In fact I have used to use the libsvm pything interface and where giving 
a parameter linear or rbf it was not matter so much at least for my 
data, i.e. Automated Genre Identification for web pages in particular 
the Santini's corpus. However, since I am trying to do some high scale 
tests python structures like lists or indices used by this interfce are 
not sufficient. So I had to go to numpy/scipy/pytables and of course 
scikits way.

In addition, for more that 10000 feature in practice most of the time 
linear kernel works better compare to other kernels. I seem that this 
has to do with the overfishing issues and the data are so sparse due to 
the huge space of features where they are projected that hyperplane 
seems sufficient or even better choice. So, I just used this rule of 
thumb for OneClassSVM. I am not sure thought and everything is under 
investigation.

I will try the lowlevel svm I hope the bug will be fixed soon.

Dimitrios
