I'm new to Linux and Octave and have been trying to install the octave-forge

I had a similar problem. There were two issues:
1. Get the right version of octave-forge. Each release of
octave-forge is for a specific version of Octave. It's noted on
the page, but it took me a couple of downloads to get it
right... :-)
A CVS snapshot should compile for 2.1.36 and up.
