Hi, I am trying to use matplotlib non-interactively but if I don't have DISPLAY set then wx barfs even though I have tried forcing the backend, etc..
eg.. [midget 16:51] ~/projects/beermon >python Python 2.5.1 (r251:54863, Aug 14 2007, 11:27:14) [GCC 3.4.6 [FreeBSD] 20060305] on freebsd6 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import pylab, matplotlib matplotlib.use>>> matplotlib.use('agg') >>> fig = pylab.figure() Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> File "/usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/pylab.py", line 859, in figure figManager = new_figure_manager(num, figsize=figsize, dpi=dpi, facecolor=facecolor, edgecolor=edgecolor, frameon=frameon, FigureClass=FigureClass, **kwargs) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/backends/backend_wxagg.py", line 134, in new_figure_manager backend_wx.wxapp = wx.PySimpleApp() File "/usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/wx-2.6-gtk2-unicode/wx/_core.py", line 7791, in __init__ wx.App.__init__(self, redirect, filename, useBestVisual, clearSigInt) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/wx-2.6-gtk2-unicode/wx/_core.py", line 7700, in __init__ self._BootstrapApp() File "/usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/wx-2.6-gtk2-unicode/wx/_core.py", line 7352, in _BootstrapApp return _core_.PyApp__BootstrapApp(*args, **kwargs) SystemError: wxEntryStart failed, unable to initialize wxWidgets! (Is DISPLAY set properly?) Same problem if I try Cairo. I had a google but no luck, can anyone help me out?
