When I try to run Mathematica I get the error: “xset: bad font path element”. What should I do?
All machines that display the Mathematica front end (graphical user interface) must have access to the fonts included with Mathematica. If the Mathematica process is running on a remote machine and the front end is displayed on the local machine, the X server on the local machine must know where to find the Mathematica fonts. In order to run mathematica on the BU SCF systems and have it display on your remote (eg. office or home) machine, you need two things: the Mathematica fonts and an Xserver. • Mathematica Fonts: The latest version of the MathFonts. • Xservers: Most computers running Linux and OS/X will already have an Xserver installed so it is only a matter of installing the fonts on those computers. For windows, you can get an Xserver by downloading and installing X-Win32.
