Even if they are installed, matplotlib requires a connection to the X11 server when building the gtk backend, something that is not always available when building as root. So 1) make sure you have the proper numpy installed, as in my previous post 2) make sure you can do >>> import gtk in the same environment in which you are building and installing mpl 3) make sure you have the gtk-devel headers and libs installed, as well as the other devel libs listed on the installing pages of the web site. 4) capture stdout and stderr when you build, and post it if you encounter further problems > python setup.py build >& build.out JDH ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
