Richard, in matplotlib/dates.py, change line 155 from remainder = x - ix to remainder = float(x) - ix The problem is that matplotlib uses numpy arrays for the xaxis. As you have a 64b system, the arrays are in float64scalars, that divmod doesn't know how to process (unless you have a very recent of numpy). The trick above forces a downcasting of float64scalar to float32scalar, divmod can now work. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
