Any ideas?

Last I'd heard, Ver 6 wouldn't run on Linux. Just now, I found
this on their website:
**********************************************************
Linux x86

Linux 2.4 or later
32-bit, 64-bit

Mathematica 6 has been fully tested on all major Linux
distributions based on the 2.4 Linux kernel. On newer Linux
distributions, additional compatibility libraries may need to be
installed.
**********************************************************
So, I'd guess that you're going to have to research what those
additional libs might be...

Thanks, Claude. I have done some research, but no success. I posted a
message on the Mathematica newsgroup, but nobody has replied so far.

Has someone on the list ever succeeded with running Mathematica 6.0.3 on F9?
