I have just upgraded my laptop to a MacBook Pro
with the 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor. One
of the first things was to install J, and I had
no problems there. Then the addons: most important
for me was to have LAPACK. I'm still scratching
my head about the JAL -- is that available for my
machine? Anyway, I found Trash/Packages/LAPACK (!)
and installed the lapack folder in "addons". So
lapack runs and the Studio|Labs|LAPACK works very
nicely. The SVD time test takes only 0.0159 sec on
this machine, 3 times faster than my Dell linux
desktop machine.
But, when I try to run Studio|Demos|eigenpictures
I get the "Demo requires LAPACK" popup. Why does
the demo not know LAPACK is there? Any clues that
will save me time running that down would be appreciated.
And what about this JAL/Package Manager (sorry, I've
not kept up with the discussions)? I've put wget on
this machine, but where do I go from there? The fact
that LAPACK was under "Trash" suggests that I should
be using JAL, doesn't it?
