Very specific KDE errors. Sorry can't comment on these errors.

Have not tried savefig or other backend. (Have to learn how to use
savefig first)

These are easy. Within IPython -pylab run your script with run myscript.py
. Then do a plt.savefig("myplot.png") or whatever extension available to
you. To change the backend go into your .matplotlib directory and edit
matplotlibrc file. Find backend keyword and experiment with the available
backends to see if you can reproduce that error.

savefig works fine.

Using 'gtk' backend I can save, but seems to have other problems.

Using recommended TkAgg I get error that
ImportError: No module named backend_tkagg

You will have to make some installations to bring TkAgg alive. I would suggest trying also the Qt4Agg backend since KDE based on Qt. It is always a good idea to use the package manager for these. Let me know if this helps.
