Ubuntu – errors installing NoMachine

[merour2021]

Hello,

I am having difficulty installing NoMachine on an Ubuntu (20.04.2.0) machine. Note that I haven’t used Linux in decades so I may be missing something simple. 🙂

This is the install sequence.

(venv) merour01@MEROUR:~/Downloads$ sudo apt install ./nomachine_7.6.2_1_i386.deb
[sudo] password for merour01:

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Install output does not say clear information what happened with some files. As I noticed you are installing 32bit package, please can you verify that you are using 32bit OS?

You can check that by executing uname -m

Thank you, fisherman. I did, indeed, install the wrong version on a 64 bit machine.

I’ll give it another try.

Thank you for taking the time…

Best regards,
