How are you running octave? Interactively or from a script?
If you're using a script try adding "pause" to the end.

FWIW, I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 and this works fine for me:

address@hidden:~$ octave3.2 -q
octave3.2:1> plot(1:10)
octave3.2:2>

This will cause the plots to disappear (but it is expected):

address@hidden:~$ octave3.2 -q --eval "plot(1:10)"

and

address@hidden:~$ octave3.2 -q --eval "plot(1:10); pause"

will show the plots until you press a key in the terminal.
