I connect to my raspi by ssh with X11 forwarding enabled. I can start xclock and it gets displayed to my X Display on a Fedora system, so no problem there.

I then installed the wolfram package and try to start it in X11 mode, but it always only starts the interactive shell. What do I need to do to start the wolfram package in X11 mode to display it on my remote computer?

    Running mathematica via SSH brought up the Wolfram Mathematica window remotely for me.

  • Just curious, what program were you running?

  • I used the "wolfram" command, but this is just the interpreter for the language. And when I took a look into the package with dpkg -L I just must have missed the mathematica command.

  • Please excuse me for this related question. I also use mathematica in a RPi in a exported X11 display over SSH in a LAN, and it is rather slow. Even typing is slow, if you type quickly, the interface has to catch you. I was wondering if this also happens in the local X server or if it only happens in remote. I don't have my RPi connected to a display. Thanks :)
