Hi,
I installed matplotlib and only the root user can execute a matplotlib
script without freezing the computer. Under root, everything seem
working well. As a simple user, the script freeze without displaying
anything and only a kill signal can stop the process.
I tried GTK and GTKagg backend and nothing changes. The same thing
append at a plot call in interactive mode.
Someone have an idea of what is going on ?
Thanks,
