I have installed axiom-Sept2005-FC4-bin.tgz on Fedora Core 5 (in /usr/local), following the instructions in the download page, but execution of axiom does not produce any proper output. Ie it produces a pair of blank lines and closes again, returning the prompt to the console. On the other hand, axiom -h works.

Some variations occur, eg with option noclef it closes without blank lines, and with iw it opens an X term for a second and then it closes. And here some other ones:

========= [root@localhost bin]?# axiom -nogo Would now start the processes. exec /usr/local/axiom/mnt/linux/bin/sman -ws /usr/local/axiom/mnt/linux/bin/FRICASsys [root@localhost bin]?# ps aux | axiom clef trying to get the initial terminal settings: Invalid argument

root@localhost bin]# axiom -list AXIOM workspaces in $AXIOM/bin = /usr/local/axiom/mnt/linux/bin: -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 13650944 Sep 5 23:20 FRICASsys

Would now start the processes. exec /usr/local/axiom/mnt/linux/bin/sman -ws /usr/local/axiom/mnt/linux/bin/FRICASsys

==========

What is the problem?

You may want to try an RPM I made for FC4:
