I know , sage comes with its own ,matplotlib , thats why i ask this question , i'm not dumb !!!
anyway , i'm sticking with sympy as of now for symbolic calculations , there was no such turning off GUI by default of matplotlib in previous sage releases , may be it is due to "opencore" stratergy of Sage-devels , i'm fine with that , and as far as sage -sh install pygtk , installation starts , dep-resolves happen and gives another bunch of errors (as i said , i searched for this particular problem on ask sage , but the workarounds didn't work) , i can track-them down and ask questions about it on this list , and workaround this problem , but i dont want to!! , never mind , the dream of opensource mathematica is over for me , i'll stick to maxima when really needed.
