Right now the best thing you can do is to compile Sage from source under VMware. It should work since that's exactly how I build sage for the vmware machine. If this proves impossible for you for some reason, let me know. It should be easy though. We *are* working on making it so it is possible to build sage in such a way that it doesn't require pni, etc., but that will be some months in the future. -- William --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URLs: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
