Mathematica

Due to licensing restrictions, Mathematica is nodelocked to the master node on amdahl, and cannot be run on the compute nodes.

In order to make sure that your X display has access to the fonts that Mathematica uses, you will need to make sure that the font files are available to your X server.

For example, to prepare a Unix system such as one available in rm. 139, log in to the local system with the display and run the following commands:

 mkdir $HOME/Fonts
 scp -r amdahl:/usr/local/mathematica/SystemFiles/Fonts/* $HOME/Fonts

 xset fp+ $HOME/Fonts/Type1
 xset fp+ $HOME/Fonts/AFM
 xset fp+ $HOME/Fonts/BDF

And your X display will know about Mathematica's fonts. Future sessions can be made to use the Mathematica fonts simply be re-running the xset commands.
