Did you mean to write

set xtics 0.1

rather than 10?  For mxtics the number means frequency <freq> (i.e., how 
many intervals to break into), while for xtics the number means 
increment <incr> (i.e., the length of each interval).  With xtics 
increment of 10 there are no visible ticks on the x axis.
