After nearly one year of development, we are proud to release our new stable version of CAELinux, called CAELinux 2009. This release is a complete rebuild of CAELinux for X86 64 bit architecture of the latest Intel / AMD cpus. CAELinux 2009 is now based on one of the most popular linux distribution: Ubuntu and thus contains many enhancements, new softwares and should give you in the end a much better user experience.
CAELinux 2009 is built on the basis of Ubuntu 8.04 LTS 64bit distribution with the latest updates and should support the most recent hardwares / chipset for one of the best compatibility and ease of use in the Linux world. It comes with a kernel in version 2.6.24-24 with support for 64 bit memory addressing and multiple CPUs.
Additionnally, CAELinux 2009 contains the new release of the GPL Salome_Meca 2009 package developed by EDF (32bit) integrated with an optimized 64bit installation of Code-Aster STA 9.4 with OpenMP support. This updated package represents the fusion of a powerfull Code-Aster STA9.4 finite element solver and the Salome v4.1.4 CAD/Pre/Post GUI and allows to run a complete FEA study directly from the SALOME graphical user interface.
CAELinux 2009 also continues to integrate great open source CFD software like Code-Saturne 1.4 and OpenFOAM 1.5 that can be both interfaced with numerous pre processing tools like Salome, GMSH, Netgen, and the brand new CFD oriented mesher enGrid 1.0. With these software, Open-Source FEA & CFD is continuing its progression towards ease of use and parallel computing power to get closer to commercial FEA & CFD codes!

SALOME-MECA-2009.1-GPL
This latest integrated Salome & Code-Aster software package, called Salome-Meca-2009 , has been recently updated by EDF France and is distributed in GPL licence.
As in previous version , CAELinux is taking part in the distribution of this great GPL package.
Salome-Meca-2009 contains the newly integrated software suite combining Salome v.4.1.6 Pre-Post processor & Code-Aster v9.4 FE solver and includes the easy to use Code-Aster module for Salome and its Analysis Wizards.
Installation
Salome-Meca-2009 is distributed in the form of a simple to install "tar.gz" archive containing all the required binaries to run the software on any recent Linux platform. All the required libraries are included in the archive so the only prerequisite should be a running version of "python" .
To install Salome-Meca-2009, you should simply extract the content of the archive to its final destination like for example "/opt" and then run the post-installation script in a terminal: see README for a detailed installation procedure.
Running Salome-Meca
Then to run Salome-Meca-2009, simply launch the "runSalome" script from the installation folder

After several months of development, we are very proud to release our new stable version of CAELinux, called CAELinux 2008.
As usual, this release contains many enhancements, new softwares and should give you a much better user experience.
CAELinux 2008 is based on the PCLinuxOs 2007 distribution with the latest updates and should support the most recent hardwares / chipset for a much better compatibility and ease of use. It now comes with a newer kernel in version 2.6.22.17 with support for up to 4Gb Ram and 4 CPUs.
Additionnally, the release of CAELinux 2008 contains the new release of the GPL Salome_Meca 2008 package developed by EDF (and many others). This updated package represents the fusion of Code-AMD5sum_ster STA9.2 finite element solver and the Salome v3.2.9 CAD/Pre/Post GUI and allows to run a complete FEA study directly from the SALOME graphical user interface. Also, CAELinux 2008 is the first release to include a working and well integrated version of Code-Saturne v1.3.1 (CFD solver developed by EDF) which can be easily interfaced with many meshing and post pocessing programs. With these software, Open-Source FEA is making a jump in ease of use and gets always closer to commercial FEA & CFD codes!

Code-Saturne 1.3.1, Stand-alone binary package
Introduction
Code-Saturne is an industrial-level Finite Volume CFD code developed by EDF (France) and is distributed in GPL licence.To learn more about Code-Saturne, please visit EDF R&D website at :
http://rd.edf.com/107008i/EDF.fr/Research-and-Development/downloads/Code-Saturne.html
This package contains the sources & binaries of Code-Saturne 1.3.1 and its dependencies. The code has been built on CAELinux 2007 and configured to run right after unpacking in /opt/saturne; no additionnal configuration / re-build should be required. The package also contains the sources of Code-Saturne and its dependent libraries as well as the configuration files, so it should not be too complicated to recompile the whole code on your own platform if necessary (look in the INSTALL directory for more info).
Download links
This binary package can be downloaded from here:
http://www.caelinux.com/downloads/stable/saturne-1.3.1/saturne-1.3.1.tar.bz2
For more information on installation and tutorials, please have a look at:
