Re: [Matplotlib-users] problem with import pylab

[Erik T. <eri...@gm...>]

Just based on the traceback, the problem seems to be in Tk - does anything
in tk work for you? (e.g. any of the builtin python gui stuff)  You might
try installing wx and changing your matplotlibrc file to have the line
"backend:WxAgg" in it.  I've never tried using the wx backend on windows
(anyone done this?), but presumably it should work...
