+MPI package for Octave
+======================
 
 Examples of Octave scripts using MPI are located under the examples/
-subdirectory. This subdirectory also contains a shell wrapper around mpirun to
-facilitate the execution of distributed jobs.
+subdirectory.
 
-Note that, because of a dynamic linking issue with OpenMPI, it is necessary to
-preload libmpi.so before running Octave on each node. This can be achieved with
-something like:
+You can test your MPI installation by running the helloworld.m script from
+within that examples/ directory:
 
- mpirun -x LD_PRELOAD=libmpi.so <other_mpi_options> octave <arguments_to_octave>
+ mpirun --hostfile $HOSTFILE -np $NUMBER_OF_MPI_NODES octave -q --eval 'helloworld ()'
