Did you build Sage from source, or download a binary package? What platform 
are you using?

You could try this, but I don't know if it will work: from a shell,

   $ export SAGE_MATPLOTLIB_GUI=yes
   $ sage -f http://sagemath.org/packages/standard/matplotlib-1.1.0.spkg

(or if you built from source: replace the last line with "sage -f 
matplotlib", or rebuild Sage from scratch with SAGE_MATPLOTLIB_GUI=yes from 
the start).
