Please use Reply All to keep the mailing list in on the conversation.

I meant did you install Octave using the .exe or .zip installers.
Either method you used for the package should work correctly if it's a
package that can be installed in the Windows version. Are other
packages working ok?

 It doesn't say explicitly, but the wiki seems to indicate that you
are correct regarding Linux.
