Some of my colleagues have run out of my directory before. * what backend are they using? * what test script are they trying (I suggest examples/pylab_examples/simple_plot.py * what is the output of --verbose-debug when the other users run this script? * does it help to try different backends, eg if they run the script with -dTKAgg, -dWXAgg, -dQt4Agg or -dGTKAgg * what are the permissions on your install directory -- can the other uses see all the files? * what version of matplotlib are you using? What platform (you say linux, but when reporting problems it helps to include as much detail as possible). Are the users running from the console or an X11 session?
