<div dir="ltr">I'm still really struggling to get any paths frommvpa2.cfg outside of those specific ipython notebooks, even when I try running it from Qt console.

</span>sorry<br>
since it seems that you are using Debian-based system and thus installed<br>
already python-mvpa2 package. Now<br>
<br>
sudo apt-get install python-mvpa2-tutorialdata python-mvpa2-doc<br>
<br>
NB you might need to enable <a href="http://neuro.debian.net" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://neuro.debian.net</a> repository if you<br>
haven't yet<br>
<br>
and just type<br>
<br>
pymvpa2-tutorial --use-notebook<br>
<br>
and see what happens ;)<br>
<br>
Data under /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/mvpa2/data/ is just for<br>
testing, not sufficient for tutorials<br>
