New to Linux ;) Trying to get super_pi to run and keep getting cant run executable in the command shell.

I think the command shell is bash. Is that not what I should use?

you need to run it with the program wine
Install wine in your comp then run

wine super_pi

there is a special superpi for linux.
try this

Superpi shows how much performance linux has.
e6400 stock:
windows = 25 sec
linux = 21 sec

-open terminal
-go to superpi folder
-./super_pi 20

OK will try thanks. Google turned up that ocforums thread, but I think he's useing Ubintu or something other than Xandros because the "sh" isnt working for me.

Nope I get the same error

line 1: 8847 Segmentation fault ./pi $1

I've downloaded linux pi from two different sources dont think it's corrupt. Unless I'm un taring it wrong.

I get the same error on my laptop running Gentoo. But, it works on my file server which is also Gentoo (pic (http://www.mentholmoose.net/images/super_pi.png)).
