Seems a good use case for multi-thread, try something like this :

In [28]: import Tix

In [29]: main=Tix.Tk()

In [30]: p=Tix.Meter(main)

In [31]: p.pack()

In [32]: def process(progress) :
   ....:     from time import sleep
   ....:     for i in range(10) :
   ....:         sleep(1)
   ....:         p.configure(value=float(p.cget('value'))+0.1)
   ....:
   ....:


In [33]: import thread

In [34]: thread.start_new_thread(process, (p,)) and main.mainloop()

Of course the last line is tricky, the thread should be started by the 
App(Tix.Tk) mainloop.
