Looking at that screenshot, it looks like mprime is paused based on the line "Hit enter to continue:" that's showing up in the terminal.

[code] Main Menu

1. Test/Primenet
2. Test/Worker threads
3. Test/Status
4. Test/Continue
5. Test/Exit[/code]

You need to select option 4 for the work to actually commence. If you want to skip the menu, merely running mprime without the -m option (or mprime -d if you want screen output) will suffice. (I only run mprime on my server, where I keep it running as `./mprime -d` in a screen instance.)
