hi
I am running python 2.5 and installing the matplotlib using synaptic so it is installing the correct version (I assume). After installing matplotlib, In the help(), this is what i get when asking for the modules liist:
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site.py", line 342, in __call__
return pydoc.help(*args, **kwds)
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/pydoc.py", line 1649, in __call__
self.interact()
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/pydoc.py", line 1667, in interact
self.help(request)
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/pydoc.py", line 1683, in help
elif request == 'modules': self.listmodules()
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/pydoc.py", line 1804, in listmodules
ModuleScanner().run(callback)

File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/config/cutils.py", line 125, in _get_data_path
raise RuntimeError('Could not find the matplotlib data files')
RuntimeError: Could not find the matplotlib data files
if I try import pylab, this is what I get:

I don't see this myself. Are you running the correct Python (not
accidentally running Python2.4, for example)? Do you have a
/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib directory? What is the
exact error message when you import pylab?
Cheers,
Mike
