Sorry have not responded re this earlier - I have been off the air for a few days.
First here are the debug outputs from the tests suggested by John. http://www.nabble.com/file/p17584892/Agg.log Agg.log http://www.nabble.com/file/p17584892/PS.log PS.log http://www.nabble.com/file/p17584892/TkAgg.log TkAgg.log http://www.nabble.com/file/p17584892/GTK.log GTK.log Of these: TkAgg fails with segmentation fault GTK : No module named gobject (guess I'm not set up for GTK) Agg and PS don't error, but dont appear to generate any output. Secondly, regarding Mike's suggestion: I'm keen to try out the maintenance release with bugfix as suggested.. Some advice on downloading pls.... Do I use subversion to download that release..? Or is there a '.tar.gz' that I can download. ?
