I installed x11vnc and ssvnc for remote desktop and noticed that gnuplot invoked from a terminal opened via ssh gives the above error while that invoked from a terminal opened via 'Applications > System Tools > Terminal' (remote desktop) doesn't have this problem.
What could be the reason behind this?
