ok, so I have re-installed everything correctly, I think.  Everything 
seems to work, except for the following.  When I try to run the stokes 
demo, I get some viper related error:

There are more error messages, but they are not helpful.  When it plots 
`v' the first time, it is ok.  When it tried to plot a second time, then 
this over allocation error happens.  I don't understand why it is trying 
to allocate 3.2 x 10^11 elements.  I did not change the demo.
