Installed cygwin with gnuplot, X11, and octave.

Octave will not run the 'sombrero' demo plot.

Have removed c:\cygwin and reinstalled; have attempted previous releases 
of cygwin and octave.
Yes, I needed to use ash and do
             $ ./rebaseall
to get startx to work.

Now octave no longer opens, no error messages are issued just returns to 
the shell prompt.

This is on XP sp 3. 

Thanks for any help,

Doug
