Dear Group.

After more than a week of running evaluation I have to reboot a
computer (due to some technical reasons, related to problems of other 
users).

In the frontend (calculations actualy are done using graphics interface 
on remote's linux computer xvnc display) I enter <alt> <comma> . This 
allows me to 
enter Dialog session and make Dumpsave["file.mx"]. Is it possible
to continue unfinished calculations after reboot?

If the session interuption started in console interface, I would just 
enter math -x < file.mx . However I dont know how to restore 
kernel mathlink 
connection to the frontend's notebooks interface.

Should I start a kernel with math -x < file.mx line in the mathlink dialog 
box (which I doubt will work), or there are some other clever ways to make 
raw mathlink connection?


Is it possible to continue calculations in my case?


Sincerely Arturas Acus
