I had installed python-traitsbackendwx, python-traitsgui, and not python-traitsbackendqt. I also have python-wxgtk2.8. I'm starting with ipython -wthread so it should import the wx backend. Not sure how to make sure of this when I am in ipython ? After that, I tried installing python-traitsbackendqt and starting with -qtthread and -q4thread, but I still have to use mlab.show() to get the window to be interactive. (incidentally, I also tried with a new HOME directory to avoid any issue with prior ipythonrc files - no difference as far as mlab is concerned) Vincent -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/776078 Title: Can no longer use mlab -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
