I also have this problem with ipython & natty. Even if TkAgg works fine, not being able to use GTK(Agg) means that figures cannot be saved directly as jpg's - which is a problem when you want to save a lot (10000's) of 2D plots without using too much disk space.
Also, I can't seem to be able tu use the wx backend either.. Is there any other workaround ?
