+1 also you will find it ready to download in software-packages without using command line ..just type Bitcoin in a search box then you will see it .

Thanks will do, hopefully it will run better on my Ubuntu machine, I,m just transferring all the Bitcoin data from my Mac to the Ubuntu bitcoin directory so I don't have to re download it again, all seems to be working great. Thanks Grin

why aren't you using the pre-built linux binaries?

I wasn't aware of this, would you be able to provide a link?
