I have installed Octave using the following commands: sudo apt-add-repository ppa:octave/stable sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install octave Typing octave --no-gui in the shell launches Octave command line. However, if I try opening octave GUI by typing octave or octave --force-gui, octave icon appears in the sidebar, and nothing else happens (no error message, either) and octave doesn't launch. Clicking on the icon doesn't do anything either. I have tried following the accepted answer to this similar question, but when I write > cd .config/octave I get the following message: > bash: cd: .config/octave: No such file or directory Thanks.
