I tried to install sage from source and also from PPA on Ubuntu 12.10. Both of them finish the installation without any problem, but when I run sage I get the following error:
k1@Think1:~$ sagemath

If you suspect this is an IPython bug, please report it at: https://github.com/ipython/ipython/issues or send an email to the mailing list at ipython-dev@scipy.org
You can print a more detailed traceback right now with "%tb", or use "%debug" to interactively debug it.
Extra-detailed tracebacks for bug-reporting purposes can be enabled via: c.Application.verbose_crash=True
But if I run it as root then it works fine. I have installed it all without root permission though. I thought it might be a permission problem and gave all the permissions for the files to the user k1, but still the problems exists.
So, I gained the permission to '/home/k1/.sage' and now it runs, but there are new errors:
[SageTerminalApp] Could not set security dir permissions to private.
[SageTerminalApp] Could not set pid dir permissions to private.
and I can't open the notebook().
