It appears that you are trying to run a FiPy 3.0 example with an earlier 
installation of FiPy. We do not maintain (or even use) the MatForge Live CD and 
I don't know how old it is. The FiPyWorkbook wiki was contributed by one of 
FiPy's users, Will Gathright, over two years ago, so I would guess that the 
Live CD might be that old, too. You can try running:

 python -c "import fipy; print fipy.__version__"

Please see the canonical installation instructions at 
http://www.ctcms.nist.gov/fipy/INSTALLATION.html
