See also bug #48197 which references a StackOverflow thread that may have helped resolve a similar problem for that user.

OpenGL graphics are notoriously fragile on Mac OS X. Try switching to the gnuplot toolkit.

If that works, add the first line which sets the graphics toolkit to your .octaverc file. After that, every invocation of Octave will use gnuplot.

Hi there,

Got a new mac and tried to install Octave. Computing works but octave just crashes when I even just ask for plot(1:10).

I've used Homebrew and followed all steps on the wiki page.

Does anyone has issues with the newest octave and gnu ?
Thanks

Audrey

that was the crash report from apple
