Geoffrey is attempting to run our regional climate model on a Linux based PC as part of his studies but is having trouble getting Linux installed and the model up and running. Our regional model is called PRECIS. You can see more information at our website: http://precis.metoffice.com The model is designed to run on a Linux based PC only as part of its commitment to being low infrastructure to allow for users in all parts of the world to carry our climate model runs. Is there anyone on this list who is in Nairobi, or, even better, at the University of Nairobi, who would be willing to meet with Geoffrey at the University's Meteorology department for help installing Ubuntu on three PCs and then help installing the PRECIS model via a simple shell script? If so, please contact myself or contact Geoffrey directly - he is copied on this message. Thank you so much for any help and advice you can offer. With gratitude, David Hein -- David Hein Regional Modelling (PRECIS technical coordinator) Met Office Hadley Centre A2.49 Fitzroy Rd Exeter, Devon EX1 3PB UK david.hein@metoffice.gov.uk Tel: +44(0)1392 884089 (fax: 885681) ------------------------------ Hi!
