It seems that some people are having problems running
the labs on Athena. We're still not sure exactly what's
causing this since it seems not everybody has this problem
(only some people).
Anyway, if AFTER you have followed the instructions
in the email Henry Wong sent, you still can't run Spirograph
or Binsort, try the following:
1) If your system is complaining about "java: command not found", enter
add javadev
add 6.096
in an xterm.
2) If you can run java, but it can't find the class files (e.g.,
BinSort.Main not found), then type
setenv CLASSPATH .:/mit/6.096/share/classes
in an xterm and try running java again (from the same xterm).
Note that you'll probably have to type these things again *every
time you log-in*.
If you have any more problems, please send email to 6.096-staff@mit.edu
