I am also using Python 2.2.1 w/ Tkinter on RH 8.0 and have no
problems at all. (Many of my apps use 'from Tkinter import *' etc.)

Are you sure you really did install all necessary RPMs?

When installing RH 8.0, I did not use one of the predefined
setups like 'Personal Desktop' or 'Workstation', but did a
customized install. So I do not know if Tcl, Tk, Tix and
Tkinter will be installed when you use a predefined setup.
(You know that you need Tcl/Tk for Tkinter, don't you? And
RH 8.0 wants Tix to be installed together with Tk.)

It might be helpful to post your exact error-message (traceback).
