I have installed wxMaxima. All works fine except for plotting. Steps: 1. Select the button "plot 2D" (or "plot 3D") from the GUI (or from the menu) 2. in the opened dialog there is the default format option "inline" 3. wxMaxima execute the command "wxplot2d" 4. the command fail with an inline error box with a large X is displayed with error written Reproducible: always. Note: if I manually write the "plot2d" command (or "plot3d") or if i choose the "gnuplot" format all is drawed correctly in a new window but is not drawed inline.

I forget to inform you that I'm running on x86 machine. Many thanks!
Please write down the error message displayed in the box and post it here, and also include the output from "emerge --info"...

Created attachment 169926 [details] a snapshoot that show the bug As you can see wxplot2d command fail with error, but plot2d show the correct image.
Hi, This seems to work fine on newer versions (maxima-5.16.3, wxmaxima-0.7.6, gnuplot-4.2.4-r1). Could you try at least with gnuplot-4.2.4-r1, I suspect to be a mix between wxgtk versions. Thanks.

Could you try at least with gnuplot-4.2.4-r1, I suspect to > be a mix between wxgtk versions. Upgraded to: x11-libs/wxGTK-2.8.9.1-r1 [2.8.8.1] USE="X odbc opengl sdl -debug -doc -gnome -gstreamer -pch" sci-visualization/gnuplot-4.2.4-r1 [4.2.3-r2] USE="X latex pdf plotutils readline svga wxwindows -doc -emacs -gd -ggi -xemacs" sci-mathematics/maxima-5.16.3 [5.14.0] USE="X latex nls tk unicode -clisp -cmucl -emacs -gcl -sbcl -xemacs" LINGUAS="-es -pt -pt_BR" sci-mathematics/wxmaxima-0.7.6 [0.7.4] USE="unicode" The software seems very stable. The startup error is now solved (the long text described at the beginning of the comment #3), but the wxplot2d error remains. Calling wxplot2d produces the same error followed by this textual error: "set term png ^"/home/gordon/maxout.gnuplot", line 1: unknown or ambiguous terminal type; type just 'set terminal' for a list". Solved with the use-flag "gd" added to gnuplot (and re-emerged). Now all works fine! Thanks for your help!
