[scilab-Users] Problem with scilab 5.3.3 and graphics

[ycollette.nospam at free.fr]

When I switched to XFCE, I noticed that a process eat all the ressources of on processor. This process is knotify4.
I think this is the source of my problem. I will try again under kde4 but I will kill knotify4 before launching scilab.
