Could not resolve the problem with Mesa. Using gnuplot

graphics_toolkit ("gnuplot")

worked out in the end.

Yes this appears to be a Mesa Intel bug, possibly this one: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=80568

Either try the workaround suggested or try updating Mesa (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack if you are stuck with Ubuntu LTS).

Did you build this version of Octave from source on
your system. If so, you should check that you have
the required mesa libraries.

In any case, you will need to use the "visible off"...
sequence until that bug is fixed.

Thanks for the quick reply.
Unfortunately, I get a new error

with the workaround described in bug 46197, and the same with figure(1, "visible", "off");, see bug 45348.

This appears to be a duplicate of bug 46197.
Please try the workaround that is described there
and report if that works.

Example:

I get the same error for other formats (png, jpg,..) and also for saveas. I can however use imwrite.
The error also occurred after updating GNUplot from 4.6 to 5.0.2. I am using Ubuntu 14.04.
