problems with figure and subplot

[Kirsten Warrach]

Hi,

I've just installed octave-2.0.16 on my workstation (UNIX) and assured
that
it calls the gnuplot3.7 , the terminal type set to 'x11' and it is
gnuplot_has_multiplot = 1
gnuplot_has_frames = 1   
But the commands figure() and subplot() cause problems:
octave:1> figure(1)
ans = 1
octave:2>

but no figure window pops up, if I do plot(a) a window with the plot
opens, but also
when I then do figure(2) and then plot(b) it only overwrites the first
plot.

Then I tried a matlab-plotting routine with 4 subplots ( which works
well under matlab),
but it fails to draw the 3rd subplot in the right panel.

Now I wonder if anybody could help me,
thanks
