Did a git clone git://github.com/jakevdp/sklearn_pycon2014.git Today (May 5th 2014) and ran

cd sklearn_pycon2014/notebooks/
ipython notebook

And was greeted with this blank notebook after clicking on the verification section,

blank_notebook

These are the console warnings that show up.

This requires IPython 0.13 or better; I'd recommend upgrading to 2.0.

rawrgulmuffins commented

Ahh, apt-get in ubuntu 12.04 installs 0.12. pip it is.

If you're going to be doing much with scientific computing in Python, I'd highly recommend using conda: download miniconda and then run

[~]$ conda update conda
[~]$ conda install numpy scipy matplotlib ipython-notebook scikit-learn

and you'll be set to go.

Thanks for taking to time to reply and thanks for the heads up on conda.
