Hi Matthias, can you post the results of running the following: import matplotlib import IPython print matplotlib.get_backend() print matplotlib.__version__ print IPython.__version__ If you are trying IPython 0.11, this is a known issue as of 3 months ago [1]. There were also similar issues reported with using GTK [2], which I believe were addressed in [3], and are waiting to be merged. 1. https://github.com/ipython/ipython/issues/#issue/202 2. https://github.com/ipython/ipython/issues/#issue/185 3. https://github.com/ipython/ipython/pull/237 best, -- Paul Ivanov 314 address only used for lists, off-list direct email at: http://pirsquared.org | GPG/PGP key id: 0x0F3E28F7
