Mathematica

Hello

I have installed the software Mathematica 6 in my pc. However when I launch that application the following error appears in the gnome console:

Anyone knows how solve that errors???

thankks

The problem is solved with the command -defaultvisual

thanks

Thanks posting your solution, I was getting the same errors and fonts weren’t showing up correctly and that fixed it.

[QUOTE=npsilva;1843512]The problem is solved with the command -defaultvisual
I got the same problem as the OP, does anyone why it happens so?
the solution ‘-defaultvisual’ actually solves the problem, but i don’t understand why mathematica was working well before and now i always have to use this option.
not long time ago i switched from runlevel3 to Runlevel4 and now i ran mathematica the first time since the switch. do you think this is the source of the problem?

Hi,

I recently installed Mathematica 7 on my laptop and when I do mathematica & in a terminal I get no errors. Perhaps it is fixed in the new version, though I haven’t used it extensively yet.
