Hi, Today I tried to run some code in my new notebook, but I only got blank figures and high CPU usage as a result. This code did run on my previous laptop. I can reproduce this behavior with the following code at the bottom of this message. The backtrace (also at the bottom this message) points to show() as the cause of the problem. The reason I have show() at the top is because in my code the call to plot() is done within a loop (I reuse the same figure for multiple plots). I still have to check all software versions in detail from the older laptop, but I wanted to ask here in case this was a known problem. I have ipython from git, and matplotlib 1.0, this is a 64 bit OS (Ubuntu 10.10). Matplotlib was installed from source. In the other laptop (Ubuntu 10.4, 32 bits) there's also ipython from git (although an older revision) and matplotlib 1.0 compiled from source.
