Are widgets in metakernel_python supposed to work?

Hi,
this issue (#12) sounded like the basic widget functionality should be working with metakernel. However, the Python metakernel does not display widgets while the IPykernel does:
Is this an issue with my system, or does it reflect the current state of developments?
Something must have changed. I will look into it. Thanks for reporting!
I noticed that there are some errors in the firefox console for metakernel python, which are weird because I can access the files by the given URLs in the browser.

And then, there is a whole bunch of these errors here, but seems the files under /home/takluyver/Code/ are actually not there.

None of these show up with IPython. Hope this helps :)
Finally got some time to look into this. It appears that since ipywidgets and ipython have been separated a bit, the formatters are no longer registered with IPythonDisplayFormatter. I think we need to register the widgets with the formatter, and then we'll be ok (on the front end). Anyone have any ideas?
This has been fixed in 0.25.0. Can close this.
