Re: [Texmacs-dev] maxima plugin in 1.0.7.16 Qt version makes cpu busy

[Kostas Oikonomou]

Hi Miguel,

I am running maxima 5.26, but I don't think maxima is the 
problem.
The X version of TeXmacs works fine with maxima 5.26.
Also, the same problem occurs with other plugins, e.g. the 
gnuplot plugin.  Qt version makes cpu
busy, X version works fine.

It seems to me that there is some difference in how the Qt 
version "talks" to plugins.

By the way, all this is happening on Solaris.
