Hi, I have just spent a long time getting a version of scipy installed on my powerbook G4 . I am a newbie to python and the whole unix thing so I have found the whole ordeal rather difficult, but interesting! All seemed lost until I found the package by Peter Maxwell at: http://cbis.anu.edu.au/misc/SciPy_complete-0.3.2.mpkg.zip I should really have looked at this list first before trying to build from the source... It all seems to work great except plotting with glplt. The program I have been testing with I know works on other machines, but doesn't work when I use it on mine. I can import scipy and the scipy.test() seems to work fine. I have reinstalled the newest version of xfree86 from fink, after deleting all previous incarnations, but it just doesn't open the window when it is supposed to, no error message is popped up either. Any clues? thanks, Ali Send instant messages to your online friends http://uk.messenger.yahoo.com
