If access to such resources is required, then that should be something handled in a privileged task and not require giving users wholesale access to devices.Ģ) As pointed out elsewhere in this forum, Mathematica failing with a seemingly totally unrelated licensing failure when access to these devices isn’t granted, is less than ideal. There are however a few issues, to summarize:ġ) I’m not sure how comfortable anyone should be with non-privileged users getting access to /dev/fb0 and /dev/vchiq just to run Mathematica. Not sure I’m happy about the security implications of this… (In case future versions of Kali have different default permissions, commented out the otherwise required steps for /dev/fb0 ) #chgrp video /dev/fb0įor each non-root user who wants to successfully use Mathematica, the following is required: sudo usermod -a -G video $(whoami) For /dev/vchiq we need to do this manually. Mathematica requires rather questionable access to /dev/vchiq and /dev/fb0 the latter of which is already group video with group read-write access. apt install libatomic1:armhf libgl1:armhf

install-wolfram-engine-13.1.0.shĪs Mathematica installs 32-bit binaries, it may have overlooked some following dependencies, the 64-bit versions of these libraries were already on my system and may have been taken for granted (although it might have been installed as a dependency for something else.) As new releases come, this may resolve itself, you'll just have to watch the error messages and act accordingly. Run whatever script the above link downloads, currently that’s: (and this may take a while, as it downloads the bulk of the install) bash. In case you haven’t done so, make an attempt of making your installation a 32/64-bit multi-architecture system: dpkg -add-architecture armhfĭownload the Raspberry Pi Mathematica Installer from Wolfram Research wget Since, from what I understand the bundle license for personal use of Mathematica is tied to the Raspberry hardware and not to the Raspian OS, and since I prefer the 64-bit version of Kali Linux to Raspian, here the steps I took to get Mathematica working on my RasPi under Kali Linux: Finance, Statistics & Business Analysis.Wolfram Knowledgebase Curated computable knowledge powering Wolfram|Alpha.
