Hy
I am about to install Yellow Dog Linux on my new G4 Cube, so it is very
assuring to read that Maple runs well in Mac on Linux. However, Mac on
Linux is an emmulator, doesn't Maple run much slower?
Also: plots generated with Maple V R5.1 and Maple 6 on a G4 tower and the
G4 Cube print well in Ink Jet printers (I've tried it in an Epson Stylus
600 and a Cannon BJ-something), whereas on laser printers the cursed black
rectangle appears. I had the color settings to 256 and did not try printing
with thousands or million colors.
I am in no mood to change Open GL extensions, I think it is up to WMI to
generate a patch to correct this nasty bug !!
