$ ./ex1.py 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./ex1.py", line 63, in ?
    main()
  File "./ex1.py", line 24, in main
    surface = cairo.ImageSurface.create_for_data(data,
cairo.FORMAT_ARGB32,
AttributeError: type object 'cairo.ImageSurface' has no attribute
'create_for_data'

Seems the current python bindings of cairo do not have this function :)

*sighs* I'll wait for the next release :)

cheers
