Hi Jan,

Thanks for all the info.  Especially the partner repo, I wasn't aware
of that.  Hopefully this thread will help anybody who might run into
problems (or me, once I upgrade!).

The only item I ever need to switch in the "alternatives" scheme is
the "java" link, and then some of the others tend to come along.  I
don't even see an "appletviewer" in /etc/alternatives on the system
I'm on right now, which has a functioning JMOL under 9.10.

Sounds like Dan Drake has a simple test working on a clean 10.04
install (thanks, Dan!), so that is good news, I believe.  If you want
to test your setup, in the notebook, try something simple like just

var('x y')
plot3d(x^2+y^2, (x,-2,2), (y,-2,2))

and that should be good enough for openers.

Thanks,
Rob
