This minimal example compiles with no errors. The DVI shows the curved 
line but the text is in a straight line across the top of the curves.
Thanks in advance for any advice.

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{pstricks,pst-text}

\begin{document}

\begin{center}

\psset{unit=3.5cm,linecolor=lightgray}


\begin{pspicture}(-1.5,-1)(1.5,0)

\pstextpath{\pscurve(-1.41,0)(-1,-1)(0,0)(1,-1)(1.41,0)
{\color{blue}\large Esta frase sinuose y peculiar est\'a escrita a log 
largo de la curve $y=x^4-2x^2$}}

\end{pspicture}

\end{center}

\end{document}

Regards
Richard.
