Hi, What is the output of
cat /proc/cpuinfo on both computers? You need to use manage before typing the above. The error message you're getting specifically means that Sage was built on a machine with a processor that is much newer than yours. Did you actually read the error message? Here it is: " Warning! This Sage install was build on a machine that supports instructions that are not available on this computer. Sage will likely fail with Illegal Instruction errors!" -- William On Wed, Apr 29, 2009 at 12:21 PM, gemili <j...@gmx.de> wrote: > > a) Same problem. Sage 3.2.3 runs, Sage 3.4.1 does not run.
