Re: Octave install and initial program.

[Roger Moore]

Hi,

      I have just install Octave onto my Laptop "sudo yum install octave", which was successful. So, now I have >octave -v = GNU Octave 3.8.2

I have download some ecg data and created a single column file with the data, out.txt.

I can load it.

> load "out.txt";

>

>x=out(1:1000,1);

>

>x

x =

-0.06000

-0.06500 etc ...

>plot(x);

Panic: Segmentation fault -- Stopping myself...

attempting to save variables to 'octave-workspace'...

save to 'octave-workspace' complete

Segmentation fault (core dumped)

[ ]$

The plot brings up a GUI, but crashes soon after.

Any ideas?

Regards,

Roger Moore.
