Yeah, let's all thanks Ubuntu for the its attention to quality and
well-prepared transitions...

On Debian,

$ python2.6
Python 2.6.5rc2 (r265rc2:78822, Mar 11 2010, 16:48:00)
[GCC 4.4.3] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from pylab import randn, hist, show
>>> x = randn(10000)
>>> hist(x, 100)
>>> show()

works as expected

$ python2.6 -c "import matplotlib ; print matplotlib.__version__"
0.99.1.1

Wouldn't you want to run ipython instead of python?
