It is Python 2.5.2 (r252.60911, Jan 24 2010, 14:53:14)
[GCC 4.3.2] on linux2.

I believe the Matplotlib version there is outdated or the locale is an issue.

Thanks for the help!

Luciano got in touch offline and my suggestions worked for a certain
version of Python.

Luciano, were you trying it in python3? If not, what version of Python
was it that wasn't working for you?

Thanks,
