Ben, are you seeing the same problems? it's not exactly monitory, but I disable all the requests to matplotlib.svn.sourceforge.net via iptables: sudo iptables -A OUTPUT -d matplotlib.svn.sourceforge.net -j DROP and you're sure nothing passes towards that address :) and in fact, the moment you reach an example with get_sample_data() it stops. -- Sandro Tosi (aka morph, morpheus, matrixhasu) My website: http://matrixhasu.altervista.org/ Me at Debian: http://wiki.debian.org/SandroTosi
