Two suggestions (just covering incompletely that I have no real idea atm): 1) Try to import it from CPython (meaning $python -c "import pylab" or $python CR >>> import pylab). Might be that ipython is the culprit. 2) Try >>> import matplotlib.pylab instead. When your pylab module may come from somewhere else than the mpl module you're importing. You didn't have matplotlib installed before, or have made some other notable changes to your system? What Python distro do you use?
