[Matplotlib-users] update to: I can not get matplotlib to work on a windows xp professional machine

[Mitchell, G. \(Gary\) <gm...@ag...>]

I have installed the following versions of packages
=20
matplotlib 0.87.1
numpy 0.9.5
scipy 0.4.6
GTK- Runtime-Environment-2.2.4-3
pygtk-2.8.4-1 and python does not exit but I had to go get =
libglib-2.0-0.dll,iconv.dll and intl.dll when I try to use GTKAgg =
backend.  It still gets an error stating the procedure entry point =
g_assert_warning could not be located in the dynamic link library =
libglib-2.0-0.dll.
So I seem to be getting  further but... does anybody know why python =
could not find the above dll's and how to they get installed?  It would =
seem I need another package??
Regards
Gary

Hello,
I have installed python 2.4.2 with numpy and scipy installed and when I =
try to import pylab, I get:=20
python.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry =
for the inconvenience.

Has any one seen this issue?  I just started using python so am not sure =
what to do.  I installed pygtk and freetype and set the matplotlibrc =
file to:

#### CONFIGURATION BEGINS HERE
# the default backend; one of GTK GTKAgg GTKCairo FltkAgg QtAgg TkAgg=20
#     Agg Cairo GD GDK Paint PS SVG Template
backend      : GTKAgg=20
numerix      : numpy      # numpy, Numeric or numarray

I really would like to use matplotlib but need help solving this problem =
if any one can help it sure would be great!

Regards

Gary Mitchell
