Still bad news though I think. There is no package containing the wxPython headers, so even with wx-config you can't compile on ubuntu.=20 There was a bug posted a while ago, but it doesn't look like it made the release. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=3D71395&highlight=3DwxPython.h If anybody knows differently, please share. - Charlie On 10/18/05, Charlie Moad <cw...@gm...> wrote: > Install libwxgtk2.6-dev > > On 10/18/05, Ryan Krauss <rya...@gm...> wrote: > > I am trying to build mpl on a ubuntu Breezy box and I am getting the me= ssage: > > WXAgg's accelerator requires `wx-config'. > > What is wx-config and where do I get it?

The work-around (for debian sarge) is wget http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/w/wxwindows2.4/wxwindows2.4_2.4.3.1.tar.gz tar xzf wxwindows2.4_2.4.3.1.tar.gz su mkdir /usr/include/wx/wxPython/ cp wxwindows2.4-2.4.3.1/wxPython/src/*.h /usr/include/wx/wxPython/ For ubuntu it should work similarly (you can also replace the wget by a corresponding apt-get command fetching the source).

There has been some discussion of this in this group recently, try searching the archives. > What is wx-config and where do I get it? wx-config is a little program that returns the various include and linking directories needed to build something against the wxWidgets library, It should be distributed with the wxPython "devel" package. I don't know if there is an ubuntu package for that, but I'd look for it. -Chris -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer NOAA/OR&R/HAZMAT (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception Chr...@no...

Thanks to Arnd and Chris I think I am getting close. I can now compile without any error messages that I see. But then I run a script that plots something using WXAgg I get this message that keeps coming up every few seconds after the script has run: ** (python:8999): WARNING **: IPP request failed with status 1030 Running the same script with the TkAgg backend does not produce this error. Either backend produces the same nice looking plots. What do I do next?

Charlies, Chris, and Arnd: thanks for your prompt responses to Ryan's question! I'll write up a cookbook entry on the topic tomorrow. I've known about the missing wxPython headers for some time and have been corresponding with the Debian package maintainer about it. Apparently the headers weren't getting installed in 2.6 due to some Extreme Cleverness on the part of wxPython's "setup.py" and in 2.4 there wasn't even an attempt to install them. Last Thursday I filed patches on sourceforge, so hopefully this'll get fixed sometime soon. Ken
I still haven't gotten any input on the ** (python:8999): WARNING **: IPP request failed with status 1030 message. Anyone know why the WXAgg backend is causing this and how to get rid of it.

Apparently, whatever this problem is, it is caused by calling pylab.figure(= #) In [1]: pylab.figure(1) ** (python:8692): WARNING **: IPP request failed with status 1030 Out[1]: <matplotlib.figure.Figure instance at 0xb517f02c> I can recreate this without any script with just that one command. I am running matplotlib 0.84, IPython 0.6.16_cvs, and scipy 0.3.3_309.4626 on ubunut Breezy 5.10. Any thoughts?

If the script is more complicated than "plot_something(); show()", could you please send a copy of it? Thanks. Ken

I'm on a roll today: when I sent that reply I hadn't seen your latest email. Anyways, I have been unable to reproduce this problem under Debian sarge (wxPython 2.4). I don't think I have access to a Ubuntu box, but I will check to see if the problem also exists under Debian sid (wxPython 2.6). Ken

Apparently I can't spell this morning either. That should be "_use_accelerator()". Sorry! :-/ Ken
So, turning off the accelerator with wxPygtk2.6 did not solve this problem: In [2]: wx.VERSION Out[2]: (2, 6, 1, 1, 'pre') In [3]: import matplotlib.backends.backend_wxagg In [4]: matplotlib.backends.backend_wxagg._use_accelerator(False) In [5]: pylab.figure(1) ** (python:11782): WARNING **: IPP request failed with status 1030 Out[5]: <matplotlib.figure.Figure instance at 0xb52048ec> Ryan On 10/20/05, Ken McIvor <mc...@ii...> wrote: > On Oct 20, 2005, at 11:48 AM, Ryan Krauss wrote: > > But when I try and turn off the accelerator I get: > > In [4]: import matplotlib.backends.backend_wxagg > > > > In [5]: matplotlib.backends.backend_wxagg._use_accelertor(False) > > I misspelled "accelerator" in my earlier email.

If I had to guess, I'd say that wxWidgets is trying to talk to CUPS at startup to initialize the printing subsystem. Could you please email me the output from the following command? It's probably going to be too big and verbose to be worth posting to the list, so send it to me directly. $ strace python -c 'import pylab; pylab.figure(1)' > strace.txt 2>&1 Ken
Charlie, IIRC, you were working on a Cocoa back-end for MPL a while back. How's that coming? If it was someone else, please speak up! -Chris -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer NOAA/OR&R/HAZMAT (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception Chr...@no...
Well, it is there and it works. There is no toolbar, and the save image button is not implemented. I really haven't had access to a mac in a while, so there hasn't been much development. I basically figured out the hard part of how to do the agg buffer to NSImage bridge. The rest of the perks should be pretty simple. The code is in backend_cocoaagg.py and the nib files are in the backends folder. - Charlie On 12/27/05, Christopher Barker <Chr...@no...> wrote: > Charlie, > > IIRC, you were working on a Cocoa back-end for MPL a while back.
