1) What version of Axiom are you using?

2) How did you install Axiom?

3) How did you install TeXmacs? From source? From binary?
   Which binary version?

4) The tm_axiom interface program that is distributed with
   TeXmacs should be configured to run only the 'AXIOMsys'
   program - **not** the 'axiom' shell script. This is the
   standard configuration. Some people modify tm_axiom to
   also run the Axiom graphics, but this requires some
   additional changes to tm_axiom.c and re-compilation.

5) When you type 'AXIOMsys' in the console, you should see
   only the main Axiom process start, with only the banner
   information and one '(1) ->' prompt. If you see more than
   one prompt, then you probably have an 'AXIOMsys' script
   that starts Axiom in the wrong mode. The symptoms of
   this would be similar to what you describe because the
   extra prompt breaks the communication between Axiom and
   TeXmacs.

Let me know if this helps. Or if you have more questions.
