Hi, does anybody know why I'm getting this error importing pylab? Thanks in advance!

It appears that matplotlib is having trouble finding the freetype
dynamic lib in your /usr/X11R6/lib folder when it references it. I'd
check that folder to see if the dylib is there. If it isn't, reinstall
the X11 dev tools. If it is, something is wrong with the dynamic lib
opening, so I'd recommend removing matplotlib from your
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/site-packages
folder and doing a fresh build/install.
