Not loading the scala profile

[meniluca]

Hi all, I'm following the instructions in the README.md, but apparently something is not working properly:

[h4ml3t@redhatnode:~/IScala-0.1]$ ./bin/console 
[IPKernelApp] To connect another client to this kernel, use:
[IPKernelApp] --existing kernel-11557.json --profile scala
In [1]: val a = 0
  File "<ipython-input-1-e58f81840f45>", line 1
    val a = 0
        ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

I don't have any clue about why it is still an ipython console. What am I overlooking? If the problem is trivial I apologize for the disturb.
Cheers,
Luca
