[Matplotlib-users] matplotlib, ipython and ubuntu

[Andy C. <And...@br...>]

Hi people

I'm trying to use matplotlib, ipython and xubuntu(gusty) all together. 
Whenever I try to run ipython with -pylab tab, nothing extra happens to 
the start up screen and pylab hasn't been imported. I have managed to 
sucessfull install ipython and matplotlib on a Redhat system and ipython 
  -pylab works. ipython and matplotlib work btw

I've tried install from source, apt and easy_install all to to avail

Can anyone suggest what I am doing wrong or an output to post to show 
more details of what is happening on my machine

Thanks

Andy
