Problems plotting on Mac OS X 10.4

Hello,

I've found two problems using Octave on my new Intel Mac.

First, I'm having a problem with the figure command: I get this error after
typing "figure" at the octave command prompt.

dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.6.dylib
  Referenced from: /usr/local/libexec/gnuplot/4.0/gnuplot_x11
  Reason: image not found

Second, when I try to use the print command to send the plot to
a pdf, I get this:

sh: line 1: kpsexpand: command not found

gnuplot> set term pdf;
                  ^
line 0: unknown or ambiguous terminal type; type just 'set terminal' for a list

warning: in /usr/local/share/octave/2.1.73/site/m/octave-forge/plot/ gget.m near line 55, column 3:
warning: connection to external plotter (pid = 6898) lost --
warning: please try your plot command(s) again
warning: broken pipe -- some output may be lost
error: gnuplot not responding

Here are the version numbers:

Octave 2.1.73 (i386-apple-darwin8.5.3).
OS X 10.4.6
AquaTerm v1.0 (1.0)
gnuplot version 4.0, patchlevel 0
X11 ? (I can't find it--is this part of the problem?)

Thanks for your help!
