I have cross posted this at Stackoverflow.com

I installed `python 2.7.2` from `ActiveState` and then installed `matplotlib` 
from the sources. I getting errors when I tried a simple plotting procedure to 
test it.

The error is similar to the one described here 
(http://code.google.com/p/cing/issues/detail?id=268) but it is for Macintosh. I 
work on a Linux machine and the info about machine is given below:

    % cat /etc/redhat-release 
    CentOS release 4.6 (Final)
    
    % uname -a
    Linux scdbuild04 2.6.9-67.ELsmp #1 SMP Fri Nov 16 12:49:06 EST 2007 x86_64 
x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux


The error is produced by:

    % python

Can some one help me fix this error?

Thanks
