Problem with function "solve"

Well I am trying to solve a big system of linear equations on Axiom. It's
equations are stored in a list called D. The problem is, when I call the
function solve(D), it gives me an error, saying the system doesn't have a
finite number of answers. I first thoguht it is because the system is not
determined.

But if I try solving a smaller system with the same function solve, it will
return me a parametric  answer, instead of that error

The files I annexed generate the system. If you read all files on axiom and
then call principal (wich is the portuguese word for "main"), you will have,
in the variables P and Q, 2 polynomials, in the variable lista, a list
containing information on some straight lines ([a,b,c] meaning
"a*x+b*y+c=0), and, in the variable D, the system that will be solved, that
was creating based on P, Q, and lista. But, if you tri to solve(D), it won't
work, even thought D actually contains a system (you can chek by just
printing it's value).

If anyone knows why the function solve isn't working for the system D, it
would help me a lot!

Thanks!
