    gnuplot & x11 DIR problem?

    Hi, all,

    I have installed 'gnuplot' under /home/UP/gnuplot/
    but X11 can not be started,
    and I got the error:
    Terminal type set to 'x11'
    gnuplot> plot sin(x)
    Expected X11 driver: /usr/local/libexec/gnuplot/4.0/gnuplot_x11
    Exec failed: No such file or directory
    See 'help x11' for more details
    In any case I have done:
    (1) ./configure --prefix=/home/UP/gnuplot --libexecdir='/home/UP/gnuplot/libexec'

    (2) make X11_DRIVER_DIR='/home/UP/gnuplot/libexec/gnuplot/4.0'

    (3) make install
    Could you tell me, was's wrong ?
    Thank you very much & greetings

    you might try installing the package "the debian way"
    Code:
    apt-get install gnuplot
