It's not the data you're feeding to gnuplot that QT is trying to authenticate, but it is trying to authenticate your access to the session manager. If you're not running KDE as your desktop (or rather, if the KDE session manager isn't running), then this error can be ignored. If you're running KDE, but not running gnuplot as the same user, then this error can either be ignored, or use sudo to start gnuplot. Thanks for the very informative explanation. It provokes another question: I'm not running KDE. I'm running Xfce4. I do use a few packages from Gnome, e.g. gnome-terminal, but not the full blown most recent version. Should I install a different version/flavor of gnuplot that would be a better match to my way of working? Advice?
