Hello,
We're running Maple 8 on Mandrake, and we've run it on Debian before
with no problems. I don't think it's a distro-sensitive issue.
Best regards Anders Ballestad.

It is undoubtedly possible to run Maple on other distros. The reason
for such statements is usually that there may be some variety in
things like the version of libc that ships with a stock distro.
I run it on Debian, myself. (6, but have an acquaintance who has 8).
The only trick might be finding out and installing the correct version
of run-time libraries, but Linux is Linux, contrary to what commercial
vendors would have you believe. Of course, you may not get it to work
right out of the box, but it *IS* possible. Since you're running
Slack, I think that wouldn't scare you anyway. <G>
Cheers,
Phil Mendelsohn

Dear Chris,
I think stata doesn't need any "RH libraries", as mostly all the Linux
libraries are available on all the distributions. RH and Slackware have
different directory structure, you have to find out what kind of
directory structure does stata need and just make some symlinks to
satisfy your software.
The same goes about Maple. I am running Maple on SuSE and Slackware
without any problems, though in every case you should carefully read all
the error messages (probably, run Maple and cat all the messages in a
file) to find out what kind of paths does it need. And if you lack some
libs, you always can download and compile them on your Slack without any
problems.
Anyway, from my point of view your choice of distribution is perfect
(I've tested many programs on RH, SuSE, Slack etc and found that Slack
is the best/fastest/most stable for running them), you just have to find
out paths of libraries. Or edit ld config file, if you decide to put
your libs in directories required for applications. Thereare many
workarounds, choose the best one for you.
Hope it helped.

I am thinking of buying maple for use on my slackware linux box. But
the maple website claims maple 8 requires SUSE or RH distros.
I already have problems with the stata I have installed, which will
run as xstata, but not as stata in console mode. Apparantly it
requires some RH libraries.
Before shelling out, I searched to find information on maple on other
distros, but couldn't find any. Anyone here run maple (successfully)
on Slackware?
Many thanks, Chris.

Subject: maple7 on debian
Hi
I'm trying to install maple7 on Debin Gnu/Linux 3.0 (woody/testing).
The fist problem was that it couldn't find libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2 but
I solved that by installing libstdc++2.9-glibc2.1.
But now I'm having problem starting xmaple. It is able to open an window
for about half a second and then it dies with a segfault.
I'm running kernel 2.4.18 (self compiled) on a P4
here is the output:
-----
./xmaple
Segmentation fault
got sig PIPE
-----
The output I get from 'strace -f ./xmaple' can be found here:
