Calibre: Bus error

Hi all

I'm trying to run calibre but it won't run.

When I try to run it from a terminal using the command "calibre" the only error shown is "bus error".

Trying to uninstall using the command line in the calibre download page won't do the trick.

Can somenone help me? Thanks!

BTW I'm using ubuntu linux

Which version # of Ubuntu (and is it the normal 32bit or AMD64)
Did you copy and paste the ENTIRE line?
Did it ask for the Sudo password?

Would putting Calibre on a R.A.I.D drive keep the bugs away
