Thanks Peter to help me,
.  
No there is no problem with dvips :
.
Fanch at elessar:/tmp$ dvips -o essai.ps essai.dvi

Dvi file seems to be ok. The 3 graphics appear whith xdvi and in the pdf file if I use dvipdf.
.
I really think that is a problem with the 2010 version of dvips. I'll have no such problem with my old 2008 version.
.
I've found in a backup, the /usr/local/texlive/2008 directory. But I don't know, how to use it to test the old dvips. The Tex system prefPane doesn't "see" this directory.
.
I've looked the .ps file with both : gs and XEmacs
