Thanks for the suggestions. I have now installed icedtea6-plugin and
sun-java6-plugin together with their dependencies etc. Running sage
still gives no output and no error message.
However, when I run in notebook mode I get a solid black square with a
message saying 'jmol loading' with a countdown. The square then stays
black. While this is progress of a kind, it still gives no image.
Best,
Jack
