Greetings, I've been working with Mathematica 4.0 under FreeBSD 4.2R for a long time with any trouble at all. My machine is a K6-2 - EpoX MVP3G5. After doing a clean install of 4.3R I just can't use Mathematica 4.0 neither Mathematica 4.1 kernels (math or MathKernel). Everytime I try to run it I get the following message: pid 307 (MathKernel), uid 1001: exited on signal 11 (core dumped) The front-end program (mathematica) works fine but alone it is useless. Besides the GENERIC kernel, I've tried a new kernel: . . . ##################################################################### # GENERAL OPTIONS # # # machine i386 ident KERNEL-43R maxusers 32 makeoptions CONF_CFLAGS=-fno-builtin #Don't allow use of memcmp, etc. See LINT options MAXDSIZ="(518*1024*1024)" #See LINT options DFLDSIZ="(256*1024*1024)" #See LINT #options COMPAT_LINUX #options I586_PMC_GUPROF=0x70000 ##################################################################### # CPU OPTIONS # # # cpu I586_CPU # Options for CPU features - See LINT for details # options CPU_FASTER_5X86_FPU options CPU_WT_ALLOC options NO_MEMORY_HOLE options NO_F00F_HACK ##################################################################### # COMPATIBILITY OPTIONS # # # options COMPAT_43 options USER_LDT #allow user-level control of i386 ldt # System V shared memory and tunable parameters options SYSVSHM # include support for shared memory # System V semaphores and tunable parameters options SYSVSEM # include support for semaphores # System V message queues and tunable parameters options SYSVMSG # include support for message queues # XXX - this doesn't belong here. # Allow ordinary users to take the console - this is useful for X. options UCONSOLE ~ # XXX - this doesn't belong here either options USERCONFIG #boot -c editor options INTRO_USERCONFIG #imply -c and show intro screen options VISUAL_USERCONFIG #visual boot -c editor . . . I've also tried COMPAT_LINUX enabled . I've tried the patched version of linux_base port (which uses some RedHat 7.0 rpms - yes, I've managed to install it properly), again with no success. The strangest thing, in my opinion, is the fact that both 4.2R and 4.3R have the same linux_base package. Wouldn't it be something in the kernel code, specially the AMD,K6,K6-2 stuff? In other machines (an Athlon - ASUS A7V) with 4.3R, Mathematica 4.1 runs flawlessly. It also runs OK in my machine using Linux. Any hints? Sincerely Leonardo F.
