Hi, I installed Bricscad v14 on Ubuntu 10.04 only to find out it doesn't work, it doesn't even open when I click on it. According to Bricscad Ubuntu 10.04 is no longer supported.

However, I want to uninstall it and it doesn't even show in the software center to remove it.

Any ideas on how to achieve this?

     I think nothing was installed in the first place.  The installer dependencies cannot be satisfied on 10.04, the c runtime is too old.
    The installation location is /opt/bricsys/bricscad/v14.  Probably it does not exist.

    Our policy is to build BricsCAD on the oldest Ubuntu that is still supported for the desktop, which is 12.04 LTS.

    Hi, thank you Tijs, sadly I read about your policy after trying to install ;P he he, I will check if the location exists.

    I will probably upgrade to 12.04 now that there seems to be a stable linuxcnc controller for it too and try again.

    Thanks for this great product.

    Have a nice day.

    Hi, just wanted to let you know that I checked this and the folders does exist, however, if I click on the exe file it doesn't start.

    For some reason, Bricscad now appears in the Ubuntu Software centre so I was able to uninstall it from there, looking forward to update to 12.04 to have Briscad working.

    Have a nice day
