I initially had problems with numpy/scipy as I forgot to delete the build directories. After doing so & recompiling they both passed all tests (barring some known issues with windows & arctan - http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.python.numeric.general/31967) x = randn(100) worked fine and returned expected results for .mean() and .std() the segfault only occurred upon calling the plot(x). I resolved the issue by compiling matplotlib from source on my windows box which I'm happy to report wasn't too difficult! It seems to work for my usual interactive use however it segfaults when running the tests :| http://pastebin.com/m5ee30885 HTH, Dave ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
