Unfortunately I can't give you any concrete suggestions, but I can tell you what I know. - Maple 10 uses Java 1.4, but it can be made to run with Java 1.5 if you install the Apache Crimson component. See this thread for details: http://beta.mapleprimes.com/forum/problem-with-maple-under-java-1-5-on-osx I would expect Maple to work if you can get it installed. - There used to be an option to install Maple from the command line. Does the installer has a --help option ? Can anyone from Maplesoft comment on this ? I think it would be the best way to go.

It is encouraging that your Gentoo system will run Maple. It may be that I find Gentoo is the correct balance between my desire to control everything about my OS and the ability to actually get some work done! Until I arrive at that point though... I can't seem to get the installer to run with any kind of --help option. I may uninstall my Java 1.5 and see if things are any better with 1.4 as a last throw of the dice. So, does anyone have any other ideas?

I've tried playing with Gentoo to see if I could get Maple to work. The short version of my story is this: My initial Gentoo build had glibc-2.3 and Maple-9.5 worked fine. Upgrading to glibc-2.4 makes Maple-9.5 installer fail with the same errors as before. I shall see if my university has a license for Maple-10 and post what happens. Roman - what version of glibc are you running? Should I notify anyone upstream of the problems with the installer?

Since that company has been acquired by Macrovision, the documentation is available <a href="http://www.macrovision.com/downloads/flexnet_installshield/installanywhere/documentation.shtml">here </a>. BTW: Maple 8 used version 4.5, and Maple 9 used version 5.

It is whatever version was current in January of this year. I was also using Maple 10 - I've never tried Maple 9.5 with NPTL. This is basically a bug (although it is technically unsupported). Can anyone in the company comment on this thread ? The latest comments added to the Post, Maple 10 on modern linux - NPTL and Java VM. 90608 Thu, 23 Mar 2006 02:14:22 Z roman_pearce roman_pearce
