William, Sorry having problems first I can't seem to cut and past from VMware to windows
The screen looks like. Welcome to Sage: http://www.sagemath.org Type one of the following. notebook -- start the Sage notebook server off -- turn this machine off manage --- ect sage -- run the sage command line sage login: If I type "notebook" it just reprints the above message. It does not seem to start a server. Do I need to set an option in VMplayer? My second point was that I can run the tutorial from the Sage command line. However, if I try "show" or "plot" from the command line version of sage I get no graphics. I also tried to run notebook from the command line sage, and It did not work. As you pointed it without the server running in vmplayer it should not have worked. So I think I have two questions. 1. Why does the notebook command not work from the above screen? Do I need to set up network connections options in VMplayer? 2. Should I be able to run graphics from the command line version of sage?
