i have revisited py-selenium (2.44.0) again after some time, and it seems to be working, no patching whatsoever:
$ virtualenv selenium && cd selenium $ . bin/activate (selenium)$ pip install selenium ... (selenium)$ python test.py Google cheese! - Google zoeken test.py is the example program from docs.seleniumhq.org/docs/03_webdriver.jsp "Introducing the Selenium-WebDriver API by Example" the only thing it was really picky about: one and only one localhost entry in /etc/hosts for the record, the standalone jar file could run the html tests created by selenium IDE, which is nice, but limited compared to the full test suite packages offered by programming languages. -f -- i quit drinking/smoking/& sex once. very boring 15 minutes.
