Math & Science ⇒ Polyglossia, Math mode, XeTeX

[nitrogen28]

Hi everyone,

I am trying to convert my LaTeX thesis template from english to german. With a little help from my friends in this forum I could complete the task pretty well.
However, there is one problem that I was not able to solve.

I am using XeTeX, so I can set Verdana as the default font. Polyglossia is used to set up the german language. But there seems to be a conflict between polyglossia and any equation .
When I compile the document it gets suck without an error message:

...
*geometry* driver: auto-detecting
*geometry* detected driver: xetex
(./Test3.toc (/usr/local/texlive/2010/texmf-dist/tex/latex/amsfonts/umsa.fd)
(/usr/local/texlive/2010/texmf-dist/tex/latex/amsfonts/umsb.fd))

When i remove the equation or the polyglossia package everything works fine.

Code: Select all

Code, edit and compile here:

Run LaTeX here

Anyone has an idea what this could be about?

Thanks
