Hi all,

I am unsure which binary I need to use for the installation of g95 on Ubuntu 64-bit. None of the binaries on www.g95.org specify that they are for Ubuntu and as a newbie to Linux it is a mystery to me which one I need. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

It's very rare for a linux app to be specifically OS dependent. Just pick this http://ftp.g95.org/v0.91/g95-x86-linux.tgz
