The author has computed the differential system giving the secular evolution of the 8 main planets of the solar system up to the order 2 with respect to the masses and degree 5 in eccentricity and inclination including lunar and relativistic contributions. This secular system is numerically integrated over 30 million years. A modified Fourier analysis is performed to obtain a solution for the secular evolution of the orbits on a quasi-periodical form. Comparison with Bretagnon's ephemeris VSOP82 allows to derive uncertainties for the determination of the main frequencies of the secular system. Comparisons are made with the results of long term numerical integrations of Applegate et al. (1986) and Carpino et al. (1986) and with the analytical theory of Bretagnon (1974, 1984). The solutions of the outer solar system appear to be more stable than the solutions of the inner solar system.
