I installed maple 10 on a 64bit linux machine (gentoo & ubuntu). The installation went fine with the graphical (java based) installer. Afterwardss it was possible to start maple on the console. But when I try to start xmaple or maple -x nothing happens, no error, just nothing.

Hoping it was a well know bug (?) I updated (with the 64bit update) maple 10 to maple 10.03. But still the same problem.

Due to the fact xmaple is a java based program, could it depend on the 64bit java shipped with the software?

I found in the forum two postings with exactly the same problem, without a satifying solution:

http://beta.mapleprimes.com/forum/xmaple-on-fedora-core-4-64bit-doesnt-start

Any help would be welcome. Thanks in advance.
