 hi,just i download the non-commercial version of l_cprof_p_11.1.064_ia32, and my computer parameter is Core 2 9400,with the ubuntu 9.10.
when i install the ifort 11.1,i got this information :
missing optional pre-requisite
-- operating system type is not supported.
-- system glibc or kernel version not supported or not detectable
-- binutils version not supported or not detectable
however, i chose to ignore it,then the ifort is successfully installed. but when i do the following step, i got the problem:
source ifort.csh ia32,error

and now i wanna to uninstall  in the ubuntu 9.10, i have the commad as follows:apt-get remove ifort,but it has no use

thank you

OK, start over. The package you downloaded, "l_cpro..._ia32.tgz" is JUST the 32bit compiler. You said you have a Core 2, so the Ubuntu you install is probably the x86_64 64bit version of Ubuntu, yes? (use the command 'uname -a' to confirm).

So you need to download the 32 and 64 bit compilers. This package is "l_cprof_p_11.1.064.tgz". start to download that package. https://registrationcenter.intel.com is where you register your serial number and get access to all the compiler versions for download.

And while you are waiting for the download, read this installation guide:

Keep in mind Ubuntu 9.10 seems to work fine with the compiler when you follow the directions above, but it is not officially supported.

Quoting from a previous post: http://software.intel.com/en-us/forums/showpost.php?p=99918

Just add "ppa:jason-scheunemann/ppa" (without the quotes) to your list of software sources (in the menu System>Administration>Software Sources, or in Synaptic). After that, run:

sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude install gcc g++ alien lib32stdc++5 libstdc++5

Not sure if the gcc-multilib and g++-multilib packages are also necessary.
