Dear colleagues, 

 I've decided to upgrade my matpoltlib installation under a RedHat 6.4 
Linux, by removing the original yum package and installing latest version 
of Numpy 18.1 and Matplotlib 1.3.1. 
My Python is still 2.6.6. The manual installation from source completed 
successfully, but when calling a sample code, the execution starts and 
stops silently with no error message. 
I guess some configuration is missing to define the graphical backend 
configuration, among one of the valid choices: 

I ve tried to set the backend by the commands: 

import matplotlib
matplotlib.use('backend_name')

list of suported backends (template)
# ['GTK', 'GTKAgg', 'GTKCairo', 'MacOSX', 'Qt4Agg', 'TkAgg', 'WX', 
'WXAgg', 'CocoaAgg', 'GTK3Cairo', 'GTK3Agg', 'WebAgg', #'agg', 'cairo', 
'emf', 'gdk', 'pdf', 'pgf', 'ps', 'svg', 'template']

By testing I was not able to identify a working backend for Redhat, so 
there might be some missing install dependency in case of a manual 
install.  Could your please give me some 
hints what's missing to activate the graphical interface at  RedHat Linix. 


Regards, 
Claude
