Hmm. In Maxima, what is the value of the variable gnuplot_command ?
In the command shell from which you launch Maxima,
what does
which gnuplot
report?
What I'm trying to figure out is, are you sure that you're executing
the new version of Gnuplot? If you are not executing the new
Gnuplot, run
make install
in the Gnuplot build directory if you have sufficient privilege,
or assign gnuplot_command : "/home/your/path/to/gnuplot" .
Maxima creates an output file which is just a list of numbers
and then executes Gnuplot to draw the plot.
The output file is /home/you/maxout.gnuplot_pipes if I'm not
mistaken. In Gnuplot, what do you get from:
plot "/home/you/maxout.gnuplot_pipes"
For the record, I'm working on Ubuntu 8.04 (x86) + cmucl 19a.

PS. what is the content of your maxout.gnuplot_pipes file?
