[SOLVED] Mathematica cause a logout on start

[T-Diddy]

Hello All:

I have recently just installed Hardy and purchased Mathemetica. I have it installed in the default directories suggested by the mathematica installation script. However, when I type

mathemtica

at the prompt, the screen goes blank and logs me out. I tried making an alias to start Mathematica via:

alias mathematica='mathematica -noSplashScreen'

Still no dice....

Any ideas?

Cheers,

t.

Turns out it was a "corrupted cache." Followed the instructions on the Wolfram website and got it cleared up. Oh, right...the solution...

mathematica -cleanStart

Re: MAthematica cause a logout on start

my friend, it seems a lot of problems are related on Mathematica + *buntu.
Try to follow these instructions

Post here your results but don't forget to mention which Mathematica version you have.
