Administration > Software Sources ... and tick the entries in 'Ubuntu Software', 'Updates', 'Third-Party Software' ( source code isn't needed.)
