Hi,

I have a similar problem as Brian had earlier:
http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support/browse_thread/thread/c56db77811364972/13fdcb48875e6675?lnk=gst&q=brian#13fdcb48875e6675

If I start Sage from the command line with notebook(), I get the
following messages:


sage: notebook()

What to do? I'm very concerned I cannot reach my files!

My knowledge of Linux is almost zero...
Dan Drake advised "One guess is to edit the filesystem_storage.py
file, and just above line 134, put something like "print
self._abspath(filename)" to figure out what file it is looking for. "
For me ???

Some detailed information:

* I use Sage version 4.5.3 via Firefox ( Windows)  and VM player 3.1.1
(Ubuntu).

* If I start Sage notebook within VM-player, it shows only a flash of
comments (I can't read it) and then the application closes. N.B.: If I
could catch the information, it maybe would indicate the problem.
However, I my knowledge of Linux is almost zero.

* If I start Firefox within VM-player, it shows the same information
as the Windows version.

* If I use the terminal, Sage works. N.B.: Maybe via this route I can
save my notebook files?

* Also older versions of Sage (4.1 and 4.5.1) run smoothly. N.B.: Is
this a route to get access to my 4.5.3 notebook files?

Any help is very much appreciated!

If a solution is found, I will add it to Ask Sage.

Roland
