Hi Jack, is C:\MinGW\wxWidgets-2.8.9 the path, where all the source of wxWidgets can be found and how did you build wxWidgets?
To get more information find the debug message macro (something like dbg_msg or so) in FindwxWidgets.cmake and uncomment the relevant lines, you'll get a lot of debug messages then. Could you send us the *complete* output (offlist if you wish) of cmake, so that I can have a look, what cmake is doing - with the debug messages it's even more useful. One thing I spot immediately is that > -DwxWidgets_LIB_DIR=C:\MinGW\wxWidgets-2.8.9\lib must be > -DwxWidgets_LIB_DIR=C:\MinGW\wxWidgets-2.8.9\lib\gcc_dll if you build wxWidgets as shared (which you must do if you want to use plplot in your wxWidgets application, but not if you just use the driver). You can also omit the last option, if you use cmake 2.6.4 this directory will be chosen automatically based on wxWidgets_ROOT_DIR.
