How to install Packet Tracer 6.2 on Ubuntu 14.04 64bit?

Can you explain me how to install step-by-step? Why Can't I run packet tracer 6.2 on Ubuntu 14.04 64bit? Please suggest me! Thanks

Solution 1:

To install packet tracer 6.2 on 14.04, download this file to your /home directory and extract it

tar -xzf ~/Cisco Packet Tracer 6.2 for Linux - Ubuntu installation - Student version.tar 

Now change to the extracted directory

cd PacketTracer62Student

Now execute the installer

./install

Follow the on screen instructions, when you are done run

packettracer

Now your program will start.

As pointed out by the OP this is 32bit package, to run a 32bit package on a 64bit system, simply run this command to add the architecture

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
