Ok, thanks for your answers and for your patience with all our suggestions and questions. I still don't know the source of the problem but here is another round of questions:

1. Maybe the problem has to do with the dot in matta.COMPANY. I don't know if it's possible for you to test Spyder with a different user folder.

2. Another problem could be that you have installed an old Spyder version (say 2.1.9) and that you're trying to run the latest one with bootstrap.py. A modules mismatch could cause the crash. If that's the case, please uninstall the old one.

3. Using hg bisect, what's *exactly* the last revision which gives you a functional Spyder? I'm sorry but it wasn't clear for me from your post. It would be really helpful if we could identify which commit from the ones I merged is the one giving you this trouble.

4. Please find the folder .spyder2 inside your user folder and inside it look for the file .spyder.ini. Then look for the lines:

open_python_at_startup
open_ipython_at_startup

and set them both to false. Then tell us what happens when you start Spyder again.

5. Please clone the latest 2.1 repo with:

$ hg clone https://code.google.com/p/spyderlib.v21/

and then tell us what happens when you try to run Spyder from this repo.

Thanks again for all your help.

Cheers,
Carlos
