[Gnuplot-info] help: no graph terminal pops up

[Damian A S. P. <da...@MI...>]

 Dear all,

 I have installed gnuplot-4.0.0 following the default
 procedure (./configure, make, make install) in a Red-Hat
 Enterprise environment. The installation ends without
 errors, but when I execute the program under X-windows I get
 the message "Terminal type set to 'unknown'" preceding
 the prompt, and no graphics window pops up when I
 enter "plot ..." (i.e. plot sin(x)) at the command line.

 I see a bunch of options if I type "set terminal", but
 no X11 or equivalent.

 I have also tried ./configure --with-x, but still the same.
 Any help will be greatly appreciated.
 Thanks!
