Downloading swarm, etc.

[Mr X.Y.Huang]

Dear members,
After some help from members and my own survey about platforms for 
multiagent systems, I found that most of them are still in the 
development stage. Swarm is also at such a stage. So, it would be 
very difficult for me to make a long term decision on what language 
and platform or library I should use. However, it seems to me that 
the swarm team has a very open ground for all the users to discuss 
their interests, their problems, and their suggestions about Swarm, I 
decided to have a serious try to download it.
Can anyone give me some information about requirements for
(1) set up Linux operation system
(2) set X window (is that the best for graphics when Swarm is used)
(3) download Swarm library
(please also tell me whether there are other things I need for 
building up a multi-agent system in simulating travellers' 
behaviour in a transportation system (I described such a simulation 
system a few days ago)? 
By requirements, I mean the computer type (my current computer is 
586),  memory space, copyright, and where to get these software, etc.
Thanks!
