Thanks. That's what I've been doing so can you clarify what I should
see next please? When I type "notebook" I see lots of text and then am
returned to the 4 menu options and the Sage login prompt again.
(Effectively there's nothing left on my screen to show that I even
typed "notebook"!) Is that correct? And if so do I now ignore the
VMPlayer and its contents, returning to Firefox in Windows to try to
reach the web server? Or should I see something different in VMWare
Player? And should I do something more in VMWare Player b efore trying
Firefox.
I'm conscious I may be working with an incompatible version
combination of sage and CPU based on your earlier comments but it'd be
really helpful to understand what I should see if this were working
properly.
Thanks
