warining with ipython

Friends,
I started pylab with ipython -pylab

After some time, i did

In [21]: import matplotlib
Warning: Timeout for mainloop thread exceeded
switching to nonthreaded mode (until mainloop wakes up again)

Why this warning comes ?

Even when i exit with ctrl + d, the shell is still remaining.

Thanks,
Bala

Hi Bala,

Friends,
I started pylab with ipython -pylab

I think it would help if you can also specify what version of ipython
and matplotlib you're using, as long as what backend is configured to
be used.

After some time, i did

In [21]: import matplotlib
Warning: Timeout for mainloop thread exceeded
switching to nonthreaded mode (until mainloop wakes up again)

Why this warning comes ?

I think this is something related to the graphical backend used, or
maybe a mixture from the default one and the one set by hand in this
session.

Hi,

Version informations
Python 2.5.2
IPython 0.8.4
matplotlib 0.98.1

this is a rather old version, you might want to try to upgrade to
0.98.5.2 or a near release.

backend GTKAgg
Running on Fedora10

could you please provide a simple script (along with configuration
files that applies to your executions) to replicate the issue? I can
speculate there some GUI mixture, but with code in front it's easier
:slight_smile:

Cheers,

Hi,

I was nt running any script of my own. This warning came when i was working on matplotlib-pyplot tutorials (simple plot and multiple line plots).
