hi i used the netbsd guide from
http://wiki.netbsd.se/How_to_run_Maple_on_NetBSD/i386

to install maple 11 (the guide is for maple 10)

i have this error, wrtitten at the start of the worksheet
when calling maple

~/maple11/bin/xmaple &

Raising the limits doesnt do anything,
im not sure that the error message is correct in
any way either.

i raise the limits to thise values

# ulimit -n 1024 ulimit -d 1020720

But it doesnt help anything.


i searched for the problem and found this.

http://www.gatago.org/comp/soft-sys/math/maple/54134422.html

and created a .mapleinit  in my home directory

.mapleinit
---------------
libname:=libname,"/home/run/maple11/lib";
MapleInitRead:=true;
---------------

But it seems that maple11 lacks some files that maple10 has

I got maple on a student license, dont know if that means anything.


Anyone encountered (and maybe solved) this proble?
