Antionio, don't forget to write to Bruker and ask if they can make you
a .deb file. It might take some effort on their part, but probably not
much. Make a point that they can make that file available to Ubuntu
users, which is currently the #1 Linux distro. Also, their site should
specify on what distros the software is designed to run, as I couldn't
find that info. It only said Linux.
