Try invoking gnuplot from the command line and asking for help. Then,
you can use Octave 'gset' to set the option you want. E.g.:

[jcard] gnuplot

        G N U P L O T
        Unix version 3.7
        patchlevel 0
 ...

Terminal type set to 'x11'
gnuplot> help set line
Each terminal has a default set of line and point types, which can be
seen
 by using the command `test`.  `set linestyle` defines a set of line
types
 and widths and point types and sizes so that you can refer to them
later by
 an index instead of repeating all the information at each invocation.

 Syntax:
       set linestyle <index> {linetype | lt <line_type>}
                             {linewidth | lw <line_width>}
                             {pointtype | pt <point_type>}
                             {pointsize | ps <point_size>}
       set nolinestyle
       show linestyle


etc...

I think that you can't set the linewidth for X11; however, when you
print your plots they will have the correct linewidth
