I symbolically integrated the function..(x^2*(x-1))^(1/3) with respect to
x.

There is in the answer... Hypergeometric2F1[2/3,2/3,5/3,x]

I can do nothing more with that..it just returns it. A Hypergeometric2F1
with different parameters like Hypergeometric2F1[2,2,5,x] gives an answer. I
am using version 3. Is Mathematica unable to compute it?

I can get the Integral with out the Hypergeometric function on the TI-92+,
(it gives the answer in a different for using Tan, etc.) but I still would
like to work with the Mathematica answer.
