Sergey, after 20 hours of hard slog I have finally got proper latex support. The mimetex works well, and probably should be the default on the mediawiki distribution as most servers have Mime support. I did have difficulties getting the mimetex.cgi file though. I kept on getting segmentation faults, which was probably due to the way I downloaded it.
I probably owe you a beer.
cheers, Andy

I have a project on Sourceforge that has a mediawiki (1.6.8), which is working well. I want to enable Math support for latex equations. It doesn't work, and I've read all the "it doesn't work pages"
Sourceforge does not allow the webserver to create images on the fly. I had a similar problem and ended up using mimetex: see http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/LaTex_on_a_shared_host or http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mimetex_alternative
