I've got matplotlib working on two computers. One of them just has the default matplotlibrc where fink installed it. On the other one, I've got a matplotlibrc in ~/.matplotlib/ so I could customize its behaviour. Both work fine for me.

There is a debug setting at the end of matplotlibrc. It is set to silent by default, but maybe it'll spit out something diagnostic if you set it to debug, or debug-annoying. Sometimes I can find useful clues in the Console.app console.log, or system.log.

Maybe a rebuild of python24, and/or matplotlib is in order, being sure to have moved /usr/local out of the way first, so as not to pollute the builds.

Good luck,

Kevin

I have tried, with the same results, using python as a command from an X11 terminal, and entering the commands into the IDLE started from an X11 terminal. I have tried to put a matplotrc file in various spots, and I have tried making the change to TkAgg. When I do the latter, a window quickly pops and and closes with nothing in it, and then I get a restart in the IDLE.

I have installed and run biggles successfully, so whatever they do for graphics windos is working.

Confirm you are running those commands from an X11 xterm and not Terminal.app.
