I am not a mac user and have no experience to use VM so that I cannot really
help you.
However, I will tell you that the below points.
1. You seem to run Ubuntu on VM. What version of Ubuntu do you use? 16.04?
2. You did not write about graphics_toolkit.
(1) Did you try
graphics_toolkit qt
or
graphics_toolkit fltk?
(2) If you use gnuplot graphics_toolkit, you probably use gnuplot on Ubuntu.
What version of gnuplot do you use ?
