Hi Phil, I'm pretty sure that you just delete the installation directory (default: /usr/local/Wolfram/Mathematica/8.0) and shell scripts (default: math, mathematica Mathematica, MathKernel and mcc in /usr/local/bin). Also, remove any menu items created in the desktop environment. Simon P.S. after a quick google search, here's what is suggested on http://blog.philippklaus.de/2009/11/uninstall-mathematica-on-ubuntu-linux/ """ Basically, you have to: delete the folders /usr/local/Wolfram and /usr/share/Mathematica. remove a number of links in /usr/local/bin: mathematica mcc Mathematica math MathKernel. in your home directory you can remove the folder ~/.Mathematica The following five commands do that all: sudo rm -rf /usr/local/Wolfram sudo rm -rf /usr/share/Mathematica cd /usr/local/bin sudo rm mathematica mcc Mathematica math MathKernel rm -rf ~/.Mathematica """
