Hello list,

the little example below seems to fail, can anybody help me? 
I'm on Debian using the release 0.91.2.

best regards and thanks in advance for any hints,
Matthias

from matplotlib.ticker import ScalarFormatter
from matplotlib.pyplot import *

ax = axes()
axis([0.0, 10**-7, 0, 10**-7])

ax.yaxis.set_major_formatter(ScalarFormatter(useMathText=True))

show()
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
error message:
/scratch/michler/SOFT/lib/python2.4/site-packages/matplotlib/mathtext.py:722: 
MathTextWarning: Unrecognized symbol '\times'. Substituting with a dummy 
symbol. 
  % sym.encode('ascii', 'backslashreplace'), MathTextWarning)


the string '\times' is due to line 
  sciNotStr = r'{\times}'+self.format_data(10**self.orderOfMagnitude)
in function ScalarFormatter.get_offset
