avast home edition for linux(ubuntu 7.4)64 bit system]

[Munip Ober]

Thanks for your suggestion.
  I have tried it.Logo is present on the screen.
  on double click. "avast is running" message.it stops in 1-2 second .But there is no action on screen.
   
  I am entering "avast"command and "avasgui" on terminal.
  It says "command not found". But that command is present in that directory.
   
  Thanks for helping.

  Hallo,

the problem isn't in the filename, but in the architecture. Of course - 
you can force the installation architecture (and in the case of any 
further problem when running the app, take a look here: 
http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=26492.0 ). The architecture is 
_anyway_ i386 internally, so the package labeling is correct (yes, we 
could "fake" the target architecture to "amd64" and produce another 
package with this minor change only, but it can be solved easily at the 
end-user side as well):

try to use dpkg -i --force-architecture 
avast4workstation_1.0.8-2_i386.deb and this should solve Your problem. 
If not, please tell me about it and we'll try another solution.

Regards,
Pavel Cimbal
