+==== Installing Software on Linux ====
+All servers have the most common software already installed and available. See [[software_modules|Software Modules]] for more information. Users do not have permission to install software on servers, unless it is installed in one's home directory (and does not require administrator privileges). If a software package is not available, users can submit requests to cshelpdesk@virginia.edu for software to be installed.
+=== Package installation for Linux ===
+Software is installed by system admins in the ''%%/sw%%'' filesystem. This is a network filesystem filled with software that has been requested by faculty and students. Environment Modules manage software packages, please read the [[software_modules|main article on modules]] for more information.
