Hi, I'm trying to rum python and matlpotlib on a remote mac host from my mac laptop. Both have Mac OS/X 10.5.6 and I'm using ssh -Y ... However, the graphic window does not appear and, when I run p.show() everything gets stuck. Any insight? Thanks |

I'm now running on the MacOSX backend and the graphic window appears on the remote screen (where pyton is running) rather than on the local one (in front of which I am sitting). Any idea on how to open the graphic window with a MacOSX or TkAgg backends on the local screen while python is running remote?

Hi, I think your situation is different from mine, but just thought it might help. I have a server running linux and I use mac pro to connect to the server and export graphics from the linux server. I could get my mac pro to display the graphics from the linux server only after I start X11 on my mac pro and then use ssh -X to connect to the linux server. Wonder if you also have to do something like that when you connect. First, start X11 on your mac and then connect to your other mac (linux in my case though). Cheers, Chaitanya.

You probably don't have one, since TkAgg is native OS X and you probably don't have the pre-requisites installed to build the GTKAgg backend. You have two choices: 1) install all the pre-requisites for the GTKAgg backend (don't know what they are offhand, but they include at least gtk2, glib and pygtk2). Package management systems like fink or macports can help with this. 2) use the screen-sharing feature of Leopard to remote control your mac instead of ssh. Then you will see exactly what is on the screen of the remote mac. This will work with any backend, but may be slow and/or complicated if you have firewalls in between the macs. I do this routinely by using the python, pygtk2 and matplotlib packages installed by macports, Never had much luck with remote screen sharing because of firewall issues. -Jeff -- Jeffrey S.

I installed atk, gtk2, pango, and cairo from macports. Then I
installed pygobject-2.16.0, pycairo-1.8.2, and pygtk-2.12.1 from the
sources.
All the installations seemed smooth.
However, when I import pylab using GTKAgg as a backend, ipython tells
me that there is not pygtk (see below for the whole error message).
Any insight?
Davide

Davide: You installed pygtk into macports python - so you have to use
macports python to import it.
