On the web page http://wiki.sagemath.org/DownloadAndInstallationGuide, there is some slight misinformation for Macintosh computers which seems to be causing some people to have confusion about which version of Sage to install. If the Processor type is reported as "Intel Core Duo", people should be directed to install the 32-bit Intel version of the software, even if the O/S is running MacOS X 1.5 or greater, because these processors are 32-bit and not 64-bit, even though the O/S is 64-bit capable.
Running the 64-bit application on a 32-bit processor will result in the commonly found error: > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > | Sage Version 4.3.2, Release Date: 2010-02-06 | > | Type notebook() for the GUI, and license() for information. | > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > env: python: Bad CPU type in executable Kevin Marinelli UConn Mathematics -- 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 URL: http://www.sagemath.org
