I'm Ubuntu user myself and recommend to install it from source when you use Ubuntu. Here's a link how to do it: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1382405
I personally had troubles with the precompiled versions myself from time to time. Although it is more time consuming to build from source it is most times safer and it is ensured that everything like correct architecture etc. will work. But to give a more helpful answer to your question: Have you checked that the folder sage is pointing to the files it demands really are contained in it? Perhaps something went wrong with unpacking.
