What do I need ? ================ Due to our limited access to some architectures we can't provide the latest MuPAD versions for all platforms. To use MuPAD you will need the latest available binary package for your platform and the according share package of the same MuPAD version. E.g. to install MuPAD 1.4.2 for Linux you will need the packages bin_linux_142.tgz + share_142.tgz (The only exception is MuPAD for Darwin. The package bin_darwin_200.tgz contains all necessary files) These binary packages are available: Release 2.5 ----------- bin_linux_250.tgz - Linux 2.x with glibc >= 2.1.x bin_solaris_250.tgz - SunOS 5.4 or higher + share_250.tgz If you encounter problems with one of these installations, please try first to use the shared libraries provided in the files linux_libs.tgz and solaris_libs.tgz. You only need to unpack them into your MuPAD installation. Release 2.0 ------------- bin_darwin_200.tgz - Apple Darwin (MacOS X) Release 1.4.2 ------------- bin_i386_142.tgz - Linux 2.0 with libc 5.4.x + share_142.tgz Release 1.4.1 ------------- bin_ibmrs6000_141.tgz - IBM RS6000 / AIX bin_sgi5_141.tgz - SGI / IRIX 5.x bin_sun4_141.tgz - SunOS 4.5.1 + share_141.tgz Release 1.4.0 ------------- bin_hp_140.tgz - HP-UX 10 bin_sgi6_140.tgz - SGI / IRIX 6.x + share_140.tgz Release 1.3.0 ------------- bin_alpha_130.tgz - OSF1 V4.0 DEC Alpha bin_freebsd_130.tgz - FreeBSD 2.2 for PC bin_i86pc_130.tgz - SunOS 5.5 for PC bin_nextx86_130.tgz - NeXT Mach 3.3 (Intel 586) bin_openbsd_130.tgz - OpenBSD 2.1 for PC bin_pmax_130.tgz - ULTRIX 4.3 MP-3.22 RISC + share_130.tgz + INSTALL_130.html Release 1.2.9 ------------- bin_aminetbsd_129.tgz - NetBSD 1.2 on Amiga + share_129.tgz Installation ------------ 1) create a MuPAD directory (e.g. /usr/local/MuPAD) 2) unpack the binary package and the share package in this directory with GNU tar (*): tar xzpf bin_${ARCH}_XXX.tgz tar xzpf share_XXX.tgz (*) If you don't have GNU tar first gunzip the *.tgz archives and then use your system tar. 3) Extend your path (for tcsh/csh in ~/.cshrc) set path = ($path /usr/local/MuPAD/share/bin) (for sh/bash/ksh in ~/.profile) PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/MuPAD/share/bin export PATH 4) Now you can start 'mupad' or 'xmupad' If you have XView/X11 library problems refer to the ftp sub-directory XVIEW. Also refer to /usr/local/MuPAD/TroubleShooting Registration ------------ The unregistered MuPAD installation has a memory limit. For registration please contact info@sciface.com Once you have received your registration code simply start mupad or xmupad (as a user with write access to the MuPAD tree) and type: register( "code_name", "code" ); where code_name and code are taken from the MuPAD license agreement. *** Note that the registration keys have changed for version 2.0. *** Users of earlier versions need a new key.
