Help with using CAS math like Maxima?

[matan]

The segment about it in the math lyx guide is quite lacking, and even so, I
managed to configure Maxima correctly and created a shortcut for "maxima
simplify".

When I use it for multiple things, it doesn't work:
I want it to solve integrals and matrix algebra, including RREF and matrix
multiplication, as well as different decompositions of matrices.
Here's what I get when I try those things:

The matrices are in pmatrix if it changes anything.

Simple numerical calculations, limits, sums, the determinant, and things
like solve and powerseries command seem to work (also, where can I get a
list of all those built-in functions?).

Also, the integral examples here are directly from the math guide and don't
seem to work (while tinkering with this, it seemed like big Pi products
also don't work - but it's way more niche, so not that important for me
right now).

Any idea how to correct this and make it work as intended?


Thanks for your help in advance,

Matan.
