I don't know how pygtk behaves if they are not installed, so don't know if that's a problem. > H:\>python > ActivePython 2.6.5.12 (ActiveState Software Inc.) based on > Python 2.6.5 (r265:79063, Mar 20 2010, 14:22:52) [MSC v.1500 32 bit > (Intel)] on win32 > Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. > >>>> import pygtk >>>> > Traceback (most recent call last): > File "<stdin>", line 1, in<module> > ImportError: No module named pygtk > While I have had problems with import gtk, I can't remeber a time when I had problem with import pygtk, it usually just works for me.

Please help. > Other than trying to also install pygobject and pycario. I can only offer the following hints for things you might like to try. 1) I have had good success using the gtk runtime installer from http://gtk-win.sourceforge.net 2) If you get to the point where you can import pygtk fine, but have trouble with 'import gtk', then I suggest you look at some Microsoft C runtime's, I have often found one of these (not sure which one) helps me on WinXP The Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package (x86) installs runtime components of Visual C++ Libraries required to run applications developed with Visual C++ on a computer that does not have Visual C++ 2008 installed. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=9B2DA534-3E03-4391-8A4D-074B9F2BC1BF&displaylang=en The Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 SP1 Redistributable Package (x86) installs runtime components of Visual C++ Libraries required to run applications developed with Visual C++ SP1 on a computer that does not have Visual C++ 2008 SP1 installed. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=A5C84275-3B97-4AB7-A40D-3802B2AF5FC2&displaylang=en Good luck, keep us informed - Steve _______________________________________________ pygtk mailing list [email protected] http://www.daa.com.au/mailman/listinfo/pygtk Read the PyGTK FAQ: http://faq.pygtk.org/
