Any port up to and including port 1000 requires root privileges to open on Linux (same on OSX and Unix by the way). So in order to work you either need to sudo or run Sage as root - both options I would highly discourage. Thank you. I will not run sage as root, of course :) Robert

Thank you Simon, I will try that. For those who are looking to reproduce my problem, the code is very very simple: load SPOCs.sage save (SPOC,'SPOCs.sobj') SPOCs.sage, approx 12MB, defines SPOC as a list of matrices. It is available at http://www.math.utexas.edu/~allcock/SPOCs.sage Thanks

There are two ways to use Sage, via the notebook or via a command prompt. Which is better depends on personal preference, but I don't think they can be used at the same time (without starting a new copy of Sage), as the prompt console is used by the notebook server. To get the prompt, one
