ipython qtconsole no cursor, frozen?
i've installed ipython and ipython qtconsole ion Ubuntu 12.04. I have 2 icons in my apps menu, 1 for each. When i click on the ipython icon, nothing seems to happen. When i click on the qtconsole it opens but no cursor or prompt appears. Don't believe it's frozen, the menu opens and i can choose help etc, but no cursor or anyway to interact with the beast.
When it opens i get this displied:
Python 2.7.3 (default, Apr 20 2012, 22:44:07)
Type "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
IPython 0.12.1 -- An enhanced Interactive Python.
? -> Introduction and overview of IPython's features.
%quickref -> Quick reference.
help -> Python's own help system.
object? -> Details about 'object', use 'object??' for extra details.
%guiref -> A brief reference about the graphical user interface.
Tried the Terminal, ipython works fine and qtconsole opens but once again no prompt or cursor. get this error msg.

Isn't argparse part of the standard library?
