I'm running octave 3.8.1, emacs 24.3.50.2, and Ubuntu 24.04.
I loaded the latest version of octave.el.
I am able to run octave from emacs as an inferior process using the 
run-octave command.

I have a problem with the graphics.  When I use the "plot" command, a 
window opens and the plot appears correctly,  The problem is that 
neither pulldown menus on the plot window nor the "x", "minimize", and 
"fullscreen" buttons in the upper right of the window frame are 
sensitive.  I therefore cannot close the window.
I can move and resize the window using the mouse, but when I resize the 
window, the plot size doesn't change.
In addition, I cannot open more than one window at a time;  if I use the 
"figure" command to open a new plot window, the old one closes.

Has anyone else noticed this bug?  Is there a fix?

Could you try start emacs with -q or -Q and then load the latest
octave.el to see if this happens again? If yes, please report it by M-x
report-emacs-bug. Thanks.

24.3.50 is an old development version of what became Emacs 24.4.
There is no reason to run that instead of the actual Emacs 24.4 release.
