You don't install OpenMP. OpenMP is a feature of the compiler. Check that the compiler you are using implements OpenMP, which is an API for parallel programming in C/C++/Fortran.

Check with the OpenMP website, openmp.org for a list of compilers and platforms that support OpenMP programming.

I have installed gcc 4.6 by using the command sudo apt-get install gcc 4.6 and the output is: – Anita 7 May 31 '12 at 19:46

gcc 4.6 implements version 3.0 of the OpenMP standart. You have to enable it by using: gcc -fopenmp foo.c – pschwarte May 31 '12 at 20:51
Thank you so much but I had to install the version 11.04 and now the output is: ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get install gcc-4.5 Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done gcc-4.5 is already the newest version. 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 278 not upgraded. The version of the OMP is the same? Can I still use the same command? – Anita 7 May 31 '12 at 21:56
